Metro Detroit voters participate in primary elections, Detroit mayor race heats up

Voters in metro Detroit are participating in primary elections, with a significant focus on Detroit's mayoral race, where nine candidates are vying to succeed Mayor Mike Duggan, who is running for governor. A legal challenge arose as Robert Davis demanded access to observe vote counting, claiming state law was violated by limiting observation to appointed challengers; a judge ruled in Davis's favor. Besides Detroit, new leadership is also being chosen in Pontiac, Dearborn Heights, and Hamtramck.
