About this record

Votes, shares and names are as the county printed them (read November 8, 2026); every candidate is named. "Presumed" terms follow the term lengths in force when the county page does not state them. "Archive term record" compares a city result with the archive's own record of the official's term, from the minutes; it never replaces it. A difference is reviewed, not settled here. School district and county contests are shown with the whole district's or county's figures, and the Tiffin precinct's where the county prints them. Report an error.
