Duggan wins Detroit mayoral primary; Adams to be fall opponent
Duggan had 72.5% of the vote with 100% of precincts reporting followed by Adams
at 10%. Perennial candidate Tom Barrow was third with 6% and second-time candidate Myya Jones was fourth with 5%.
Duggan s chief of staff Alexis Wiley called the more than 60 percentage point gap a historic margin of victory. The turnout was listed Tuesday night as 11%, below the 14% rate in the August 2017 primary.
Duggan held a Tuesday night party on the patio of Good Vibes on the city’s east side. The 63-year-old incumbent posed for photos with supporters and chatted beside a bonfire with his fiancé Sonia Hassan and Deputy Mayor Conrad Mallet Jr. He was greeted by a round of applause by nearly 130 people.
Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan scored a resounding victory in Tuesday s primary election and will face Anthony Adams, ex-deputy mayor to former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, in the Nov. 2 general election.
The top two finishers Tuesday are members of the same generation - Duggan is 63 and Adams is 65 - and often talk about some of the same opportunities and challenges Detroit and its residents face. But
Duggan notched a lopsided victory with slightly over 72% of the vote while Adams trailed far behind with almost 10%, according to election results posted by Wayne County early Wednesday at 2:17 a.m. with 100% of the precincts fully reported. But the mayor indicated that the march to November would still be hard-fought.
Incumbent
Mike Duggan was first elected mayor in 2013. In 2017, he was re-elected by a margin of nearly 44 points, defeating Coleman Young II (D) with 71.6% of the vote to Young’s 27.8%. Duggan said that, if re-elected in 2021, he would work every day to continue to make sure every neighborhood has a future and every Detroiter has a true opportunity to achieve your dreams.
Anthony Adams is an attorney and served as deputy mayor of Detroit under former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick (D). He was also an executive assistant to Mayor Coleman Young, was a board member and general counsel for Detroit Public Schools, and was interim director of the Detroit Water and Sewerage Department.
