Growing up in poverty as a child on Detroit's west side, sometimes wondering when and how he would get his next meal, the Rev. Solomon Kinloch Jr. says he can remember having "nothing," including running water. The family would have to fill buckets at a neighbor's house to use for drinking and taking a bath.

It was that hardscrabble upbringing that fueled him, Kinloch said, to later serve his community — as a pastor. And, if his prayers are answered on election night, Nov. 4 — as mayor.
