MARYSVILLE, MI – A city council candidate in Michigan is under fire for saying she wants to keep "Marysville a white community as much as possible."

Jean Cramer made the comment on Thursday during a public forum in the city in St. Clair County about 55 miles northeast of Detroit.

The Times Herald in Port Huron was the first to report the remark, which apparently came in response to a question about diversity and left many in attendance shocked and upset.

Cramer is one of five candidates running for three council seats in November, the Times Herald reported.

After the forum, Cramer told the newspaper that she's not "against blacks" but believes married couples "need to be the same race."

More than 90% of Marysville's 9,700-person population is white, according to U.S. Census data.

Mayor Dan Damman, who isn't running for re-election, says Cramer's comments were "vile" and "jaw-dropping."

Council member Paul Wessel says Marysville is open to anyone who arrives in the city, the Times Herald reported.
