YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio - Just one day after incumbent Mayor Tito Brown defeated Ryan Kelly and Julius Oliver in the Democratic Primary, one of his opponents in November dropped out of the race.

Tayana Smith was an independent candidate in the Youngstown mayor race.

Smith cited personal reasons for her withdrawal from the race.

Mayor Brown will now face Republican Tracey Winbush, Independent candidates John White and Richard Vincent Hill, and write-in candidate Calvin Hill, Sr.
