UAW forum generates heated exchanges between gubernatorial opponents
May 19, 2026 // Two of the top candidates to be Michigan's next governor, Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and former Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan, repeatedly clashed Monday night over how they've raised money to support their political ambitions. The exchanges, which might preview the race ahead this fall, played out at a forum organized by the United Auto Workers inside a union hall in Dearborn. About 150 people were in the crowd for the event that featured Duggan, a former Democratic prosecutor and current independent candidate for Michigan's top office, and two Democratic contenders, Benson and Genesee County Sheriff Chris Swanson.
