Oh. Leftists! LOL! Of course!

In his first campaign ever, the 33 year old Cavanagh entered the 1961 Detroit mayoral race, one of eleven candidates in the nonpartisan primary opposing incumbent Louis Miriani.[1] None of these candidates was seen as serious opposition to Miriani, who had an enormous amount of institutional support and had easily won the mayoral race four years earlier.[1] Cavanagh ran second to Miriani in the primary, earning a slot in the general election, but received less than half the primary votes Miriani did.[1] However, Cavanagh campaigned relentlessly, criticizing Miriani's handling of Detroit's financial affairs and race relations with the city's African-American community.[1] And indeed, many in the black community believed Miriani condoned police brutality.[1] On election day, black voters turned out in force, and Cavanagh stunned political observers by defeating incumbent Miriani.[1]

Cavanagh got off to a popular start as mayor, appointing a reformer to be chief of police and implementing an affirmative action program for most city agencies.[1] Unlike Richard J. Daley, who resisted forced implementation of the American civil rights movement, Jerry Cavanagh welcomed Martin Luther King, Jr. to Detroit, and marched with him in June 1963 down Woodward Avenue in the 100,000 strong March for Freedom.[2]

...

In the face of this optimism, Cavanaugh was re-elected overwhelmingly in 1965.[2] In 1966, Cavanagh was elected president of both the United States Conference of Mayors and the National League of Cities, the only mayor to hold both posts at the same time.[1]

...

However, deeper problems existed under the surface.

...

On July 23, 1967, a police attempt to break up an illegal party escalated into what would be known as the 12th Street Riot. Feeling a large police presence would make things worse, Cavanagh acted slowly to stop the riots. They lasted for five days, killed 43 people, made over 5,000 people homeless, and required two divisions of federal paratroopers to be put down; they were the worst of the four hundred or so riots that American cities experienced in the 1960s. Cavanagh himself had to admit in July 1967, "Today we stand amidst the ashes of our hopes. We hoped against hope that what we had been doing was enough to prevent a riot. It was not enough."

Roman Gribbs was born in Detroit on December 29, 1925.[3] He was raised on a farm near Capac, Michigan.[4] His parents were Polish immigrants who were basically farmers, though his dad also worked on the Ford assembly line. After graduating from high school in 1944,[3] Gribbs served in the Army until 1948.[3] He graduated from the University of Detroit in 1952 with a degree in economics and accounting,[3] and received a law degree from the same institution in 1954.[3] He was an instructor at the university from 1955 through 1957,[3] and became an assistant prosecutor in 1957, a position he held until 1964.[3][4] He entered private practice in 1964,[3] and ran for a seat as a Recorder's Court judge in 1966, but lost.[4]

In 1968, Gribbs was appointed sheriff of Wayne County, later winning a full four-year term.[4] However, in 1969 he was elected mayor of Detroit,[3] defeating opponent Richard H. Austin who later became Michigan Secretary of State. Rather than residing in the Manoogian Mansion, official residence of the mayor of Detroit, Gribbs maintained residence in Rosedale Park Historic District (Detroit, Michigan), a neighborhood in northwest Detroit. In 1973, Gribbs declined to seek re-election[5] and was replaced by Coleman Young who was elected Detroit's first African-American mayor in November of that year; Gribbs has been the last white mayor as of 2013.

The rest of the mayors weren't leftist. They were just black.

These two guys won the same way as every winning Democratic candidate for president has since LBJ:

1) Non-white votes

2) The votes of a sufficient number of white traitors.
