SHAWN WINDSOR - - Detroit Free Press
| Five days before the election, Hillsdale mayoral candidate Michael Sessions wound up in the emergency room with bronchitis. He'd spent too many nights knocking on doors in the cold, trying to convince residents to write his name on the ballot when they voted.
"I tried to tell him to wear his coat," said his mother, Lorri Sessions. "But he wouldn't."
Michael Sessions won Tuesday's election anyway, and at 18, became Hillsdale's youngest mayor ever, sending a jolt through this rolling little college community.
