        Totally agree. He deserves another term. He's not perfect, but he's done a good job.

        Duggan continues the same dumb thing: debt inducing projects downtown while the rest of the city bleeds jobs, taxes. CY ll is no alternative

        Mike Duggan is the best Mayor Detroit has had in decades. Anyone else who disagree's with that is just not looking at the facts.

        It is not the color of the skin that is going to decide Detroit's fate, it is the return to conservative values and focusing on helping ppl.

        He was not responsible for the middle class exodus. That started happening long before his tenure.
