Today is the primary election for mayor and city council in Detroit. Two candidates will advance to the general election in November in the mayor and city council district races; while four candidates will compete this fall for two at-large seats on the city council.
The polls in Detroit are open for another nine hours. Regardless, after consulting my crystal ball, my predictions for the outcome are as follows:
Mayor
1) Benny Napoleon;
2) Tom Barrow; and
3) Mike Duggan.
City Council - 7th District
1) Gabe Leland;
2) Dustin Campbell; and
3) John Bennett.
City Council - At-Large
1) Saunteel Jenkins (incumbent);
2) Roy McCalister, Jr;
3) Brenda Jones (incumbent); and
4) Jessica Rayford-Clark.
There are only two candidates running for the Detroit Police Commission in the 7th district. Therefore, both of them will automatically move on to the general election in November.
Update @ 11:16 p.m.
Results are still coming in. Regardless, I think it's safe to say that my predictions for today were seriously wrong.
I'll have more to post tomorrow. For now, just know that my crystal ball has a serious crack in it.
