Johnson defeated Ald. Bob Donovan in a special election, a victory for the politican who started as Common Council freshman in Wisconsin’s largest city.
“This city for the first time in our 176-year history has elected its first Black mayor. We did it,” Johnson told supporters at the Hilton Milwaukee City Center.
