Democrats storm Detroit in last-minute gubernatorial primary push

Michigan Democratic gubernatorial candidates barnstormed Detroit this weekend, cutting a path through the state's largest city where voters could account for roughly one out of every 10 ballots cast in Tuesday's primary election. Former state Senate Minority Leader Gretchen Whitmer rallied voters at Gordon Park, where she was joined by Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan, U.S. Rep. Brenda Lawrence of Southfield, Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy and other allies. Five miles away at the Cobo Center, former Detroit health director Abdul El-Sayed campaigned with Vermont U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders. The democratic socialist scored a surprise win in Michigan's 2016 presidential primary by energizing the progressive left.
