Who’s next for governor and mayor? Political apathy and more ft. Sam Robinson

Who’s next for governor and mayor? Political apathy and more ft. Sam Robinson

Special guest Sam Robinson, reporter for Axios Detroit, joined Norris and Jer at the Daily Detroit studio and we talked about what’s going on around town with politics and a little development.

The rundown:

02:22 – What do some of these future local and state campaigns look like? For Michigan Governor and for Detroit Mayor?

10:29 – Norris gets into why he thinks Gretchen Whitmer’s gubernatorial campaign was successful.

13:03 – Why don’t more Black Detroiters vote progressively?

16:47 – Generational apathy. Outside of loud corners of social media, is Gen Z just tuned out of the process? And why?

28:02 – We get into the often talked about luxury Residences at Water Square and the idea that wealthy people are one part of a complete city.

38:13 Is the rent too high? We conclude by talking what a balanced real estate market in Detroit looks like.
