LANSING, Mich. — 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.
“I am extremely disappointed with the news from the Wayne County clerk following her professional review of our petitions,” Hollier said in a statement Tuesday. “Not for myself, but for the voters across the 13th District who deserve a real choice in who their next Congressperson will be.” Faith leaders in Detroit and high-profile Michigan Democrats, including Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, endorsed Hollier’s campaign. In a rare move, the leadership of the Congressional Black Caucus also endorsed Hollier over the incumbent.
“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.”
