Former Detroit Mayor and City Council President Ken Cockrel Jr. joins Detroit Next to break down all the different things Detroiters need to think about before casting their votes in the primary.

"When I became mayor, the one thing that even I wasn't quite ready for is the extent to which every day can hit you with something completely unexpected," Cockrel Jr. said. "So that's the thing I think anybody that's going to be mayor needs to be prepared for. You can have a sense of what your day is going to look like, just based on your calendar and what you have on it. But the reality is, something may come up, it's going to force you to completely recalibrate and do something different."

Stephen Henderson and Bryce Huffman also talk about the things they are hearing from Detroiters heading into this election.
