“Our people in an overwhelming way supported the re-election of this president and there ought to be a quid pro quo and you ought to exercise leadership on that,” said Watson. “Of course, not just that, but why not?”

 

Nearly 75 percent of Wayne County voters pulled the lever for Obama in November.

 

The White House has expressed no plans to bailout the cash-crunched city that some experts say could run out of money by the end of the year.
