Lawyer and businessman Craig Greenberg will take over the reins of Louisville Metro Government when Mayor Greg Fischer leaves office in January.
Greenberg, who’s the former CEO of 21c Museum Hotels and co-owner of Ohio Valley Wrestling, defeated his Republican opponent Bill Dieruf in Tuesday night’s election with roughly 52% of the vote. Precinct-level data provided by the Jefferson County Clerk’s Office shows Greenberg performed well in Louisville’s urban core and in areas in the east, but voters in the South End and suburban Jefferson County went with Dieruf.
