Notes on this record
How the lists were read, and what could not be.
- Candidates: Mahoning County Board of Elections 'Mahoning County Candidates for the General Election November 3, 2026' (DocumentCenter/View/2640, retrieved 2026-11-01). The list prints candidates' home addresses, phones and personal emails: none copied (one campaign-domain email kept for Cutrona). Write-ins skipped (Aidan Michael Jeffery, Auditor). Not recorded (brief scope): Attorney General (Kulewicz D, Faber R), Auditor (Blackwell D, LaRose R), Secretary of State (Russo D, Sprague R, Pruss L), Treasurer (Walsh D, Edwards R), Supreme Court (Zayas D v Hawkins R; Brunner D v O'Donnell R), OH-14 (Joyce R, Jukic D — not in Youngstown), SD/HD-59, 7th District Court of Appeals, Common Pleas, Domestic Relations, Probate, County Commissioner (Lauren McNally D, Christine Oliver R), County Auditor (Meacham R, Bosze D). The Akron record (Stark list) also carries Greg Levy (Independent) for U.S. Senate; he is NOT on the Mahoning list, so not recorded here.
- Sitting federal/state officials: Mahoning BOE 'Current Elected Officials' page (235), retrieved 2026-11-01; Rulli also from house.gov/representatives. The page's Youngstown block is out of date (Mayor Jamael Tito Brown, President of Council Thomas Hetrick, 6th Ward Anita Davis), so the city rows come from the city's own pages instead. www.ohiosenate.gov and www.ohiohouse.gov timed out (port 443, as in earlier runs); not retried.
- Municipal: youngstownohio.gov could not be fetched — the host did not resolve in this machine's DNS (public DNS resolves it to a Sucuri proxy); a workaround (forcing the IP) was refused by the session's permission system and not pursued. Mayor and council therefore come from search-engine excerpts of the official city pages (staff_export, city_council, council_president_profile, Nth_ward_council_profile), cited by URL; verify against the pages when reachable. Council: President (city-wide) + 7 wards. Party null (Youngstown elects in partisan primaries, but the excerpts print no party). Next City of Youngstown municipal election: November 2027 (ward terms end December 31, 2027 per the Ward 1 and 2 profiles; Mayor and President terms run to 2029) — inferred, not read from a city calendar.
- Districts: Census geocoder (robots 404) at City Hall: OH-6 (120th), SD-33, HD-58. A 6x6 grid over 41.05-41.15 N, 80.72-80.56 W gave 24 points inside Youngstown city, all OH-6 / SD-33 / HD-58. Coarse sample.
- No home addresses, phones or personal emails recorded. standsFor null for everyone (no candidate statements read).
