"The newly elected Muslim-majority city council in Hamtramck, Michigan, is said to be the first of its kind in America.
Three of the candidates who attracted the most votes in Tuesday’s election were Muslims, with two — Anam Miah and Abu Musa — serving as incumbents and with Saad Almasmari being elected to a first term, the Detroit Free Press reported.
Mohammed Hassan, another member of the city council, was not up for re-election this cycle. That said, four out of six members of the Hamtramck City Council will be Muslims beginning in January."
