Take the time to READ the warning listed on the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections site from which this information is taken. It states quite plainly (in red letters) that the number of votes cast for municipalities with wards needs to be derived by adding the total of each individual ward within the municipality. For instance, Mayfield Village municipality, which is listed as having 3145 votes cast (113.7%) actually had only 1,760 votes cast (add Wards 1,2,,3 and 4).

In fact, if you add up the votes cast in ANY municipality with wards you will see that it does not equal the listed votes cast for the whole municipality.

Also note that this site was last updated at 2:12AM November 3rd. and is listed as “unofficial”.

There is a phone number on the site for anyone having questions.
