If you’re interested in only a particular race or two, you can use the BOE’s Election Results Wizard to pick your poison, if you really want to, you can also see the county-wide results. BLACKHEART Cleveland managed to interview both of the top vote-getters in the Ward 14 race. Watch our interviews with: Brian Cummins, Rick Nagin, and Mayor Jackson.

Here’s what folks are saying elsewhere (lots from Henry Gomez at the PD):

Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson coasts to easy victory in primary

The competition for Jackson’s opponent in November was too close to call. Political newcomer Robert Kilo trailed former City Councilman Bill Patmon by little more than 100 votes.

Jeffrey Johnson, Zack Reed, Brian Cummins gain spots on Cleveland City Council ballot; Joe Santiago falls short

Johnson had his political career re-energized by voters. He earned the most votes in the race for Ward 8. The former councilman and state senator, whose career was derailed 11 years ago by a federal extortion conviction, was trailed closely by Councilwoman Shari Cloud, who was appointed to the Glenville-area seat four months ago.

BREAKING : Staggering 83% of Cleveland Ward 14 Votes Santiago Out of a Job

The very likely scenario would be a distribution of votes from Cintron going to Nagin, and votes from Horvath and D’Amico going to Cummins. That makes the general election contest just about even

Leadership

I hope that Rick Nagin and Brian Cummins make a real effort to get to listen to [Nelson Cintron] and, especially to [his] daughters, who can make them understand the need to protect and serve.

I was invited down to participate and I had the chance to ask him a couple of questions about what it’s like to be mayor.
