DescriptionMotown star Martha Reeves, known for belting out hits like "Dancing in the Street" and "Heat Wave," is heading for a new stage as a member of the Detroit City Council.

With 99 percent of the precincts reporting Wednesday, she was in eighth place for one of nine seats.

Reeves said she knows she'll be tested in her first term in public office. She received about 5.6 percent of the vote.

"I want to be the voice of the people I spoke to during the campaign days who don't have a voice, who think their opinions don't matter," Reeves said Wednesday.
