The 2000 Summit County, Ohio Executive election was held on November 7, 2000. Incumbent Democratic County Executive Tim Davis, who was under federal investigation over bribery allegations, declined to seek re-election to a fourth term.[1] Two candidates ran to succeed him in the Democratic primary: County Auditor James McCarthy and former Akron City Councilman Warner Mendenhall. McCarthy defeated Mendenhall in a landslide, receiving 79 percent of the vote, and advanced to the general election, where he was opposed by Cuyahoga Falls Mayor Don Robart, the Republican nominee.[2] McCarthy defeated Robart by a wide margin, winning 58 percent of the vote to Robart's 42 percent.[3]
