GRAND RAPIDS (WOOD-AM) - Democratic Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson has announced this morning that she's running for governor.
Any surprise regarding the announcement was accidentally spoiled last night. A post on social media was quickly taken down after being spotted yesterday around 7:30 p.m.
Benson is term limited and has said she doesn't plan to endorse anyone for her current position.
Benson is the first major Democrat to announce that she's seeking the office. Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan, who gained that office as a Democrat, said that he's running for governor as an independent.
