Councilman Doug Thomas, who recently battled residency issues, is the sole incumbent who was not asked back by Dearborn voters Tuesday night. Mayor O'Reilly easily cruised past Michael Prus and City Clerk Kathleen Buda ran unopposed. After a strong primary run and a solid campaign this fall, newcomer Brian O'Donnell will join six returning incumbents on Dearborn's City Council.
Thomas Tafelski returns as Council President, but Suzanne Sareini will replace Nancy Hubbard as President Pro Tem. George Darany, Robert Abraham and Mark Shooshanian will all return after tonight's vote.
Hussein Berry, after numerous attempts, will take a seat on the Dearborn School Board with Pamela Adams. Also, Dearborn voters overwhelmingly approved a millage renewal to support Henry Ford Community College.

The HFCC millage approved by voters was a renewal of an existing property tax levy, not an increase.
Well, I suppose you get what you deserve.
Such a low turnout! The city's voters should be ashamed of themselves. Quit your complaining about this city if you don't have the nads to make a change.
Terrible turnout, for sure, 29 percent. Not unusual for Dearborn city elections, though -- the November 2005 council election drew about 31 percent of registered voters.
Dearborn Heights had about 16.5 percent turnout yesterday in elections for its city offices.
