Primary election

It's primary election day and for most Ohio counties, tax issues and municipal races are on the ballot; for the second day in a row, new covid-19 cases were below 1,000 Monday at 995 and well below the three-week average of 1,648; a new legislative effort to crack down on distracted driving would make it illegal to drive in Ohio while holding a phone or any other electronic device; and more stories.

Voters in 19 greater Cleveland communities will decide the fate of levies in their school districts when they head to the polls on Tuesday. If approved, the money will be used to avoid a deficit for Brooklyn City Schools and to provide emergency resources for Parma City Schools, West Geauga and Green Local Schools to name a few. Jennifer Houge with the Ohio School Boards Association says if voters don't pass the levies, these districts will have to make difficult decisions to balance their budgets.
