The McHenry County Board voted, 19-1, Tuesday to appoint longtime McHenry resident Stephen Doherty to fill the vacant County Board District 4 seat. District 2 representative Jeff Thorsen was the only member to vote against the appointment. District 4 members Chuck Wheeler and Kay Bates abstained. Doherty, a Republican, will finish out the two-year unexpired term of former Board member Craig Wilcox, who resigned in September to take an appointment to fill the Illinois 32nd District senate seat. District 4 covers Richmond and Burton townships and all but the southeastern corner of McHenry Township.
