Episode Description

What do Detroit voters want out of city's next mayor? This summer, the WDET News team has been hitting the streets for a new project, Citizen Vox, to help us get a clearer picture of what Detroiters want out of the next mayor.

Ahead of Tuesday's primary, WDET news director Jerome Vaughn joined the Metro to tell us more about what WDET reporters have been hearing from residents.

Detroit's mayoral primary is Tuesday, August 5, 2025. The top two vote-getters will advance to the general election in November.
