Detroit police chief to challenge Whitmer for governorship in 2022: Report

Detroit Police Chief James Craig will reportedly challenge Michigan Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer in the state’s 2022 gubernatorial race.

Craig is expected to announce his retirement from the police department Monday and will detail his plans in a subsequent press conference, according to the Detroit News.
