Across Greater Cleveland, voters pushed back against efforts to load local school boards with conservatives as part of the culture wars over mask and vaccine policies and critical race theory.

“The work is just beginning,” Bibb said. “Tonight, we celebrate. And tomorrow, we are going to roll up our sleeves and do the work to move our city forward in a better direction.”A key factor in the mayoral race was Issue 24, a proposal to change Cleveland’s charter that a diverse coalition placed on the ballot by initiative petition.to hand oversight of the police department to the citizens that officers are sworn to protect.

A Civilian Police Review Board will have authority to investigate complaints from the public against officers and to order disciplinary action. One group, Citizens for Change, garnered much attention for its attacks on Kucinich. The group’s website stated it was “dedicated to preventing Dennis Kucinich from becoming Cleveland’s mayor again.”

The rancor originated primarily with conservative television and right-wing groups, which started to push that students were learning “critical race theory,” while not always defining it.
