Cleveland and Helen city elections

Voters in Cleveland and Helen are deciding several city council races today.

Early voting wrapped up Friday with a low number of registered voters casting ballots in both cities, during the three-week period. In the City of Cleveland, there are two positions on the city council on the ballot. Ward 2, with incumbent Kevin Stanley and challenger Jeremy McClure. In Ward 4 the two candidates are Bradley Greene the incumbent and CJ McDonald.

Even though these candidates are running for a specific ward seat on the council all residents in the city can vote for the two council elections.
