CLEVELAND -- The Cuyahoga County Board of Elections says today's voting in the primary election "commenced without a hitch" at 6:30 a.m.

Director Pat McDonald says all of the 98 polling locations opened on time and things are running smoothly.

"At 8:30 a.m., turnout was estimated at about 3 percent," McDonald says. "Total turnout for the election is expected to be less than 15 percent, however there could be pockets of higher voter interest in Wards 10 and 14 because the candidates in those Wards have been well publicized by the media," said McDonald.  

There are six municipalities in today's election including nine of seventeen Cleveland City Council Wards.

Voters are reminded that if they still have a voted absentee ballot they can only be returned to the Board of Elections offices by 7:30 p.m. Voters may use the drop-off ballot box located in the Board of Elections parking lot at 2925 Euclid Avenue, Cleveland.

Voters heading for the polls should confirm their ward, precinct, and voting location by calling 216-443-VOTE or by checking on line at: www.443vote.com. 

Voters need to remember to bring identification to the polls.

Municipalities in the Election:

Bay Village: Mayoral primary

Bedford Heights: Council at large, Ward 4

Brook Park: Mayoral primary, Council at large

Cleveland: Council Wards 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 9, 10, 13 and 14.
