DETROIT -- In metro Detroit, voters were asked to decide on everything ranging from mayor, council members, taxes and liquor license terms. Below is a breakdown of the most watched races.

Macomb County:
12 cities and one township had elections. Six cities had mayoral matchups: Sterling Heights elected Richard Notte, Mount Clemens elected Barb Dempsey, Centerline elected David Hanselman, New Baltimore elected Thomas Goldenbogen, Roseville elected John Chirkun and Memphis elected Daniel Weaver. Countywide, voters decided on two issues. Residents voted in favor of a an executive-style government similar to those in Oakland and Wayne.

Oakland County:
Southfield officials said voter turnout was better than expected. The Southfield mayoral seat and four city council spots were hotly contested races after the flap with council member William Lattimore. Lattimore pleaded guilty to a bribery charge. He admitted to accepting cash to help a pawnshop relocate inside of the city. Incumbent Mayor Brenda Lawrence, who was running for a third term as mayor, beat council member Sylvia Jordan 78 percent to 22 percent.

Three council members, Donald Fracassi, Kenson Siver and Joan Seymour were elected to a four-year term and the fourth candidate, Janna Garrison, will fill the remainder of Lattimore's two-year term

Pontiac residents elected Leon Jukowski as their mayor. The city faces a $130 million budget deficit. Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm appointed a financial manager to the city, which means Jukowski, 52, will have no control over the city's finances.

Berkley rejected a $15 million bond request for a new community center.

In Royal Oak, residents rejected a two-year liquor moratorium on new liquor license transfers.
