📰 News we're reading

• Judge dismisses lawsuit against Hamtramck mayoral candidate over residency (cbsnews.com) — A Wayne County judge has dismissed a lawsuit claiming a Hamtramck mayoral candidate actually lived in Troy, finding the investigator’s report too vague and reliant on hearsay. The ruling leaves questions about how often the candidate stayed at a Troy home versus Hamtramck, even as a separate fight over 37 absentee ballots could still affect the razor-thin election outcome.
