Early life
Dugeon was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and attended Cooley High School. Prior to running for mayor, Dugeon was employed at a barber shop in Detroit.
Political career
Dugeon entered the mayoral race on July 25, 2013 as a write-in candidate in order to disenfranchise voters who intend to write-in Mike Duggan, a leading candidate in the election for mayor. He has not formally announced a party affiliation, but has posted that he is a Democrat on his campaign page.
Dugeon registered to vote for the first time on July 12, 2012. He has never voted in any election in his life.
He admitted on The Mitch Albom Radio Show (after being confronted) that he is the barber of Benny Napoleon's brother-in-law. Napoleon is running against the leading candidate Mike Duggan.
Platform
In an interview with a local news station, Dugeon noted that his platform consists of "free Subway sandwiches, chips and pop for every citizen", and that safety was his "number one priority".
