Eddie Cullen wins supervisor race to represent Wauwatosa
Milwaukee resident Eddie Cullen, a first grade teacher, took 60 percent of the votes Tuesday in the election for the Milwaukee County Board 15th District supervisor seat.
Cullen will represent parts of the north end of Wauwatosa (wards 14, 15, 19, 22, 23 and 24), as well as parts of Milwaukee and West Milwaukee. The position was left open when former supervisor David Cullen was elected Milwaukee County treasurer in November.
Wauwatosa Alderman Jason Wilke had previously been in the running for the seat, but was ousted in the primary. The other candidate in the general election, Nicholas Hunt, received 40 percent of the 5,489 votes cast in the election, according to results Tuesday.
