City voters will head to the polls on Aug. 8 for a primary election that will determine which candidates advance to the Nov. 7 General Election. City Clerk is among the offices up for election. Six candidates are running for the office, which is currently held by Janice Winfrey. The top two vote-getters will advance to the General Election.
Citizen Detroit, a community forum established at Wayne State University, recorded videos with all eight candidates running for Detroit's top office. Watch the videos below. See Citizen Detroit's videos of candidates for all Detroit offices here. Videos are not an endorsement by Citizen Detroit or any of the partners in this project. Candidate videos presented in alphabetical order by last name.
