Early voting kicks off in Detroit ahead of August primary election
Detroiters have the option to vote early for the Aug. 5 primary election at one of many voting centers scattered across the city. Early voting kicked off on Saturday, July 26, giving residents a chance to pick their top choice in candidates to represent them for the next several years. Voting before the primary election is expected to provide Detroiters the flexibility to submit their ballots early and avoid long lines at the polls. At least 279 ballots had been cast at early voting centers by lunchtime July 28, according to Daniel Baxter, the Detroit Elections Department chief of operations, adding that the city expects to receive between 1,250 and 1,750 early voting ballots. Baxter said 100,541 ballots already have already been mailed or issued to voters as of this weekend, and 35,831 have been returned thus far. Turnout in the August 2021 primary reached just above 14% and more than 13% in 2017. Voter turnout is expected to reach anywhere between 13-18% for this year's primary, according to the clerk's office. The last day of early voting is Sunday, Aug. 3, otherwise, voters will have a chance to vote at their polling sites on primary day.

Oil jumps as Trump shortens Russia's deadline to end Ukraine war, US-EU trade deal spurs demand optimism
Oil prices jumped Monday as President Trump shortened a timeline for Russia to end the war with Ukraine, prompting concerns potential sanctions could hit supply. Meanwhile, an agreement between the US and EU on the framework of a trade deal spurred optimism over demand. West Texas Intermediate (CL=F) climbed 1.9% to trade above $66 per barrel, and Brent (BZ=F) crude, the international benchmark price, rose to nearly $69 per barrel. The trade deal between the European Union and the US announced on Sunday includes $750 billion in EU purchases of American oil and natural gas. The stocks of liquified natural gas producers like Cheniere Energy (LNG), NextDecade (NEXT), and Venture Global (VG) all rose Monday as well. The 15% tariff deal on US imports from the EU fueled investors optimism over an eventual agreement with China as Washington and Beijing launched renewed trade talks. Meanwhile on Monday, President Trump shortened a timeline on Russia to end the war with Ukraine, from 50 days to less than two weeks, spurring concerns of a supply shock ahead. The president has threatened 'secondary tariffs' on Russia and countries purchasing from Moscow. "If enforced, oil markets cannot ignore the impact of triple-digit tariffs on Russian oil, given the significant scale of Russian exports and limited OPEC spare capacity, potentially leading to a supply shock," JPMorgan's Natasha Kaneva and her team wrote in a note earlier this month. The EU recently approved tougher price caps on Russian crude exports expected to go into effect in early September as a way to curtail the country's revenue. JPMorgan analysts expect oil price volatility to increase heading into September, citing uncertainty around Russia. The analysts also noted increases in supply from the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (OPEC+) will already have been absorbed into the market by the fall.
