It's Election Day!
It's Super Tuesday, otherwise known as Election Day, in Ohio.
Happy Election Day!
The polls open at 6:30 a.m. and will remain open until 7:30 p.m. To find your polling location, click here. NOTE: Some of Fairlawn's polling locations have changed since November.
To view a sample of the ballot, visit the Summit County Board of Elections website. Ohio voters will decide much more than the Republican presidential primary today. It's a major election that will narrow fields of candidates in a number of state, regional, judicial and county races, however, there will be no local issues in the Fairlawn/Bath Township area.
