The Detroit City Council has voted 7-1 for controversial mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick, to resign from office.  The council has no power so the vote is merely a suggestion of sorts.

Mayor Kilpatrick has been in hot water for lying under oath about 14,000 sexual text messages he exchanged with his chief of staff Christine Beatty over the course of a year.  Kwame is for sure a ladies man as he proved a few weeks ago with Carmen Slowsky.

Kilpatrick has been involved with numerous other scandals while mayor.  You can read about all of them on Mayor Kilpatrick’s Wikipedia profile.

Kwame has not hinted at resigning at office and likely won’t.
