Alderman Bob Donovan Speaks to CBS 58 After Conceding to Mayor Tom Barrett

Alderman Bob Donovan lost the mayoral race in Milwaukee, with incumbent Mayor Tom Barrett taking 70% of the votes. 

Donovan a, four term alderman says he's disappointed in the mayor. 


Donovan  is known for his tough stance on crime, telling us without safety, nothing positive can occur. 


He says a major difference between him & Mayor Tom Barrett is that he wants to "urgently tackle" what he calls the real problems: safety, jobs, education & infrastructure. It's something he doesn't believe Mayor Barrett can accomplish. 

We caught part of his concession speech live, and also did a live interview with him shortly after on our 10pm newscast.
