He lost his bid for re-election in a crowded 12-candidate primary in September 2007.[1] Bergson was elected mayor of Duluth in 2003, taking a two-way race with 57 percent of the vote over local businessman Charlie Bell. He succeeded Gary Doty, who retired from the office after serving three terms. Bergson had also run unsuccessfully for the office in 1999, and went on to win a seat on the Duluth City Council. In December 2005 Bergson pleaded no contest to a drunk driving charge, after crashing a vehicle he was driving into a bridge near Spooner, Wisconsin. Bergson addressed the press on December 15, after suffering from a concussion and other injuries, stating that he does not have an alcohol problem, and "would never drink again".[2] In May 2012 Bergson was arrested for operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated, followed by an arrest in September 2013, which resulted in four charges, including drunk driving and driving with an open container.[3] Bergson is the only mayor of Duluth to have also served two terms as mayor of Superior, Wisconsin, Duluth's Twin Ports sister city across Lake Superior. He had been a police patrolman when he unseated the incumbent mayor in Superior in the late 1980s. After leaving that office, Bergson returned to active duty and served as a police detective in Superior.
