9:58 PM: Cudahy Mayor Loses
Milwaukee County Supervisor Ryan McCue knocked off Cudahy Mayor John Hohenfeldt with 60 percent of the vote, according to unofficial returns.
McCue finished with 2,224 votes to 1,473 votes for Hohenfeldt.
"I'm very disappointed that I wasn't re-elected as mayor. I have no regrets," Hohenfeldt said.
He said the results of the other races in Cudahy, which included three aldermanic races, showed that the public was in an "anti-incumbent mood."
Hohenfeldt said he left a message with McCue, but had not heard back yet.
"I have to find a job in the next two weeks. It's time for me to move on," he said.
Hohenfeldt is a first-term incumbent. McCue was elected to the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors in a special recall election in June of 2002 and was re-elected in April of 2004. Before that, he served as an alderman in Cudahy.
