Detroit Politics Faces a Historic Year with Mayoral and Gubernatorial Shifts
As Detroit gears up for a political shakeup in 2025, all eyes are on Mayor Mike Duggan, who is poised to pursue the governorship. His departure will create a vacancy in the leadership of Michigan’s largest city, marking a significant transition in local governance. This development highlights a crucial period in Detroit’s political evolution.
The latest episode of It’s Just Politics features hosts Zoe Clark and Rick Pluta, who delve into this political transformation. They are joined by Stephen Henderson, the host of American Black Journal, and Nancy Kaffer, the editorial page editor of the Detroit Free Press. The discussion centers on Duggan’s impact on the city, the broader political environment, and reflections on the 10-year anniversary since Detroit emerged from the largest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history.
