Duggan wins Detroit mayoral primary; Adams to be fall opponent
Duggan had 72.5% of the vote with 100% of precincts reporting followed by Adams
at 10%. Perennial candidate Tom Barrow was third with 6% and second-time candidate Myya Jones was fourth with 5%.
Duggan s chief of staff Alexis Wiley called the more than 60 percentage point gap a historic margin of victory. The turnout was listed Tuesday night as 11%, below the 14% rate in the August 2017 primary.
Duggan held a Tuesday night party on the patio of Good Vibes on the city’s east side. The 63-year-old incumbent posed for photos with supporters and chatted beside a bonfire with his fiancé Sonia Hassan and Deputy Mayor Conrad Mallet Jr. He was greeted by a round of applause by nearly 130 people.

Mesquite native Tiffany Kavuma founded the Zoe House, a nonprofit organization based in Uganda that helps young mothers through essential training.
Kavuma, a graduate of West Mesquite High School, had volunteered at the Dallas Juvenile Detention Center and helped young women who had been involved in sex trafficking. Once she moved to Uganda, Kavuma recognized the high rate of teenage pregnancy and experienced firsthand when she helped a young woman get medical attention for her child.
âHer whole demeanor changed from one of hopelessness to one of hope. In just those few hours with her she knew that âsomeone cared for me, a stranger saw me in need and a stranger was there to support me,ââ Kavuma said. âThat was the catalyst for what would become the Zoe House, and I decided I didnât want to sit on the sidelines anymore.â
