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.
