With all the chaos in the city, here's an opportunity for more.
State Rep. John Olumba is pushing for a recall of Mayor Dave Bing, who has one more year to go in his term, WDIV reports.
Language for the recall was approved Nov. 5, which means Olumba has 90 days to collect 43,000 valid signatures to put it up for a vote.
A little late at this point? A little ridiculous at this point with only a year to go?
Detroit political consultant Adolph Mongo tells WDIV he thinks this is all ridiculous, particularly when you think of the hundreds of thousand of dollars it would cost the city to conduct the election.
"Say they recall him. Then, you got (City Council President) Charles Pugh as mayor," Mongo said. "(Then) we have three mayors, because I don't think Pugh could get re-elected, or get elected, and another year. Six mayors in four years? And they wonder why the city is where it is now."
