Citizens Defeated in Bid to Reclaim City Board Control
In Akron the machine interests kept power for two more years as Doyle won a plurality exceeding 500 and the entire Republican city ticket prevailed. Democrats gain seven on the City Council and four on the Board of Education, while Isbell’s mayoral bid fell short despite strong early gains in Republican wards. The Board of Elections reported all precincts in by 19:00, with crowds dispersing by midnight as results confirmed the partisan balance.

Isbell Defiant After Defeat in City Election
Mr Chas Isbell says he fought a good clean campaign and will accept the outcome. He blames the loss on the strength of the Trojan machine and on Democrats who benefited from its favors, while praising the citizens who supported him across wards. He thanks friends and notes the support of representative citizens.
Youngstown Endorsed the Commissioner Law Move
Youngstown approved the city’s Commissioner law as the preferred form of government in a decisive plurality. Voters favored ending the City Commissioner system and adopting a city government model resembling Toledo. Local attorneys failed to strike down the law as unconstitutional, a challenge rooted in special legislation theory. The Supreme Court ruled the change constitutional over six years ago in related cases. State versus Gardner raised the same special legislation issue.
