The 2010 Cuyahoga County executive election took place on November 2, 2010, to elect the County Executive of Cuyahoga County, Ohio . This was the first held under the newly ratified Charter of Cuyahoga County , which replaced Cuyahoga's 200 year old Board of County Commissioners with an executive and legislature, establishing the office of County Executive.[ 2]
The Democrats nominated the mayor of Lakewood Ed FitzGerald , while the Republicans nominated former Ohio State Representative Matt Dolan .[ 3] This was the only Cuyahoga County executive election to date with more than two candidates on the ballot, with the Green Party nominating architect David H. Ellison,[ 4] and businessmen Ken Lanci and Don Scipione as well as former Cuyahoga County Commissioner Tim McCormack running as independents .[ 5] [ 6] [ 7]
FitzGerald defeated Dolan by approximately 50,000 votes with 45.7% of the vote to Dolan's 30.3%, making it the closest County Executive election in Cuyahoga's history, and the only to be won by a plurality of the vote.[ 8]
