and, from what i can see, you're either going to get a minister, or a minister's daughter.
the minister's daughter (she is running on this, this is her language) is a dangerous trope in american culture, and is often not quite what they seem. i fear detroit might be walking into somewhat of a trap.
but, the other option is the minister, and nobody wants to vote for a minister, for good reason. i certainly wouldn't vote for a minister.
detroit has experienced several years of gentrification. there have certainly been winners, and, as a canadian regularly transiting through detroit to concerts or other events, i'll admit i appreciated the increased lighting and infrastructure. however, i also frequently ran into the homeless population of detroit, who expected things of me that i couldn't give them, as a tourist. it's clear that the gentrification has left a lot of people behind and that is probably a factor in why detroit is now choosing between a minister and a minister's daughter.
it doesn't appear to be a close race.
if detroit is voting for wealth redistribution, i'd suggest it's required, and i hope they get some, although i might expect otherwise.
