CLEVELAND — The Cuyahoga County Board of Elections announced it has completed the new ward and precinct boundary lines for Cleveland.

The numbers of wards has dropped down from 17 to 15, and the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections said the more than 251,000 registered voters in the city will receive a letter informing them of their voting location and precinct assignment.

There will also be new ward maps with voting locations available on the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections website, which can be found here.  

The change was made after the 2020 Census showed the need to eliminate two wards, so the Cleveland City Council reviewed the number of wards and approved new boundaries in January 2025. 

The boundaries for Cleveland’s 17 wards will remain active until January 2026 for city administrative and public services, but the 15 new wards are being utilized for this year’s Cleveland elections.

Cleveland, OH-Cleveland State University announced that men’s basketball coach Daniyal Robinson has stepped down from his position to accept the same role at the University of North Texas. A national search for Cleveland State’s next head coach will begin immediately. 

“I want to thank Coach Robinson for his leadership, dedication’ and advancement of our men’s basketball program over the past three seasons,” Director of Athletics Kelsie Gory Harkey said. “We are grateful for his service and wish him nothing but the best. Coach Robinson continued our tradition of excellence both on and off the court while preparing our student-athletes for the future. Our goal in hiring our next head coach is to build on the success of our program on the court while providing a transformational student-athlete experience to all of our men’s basketball players. I thank President Bloomberg and the Cleveland State Board of Trustees for their full support as we identify a top tier coach to lead us forward.”

Coach Robinson led Cleveland State to three 20-win seasons during his three seasons with the Vikings, while leading CSU to postseason play in all of those seasons. He mentored six All-Horizon league student-athletes as head coach, and one player – Tristan Enaruna – signed with the Boston Celtics after his time at CSU.
