District covers:
Western Detroit

Gabe Leland is the incumbent with a lot of primary opponents due to City Politics. This district is solidly democrat, but slightly less so (Closer to 85% than 95% so it’s not a contestable seat anytime soon) than other Detroit districts since this district has some blue collar white areas of the city in Warrendale. It’s still solidly democrat. The primary will be the big decision here.
