Detroit Democrats are once again looking to unseat one of their own in Congress
HOLLAND, Mich. (AP) — Detroit Democrats are once again trying to restore Black representation to the city by unseating an incumbent, as the party more broadly battles publicly over whether challenging their own is the right path forward.
Donavan McKinney, a 32-year-old state representative, launched a Democratic campaign Monday in Michigan's 13th Congressional District, joining former state Sen. Adam Hollier in the race. The two young Black Detroit Democrats are each aiming to unseat second-term U.S. Rep. Shri Thanedar in the primary.
