[Dearborn Michigan, August 5, 2021]: The American Arab & Muslim American Political Acton Committee (AMPAC) extends its warm congratulations to all candidates who won the August 3rd primary elections in Dearborn and all neighboring cities.
AMPAC appreciates every voter who actively participated and exercised their civic duty. The elected public servants will be making decisions that affect all of us.
The primaries this year were very important- especially in Detroit, Hamtramck, Westland, Taylor and Dearborn. The primary in Dearborn was a historic event. Voters in Dearborn had to choose from among many good candidates for public office. There is no doubt that the mayoral race in Dearborn was the most heated.
AMPAC extends its warm congratulations to Rep. Abdullah Hammoud for receiving the most votes among the candidates for Dearborn mayor. We also congratulates Mr. Gary Woronchak for being the second top vote getter in the mayoral race.
AMPAC congratulates all its endorsed and other candidates who won the primary elections and commends all others who did not make it. This is the reality of elections and this the choice of the voters that we fully respect. There will be other opportunities.
AMPAC calls on all voters to stay engaged, paying attention to the candidates and the issues. AMPAC will continue to assess and re-assess the candidates for the general elections.
AMPAC salutes the efforts of its members and volunteers who worked tirelessly to educate, inform, and helped get out the vote. AMPAC takes pride of the young and the youth who worked throughout the primary elections period and especially those who worked the polls the day of August 3rd.
AMPAC reminds all winning candidates not to take the voters’ support for granted. As one of several community organizations, AMPAC will continue its active role advocating for what serve the best interests of the community at large.
