The controversial new charter plan faced steep opposition from Mayor Mike Duggan, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer and various business groups in Detroit.
After months of turmoil, Detroit voters overwhelmingly voted no to Proposal P, opting not to adopt a new city charter.
With all precincts reporting, the revised charter plan was defeated with 67% of voters rejecting the proposal, according to unofficial returns.
Detroiters voted to establish a Charter Revision Commission in 2018. After meeting with citizen focus groups to workshop ideas and translate them into policy, the Charter Revision Commission finished its revisions to the city charter early this year.
Voters head to the polls to decide fate of Detroit s Proposal P on Tuesday
