ENDORSEMENT FOR MICHIGAN SECRETARY OF STATE

We are proud to announce our enthusiastic endorsement of Aghogho Edevbie for Michigan Secretary of State.

Aghogho Edevbie has consistently demonstrated the knowledge, dedication, passion and experience needed to serve as Michigan’s top administrative officer, and the primary custodian of important state records.

Born and raised in Detroit, Aghogho Edevbie is the son of Nigerian immigrants who came to Michigan in search of a better life. Aghogho went on to earn his bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of Michigan and a juris doctorate from the University of Michigan Law School.

As Michigan State Director of one of the nation’s leading voter rights and protection groups, All Voting Is Local, Aghogho helped lead the fight to pass Proposal 2—giving every Michigan voter access to early voting, a drop box in every community, the right to return their absentee ballot free of charge, and guaranteeing their votes would be certified in a free and fair election.

As Deputy Secretary of State, he helped implement the promises of Proposal 2, and has worked to make the day-to-day experience of government as efficient as possible. He’s helped to put services online to save Michiganders a trip to the Secretary of State’s office and made sure that if they still decide to make a trip, they can get in and out of a branch within 30 minutes. Putting people first, defending our democracy, and making government work is why Aghogho is running for Secretary of State.

Michiganders deserve a Secretary of State who will serve all of us. Aghogho Edevbie has shown his commitment to defend our democracy, strengthen transparency in government, and to serve Michiganders everyday, with intention, commitment, and integrity.

We wholeheartedly endorse Aghogho Edevbie for Michigan Secretary of State and encourage all Michiganders to join us in supporting his campaign.

ENDORSEMENT FOR MICHIGAN ATTORNEY GENERAL

We are proud to announce our enthusiastic endorsement of Eli Savit for Michigan Attorney General.

Eli Savit has consistently shown the courage, integrity, and vision we need in Michigan’s top legal officer.
As Washtenaw County Prosecutor, Eli has been a national leader in criminal justice reform—prioritizing public safety while advancing fairness, equity, and accountability. His data-driven, community-first approach has made Michigan a model for modern, compassionate prosecution.

Eli understands that justice isn’t just about convictions—it’s about community. He believes in building safer neighborhoods, protecting civil rights, and ensuring that the law serves everyone, not just the powerful. At a time when our rights are increasingly under threat, Eli brings both deep experience and moral clarity—and he’s proven his values through action, not just words.

When pro-Palestinian speech and protest came under attack, Eli stood up to those who sought to silence and criminalize dissent. He resisted pressure from the University of Michigan to prosecute 64 protest-related cases—ultimately denying charges in 60 of them and reducing the remaining four to misdemeanor diversions, leaving no criminal record and no impact on immigration or employment.

Eli has also taken on corporate polluters, scammers, and slumlords—and won. He’s litigated major civil-rights cases, successfully sued the opioid industry, and led Detroit’s landmark “right-to-literacy” lawsuit on behalf of the city’s schoolchildren. As a practicing environmental lawyer, he’s helped secure victories against Dupont, Chemours, and other major corporate polluters.

Eli Savit has proven he’s a true fighter who won’t bend to powerful interests. As Attorney General, he’ll continue to defend our rights, our environment, and our communities—with integrity, bold leadership, and a deep commitment to justice.

Michigan deserves an Attorney General who will fight for all of us. Eli Savit is ready to lead that fight.

We encourage all Michiganders to join us in supporting Eli Savit for Michigan Attorney General.

MICHIGAN ATTORNEY GENERAL CANDIDATE FORUM

The People’s Coalition hosted a candidate forum for the Democratic Michigan Attorney General Candidates and asked important questions, from fighting fascism, to protecting free speech, to addressing criminal justice reform and protecting our marginalized communities. We believe it is critical that our current and future electeds address the needs of marginalized people and groups, especially being impacted by state and federal action. We heard from all three candidates; Eli Savit, Karen McDonald and Mark Totten. A special thank you to all these candidates that made the time to be part of this forum and answered these tough but important questions.
