Chisholm Declares Victory in Milwaukee Co. DA Race

Dem Milwaukee DA candidate John Chisholm declared victory tonight after receiving 63 percent of the vote with 89 percent of the precincts reporting.

"It's my hard work, and I need to keep working harder. It's been signature issues that have dictated this campaign, and I'm not taking anything for granted," said Chisholm.

Larraine McNamara-McGraw was not quick to declare herself the loser and didn't concede.

"We're going to ignore the elephant in the room, after declaring victory on behalf of the people, victory on behalf of racial prejudice and gender bias," she said. "I'm going to continue to fight against the blindness and the dumbness that has surrounded this campaign."
