UNDATED WKZO AM/FM) — You have probably seen his family’s ads hundreds of times. Attorney Mark Bernstein had been toying with a run for governor as a Democrat, but yesterday opted instead to throw his support to Gretchen Whitmer all but anointing her as the frontrunner for the Democrats.
He had the ‘Bernstein advantage’ when it comes to personal income and name recognition, but Bernstein says his wife and two young children prefered the prominent trial attorney stick to his day job, and so he has bowed out of the race.
Detroit Public Health Director Abdul El-Sayed and Bill Cobbs are the only active candidates on the Democratic side.
Another trial attorney, Jeffrey Feiger has been talking about running again, but political reporters in Lansing say he has been talking about it for over a decade and has never pulled the trigger.
