Just one of the City of Cleveland's more than 350 voting precincts — in Bellaire-Puritas — went for Donald Trump in this year's election, per official results from the Cuyahoga Board of Elections.

State of play: Cleveland has long been Ohio's Democratic stronghold, and in large swaths of the city, Vice President Kamala Harris won 90% of the vote or more.

Flashback: Unofficial Election Day results showed that no precinct in Cleveland voted for Trump over Harris.

In one Old Brooklyn precinct, the Republican and Democrat tied with 271 votes apiece.

Yes, but: After updated vote counts, Trump won one precinct outright: 16-C in the Bellaire-Puritas neighborhood. He defeated Harris there 267-260.

The precinct forms a border with suburban Brook Park.

The intrigue: As in many the parts of the country, Trump gained support across Cuyahoga County, a net 2.8% between 2020 and 2024.
