Jonathan Kinloch named to Wayne County Commission
Jonathan Kinloch, a union official and member of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers, was appointed Thursday to replace the late Jewel Ware on the Wayne County Commission.
Kinloch, a Democrat, will represent District 2, which includes downtown Detroit, surrounding neighborhoods, Belle Isle and the area where the new Wayne County Criminal Justice Center will be located.
Kinloch will fill the two-year term of Ware, who died in December after being re-elected Nov. 3. Ware, a Democrat, was a former commission chair and had served as vice-chair pro tempore during the 2019-20 commission session. I’m extremely humbled in being appointed to the vacancy on the county commission due to the untimely passing of my friend and mentor Jewel C. Ware, he said. Jewel was a public servant who loved helping citizens in need.

WAYNE COUNTY, Mich. (WXYZ) â Controversy is growing over how to replace Jewel Ware on the Wayne County Commission. She passed away last week of a heart attack at the age of 66.
Some say there should be a special election in the Second District. Some say a replacement should be appointed by the county commissioners from a list of people who submitted their names for consideration.
A meeting will be held Thursday morning to discuss how to move forward with Ware s replacement. Commissioner Tim Kileen will speak out that this should be decided by the voters, not politicians.
