About this record
- The county page states the term lengths: the top three council candidates 4 years, the next two 2 years (the 1983 vote changed council terms to 4-year staggered terms).
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.
