U.S. House candidate Adam Hollier will be left off Michigan's August primary ballot after a county clerk ruled that he had not submitted enough valid signatures
A Detroit Democrat will not appear on the ballot after building significant support within the party in his attempt to unseat U.S. Rep. Shri Thanedar in Michigan's August primary, after election officials determined that he had not submitted enough valid signatures. Wayne County Clerk Cathy Garrett’s ruling on Tuesday to keep former state Sen. Adam Hollier off the ballot could keep Detroit without Black representation in Congress for the second consecutive term.
Thanedar, a wealthy businessman who spent more than $10 million of his own money to run for governor in 2018, has a major cash advantage on Waters close to a month before absentee ballots will be sent out. “Hollier was always going to be behind on resources, but he was at least going to have the resources to compete. Waters won't,' said Hemond, the Democratic strategist. “Shri is going to spend money because that's how he campaigns. And I expect that Shri will win this primary now.
