Election 2025

Jefferson County's general election on Tuesday saw a voter turnout of 30 percent, with 12,838 of the county's 42,675 registered voters participating. Sargus Hall, located behind Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church in Wintersville, was among the polling sites facilitating voter access. In Steubenville, city voters approved all eight proposed charter revisions and passed a 1-mill levy to fund the public library. Furthermore, voters elected two new members to the Indian Creek school board and retained four incumbents on the Wintersville Council. The election results indicate a robust local engagement in civic matters and governance.

Historical voting trends suggest that community interest in local issues remains high in Jefferson County. With the approval of the library levy, residents demonstrated support for public resources. Overall, these outcomes may influence future policy discussions and community initiatives.
