It s official: Westland voters will chose between incumbent Mayor Bill Wild and Councilwoman Tasha Green in the mayor s race this November.
Most Westland voters cast their ballot by mail, but the city had over 10,500 voters during Tuesday s primary election. According to the clerk s office, a local primary doesn t usually draw that kind of interest.
Residents who voted said it s a right they feel is important to exercise. It’s what you’re supposed to do, said Jennifer Diederichs, who cast her vote at Schweitzer Elementary Tuesday. You can’t just sit back and not vote.
Aside from narrowing the mayor s race, voters also narrowed the council race and decided a library tax request.
