Deletion prod removed

I just removed a deletion prod on this article. Ficano has been one of SE Michigan's most visible political figures over a long career, including 12 years as county executive and 20 years as sheriff of one of the nation's largest counties.

He also attracted attention for his brushes with scandal, and was ultimately defeated as a result (unusual for a sitting county executive).

There is a tremendous amount of independent coverage of Ficano and his doings in major media outlets, such as the Detroit News and the Detroit Free Press. Kestenbaum (talk) 13:10, 10 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
