Once all this was Republican.

For all but fourteen of the seventy years before 2000, Ann Arbor's mayors were Republicans, and so were its city councils. But Republican Ingrid Sheldon saw the demographic ground shift beneath her feet in the 1990s, and council turned completely Democratic during the 2000s.

Government, business, environment, the U-M, and more.
