Scarily, the 2009 edition of the Local Elections Handbook marks its 25th annual

appearance! Little did we expect in 1985 that we would still be ploughing on a quarter

of a century later. The Handbook remains the only comprehensive and readily accessible

public record of local election results, though technological developments mean that it

is now easier to gather data piecemeal from the internet.

The Handbook series would not have been possible without continuing co-operation

from Returning Officers and Electoral Administrators who respond cheerfully if sometimes

resignedly to our annual requests for what must seem like ever more information. We

are also grateful for financial and moral support from the University of Plymouth, Local

Government Chronicle and, more recently, the Electoral Commission.

But such success as the Handbook has had is largely down to two groups of

people. On the one hand, there is our small but loyal band of readers, most of whom

probably wear the badge of an ‘elections anorak’ with prominence and pride!

On the other, there is the surprisingly large number of friends and colleagues in

Plymouth and elsewhere who have had a role to play in ensuring the Handbook’s

production. Over the years their number has grown and it is a pleasure to publicly

acknowledge their invaluable help. So, thank you:

Our own data files (in some cases containing election results from as far back as

the nineteenth century) have been deposited with the UK Data Archive at the University

of Essex (www.esds.ac.uk) thanks to generous support from the Economic and Social

Research Council and the Arts and Humanities Research Council.

We hope in the future to make these data even more widely available through a

direct connection with our own website, www.plymouth.ac.uk/elections. The plan then

would be simply to upload each succeeding year’s results.

Introduction

The local elections for 27 English counties and a further 7 unitary authorities were

re-scheduled from early May to coincide with the European Parliament election on June 4.

This was the first time since 1993 that the county elections did not coincide with a

general election (1997, 2001 and 2005). Opinion polls conducted beforehand suggested

that Labour would suffer but all of the major parties were feeling the backlash following

disclosures about MPs’ expenses claims. Labour’s prospects were harmed further on

election eve by high-profile Cabinet resignations directed at perceived failures in Gordon

Brown’s leadership.

Voters in a number of county areas were choosing new unitary authorities to

replace the former two-tier county/district structure. In Cornwall, Shropshire and Wiltshire

new single tier authorities appeared while the area covered by Bedfordshire county was

now sub-divided between two new unitary councils. Some 2,318 seats were at stake

and these attracted 8,957 candidates (a ratio of 3.86 candidates for each vacancy).

Because of the synchronous local and European election in some parts of the country

some 17.5 million electors had two opportunities to cast a ballot. In the remaining parts

of the UK there was only the opportunity to re-elect MEPs. Turnout in the county and

unitary elections reached 39.1%, higher than that recorded for areas participating in

European parliament elections only.

The Conservatives polled well, inflicting damage on both Labour and the Liberal

Democrats. The party benefited greatly from operation of ‘first past the post’ voting and

made nearly three hundred seat gains. Following these elections nearly seven in ten

county electors are now represented by a Conservative councillor (see Figure 1). It

proved a miserable time for Labour, with an average decline in vote share of 12 percentage

points, the loss of two out of every three seats it was defending and defeat to the

Conservatives in each of the four remaining shire counties under its control. It was a

historic low point for Labour, eclipsing its disastrous performances in 1967 and 1968.

While not quite a disaster for the Liberal Democrats the election outcome was a

clear warning because although it gained Bristol it lost control to the Conservatives in

both Somerset and Devon. In its far southwest bastion of Cornwall the Liberal Democrats

were overtaken as largest party by the Conservatives.

Naturally, given the proximity of a general election, there is great interest in what

these results portend for the next battle for parliamentary control. In our analysis for

The Sunday Times published just two days after the election we examined the distribution

Page 9: LOCAL ELECTIONS HANDBOOK 20 09 · Kerry Baskett Joe Evison Andy McMullen Justin Beament Karen Fittock S teve Monk ... that Labour would suffer but all of the major parties were feeling

viii

of 4.5 million votes. This analysis led to an estimated national equivalent vote of 35%

for the Conservatives, well short of the symbolically important 40% mark but a comfortable

lead nevertheless over Labour. Labour’s poor performance, an estimated national vote

of 22%, saw it slip into third place behind the Liberal Democrats on 25%. This left

‘others’ on around 18%, more than double the figure obtained at the 2005 general

election.

While the Conservatives rightly celebrated, their critics were keen to argue that

disgruntled Labour (and to a lesser extent Liberal Democrat) voters had not transferred

unequivocally into the Tory camp. Almost one in twenty votes went to the Greens,

Independents and UKIP respectively while the British National Party fielded a record

number of candidates for this set of elections. In some counties, most notably

Staffordshire, the vote shares for these minor parties increased dramatically. With the

exception of Independents, however, these votes did not result in the capture of many

seats, leading to the current councillor numbers shown in Table 1.

Following the substitution of some two-tier county authorities with unitary

councils, there are now 35 fewer councils and 1,402 fewer councillors than existed

last year. The Conservatives now hold 46.1% of all council seats in Britain. The

party’s grip is stronger still in terms of council control and 51.6% of local authorities

now have a Conservative-run administration. This is a radical departure from the

position the party faced in the mid 1990s.

It is the fate of governing parties, of course, to suffer successive local election

losses and Labour has not escaped this fate. It controls just 21.4% of seats and a

meagre 9.1% of local authorities. Labour is only narrowly ahead of the Liberal Democrats

(19.7% of seats and 6.4% of councils). Independents and others are largely unchanged

with one councillor in ten coming from this grouping. Three in ten authorities are hung

and administration is either the responsibility of a single minority party or a majority led

coalition.

Nine of the 34 councils underwent a change in political control. As Table 2 shows,

four councils moved directly from Labour to Conservative control while a further two

transferred to the Conservatives from the Liberal Democrats. The collapse in Labour’s

vote was most dramatic in Staffordshire. Here, compared with the previous result in

2005, Labour support fell by almost twenty percentage points (Table A2). In its three

remaining county defeats Labour’s vote fell between 12-13 percentage points. The drop

in support for Labour did not result in an equivalent gain for the Conservatives. In

Staffordshire, for example, the party’s vote rose by five percentage points, less than half

the rise in vote share seen for ‘other’ parties.

Almost seven million votes were cast (Table 3) with the Conservatives receiving

44.4% share, more than three times Labour’s support. The Liberal Democrats finished

in second place, capturing one in four votes. As stated earlier, the minor parties polled

rather well. Both the Greens and UKIP won 4.6% of votes with Independents only

marginally behind these totals. Support for the BNP was 2.5% overall. Conservative

candidates were present in nearly every ward while the Liberal Democrats stood more

candidates than did Labour. In more than a third of wards electors could choose to vote

for the Green Party. UKIP stood candidates in one in four wards and the BNP averaged

in one in every five. The relative dominance of the Conservatives virtually ensured a

rather large ‘winner’s bonus’; the party won two-thirds of seats. By contrast, Labour

found itself relegated to the status of a small party, receiving a smaller share of seats

than votes. The Liberal Democrats although polling one in four votes could only win one

in five seats. The fate of smaller parties was more desperate. Despite winning a

combined 11.7% of votes the Greens, BNP and UKIP won slightly more than one in

every hundred seats.

Table 4 shows that only one ward was uncontested; in 1993 some 60 county

divisions in England saw councillors returned unopposed. Three-quarters of all contests

featured candidates from all three main parties. In a further 9.1% of cases electors

could choose between Conservative and Labour while 12.8% of wards featured a battle

between Conservative and Liberal Democrats. The competition for county council seats

proved greater than that for the unitary authorities, including the new councils that were

replacing former counties. Almost nine thousand candidates came forward to battle for

votes with one in four successfully elected.

Women candidates accounted for 28% of the total; 27.4% in county authorities

and slightly more, 30.5% in unitary areas. There remains considerable variability across

authorities in the proportion of women candidates standing. In West Somerset, for

example, women accounted for over half the total and in ten other areas, including

Daventry, Eastbourne, Lincoln and Welwyn Hatfield, the proportion was more than four

women for every ten candidates. By contrast in Crawley, Melton and Ribble Valley,

women candidates were notable for their scarcity, each authority having below 10% of

the total candidates. Almost six hundred of the women standing were elected, 23.1%

of all women that stood. Exactly one in four of councillors elected in 2009 are women,

a lower proportion than in recent years and confirmation that the county authorities

seem to attract fewer women candidates and councillors than other types of authority.

Councillors seeking re-election numbered 1,919 in total; 1,401 of these stood in

the county elections but there were 518 that contested seats in the unitary council

areas. In the newly created unitary areas there were a number of wards with more than

one incumbent challenging. This was because the replacement of two-tier local

government with a single authority led to a reduction of councils and therefore councillors

in these areas. While 19.1% of county candidates were incumbents seeking re-election

the proportion in the unitary areas rises as high as 31.6%. In three-quarters of county

divisions there was an incumbent on the ballot but the proportion exceeded 100% in the

unitary authorities because of so many incumbents chasing seats. The chances of an

incumbent being re-elected subsequently varied between the county and unitary areas.

Some 76.9% of incumbents were re-elected in the 27 English counties but the percentage

falls to 66.6% in the unitary authorities. The proportions are reversed, of course, in the

figures for incumbents as a percentage of all councillors elected; for the counties this is

58.0% but in the unitary councils it rises to 75%.

Turnout, measured in a variety of ways, was just over 39%. It was slightly higher

in the seven unitary areas than in the counties. The south-western counties of Devon

and Dorset top the list with turnout almost reaching 44% whilst Lincolnshire, and

surprisingly Staffordshire given its competitive state, had the lowest turnouts of around

36%. Examining turnout at the district level reveals that South Lakeland had the highest

turnout with 50% of the electorate voting whilst in Cannock Chase in Staffordshire only

29.7% of the eligible electorate voted. Of course, since recent county elections have

coincided with general elections, including the 2005 contests, there is a dramatic fall in

turnout. Once again, Dorset tops the list, sharing that spot with Gloucestershire where

turnout fell by 27 percentage points compared with general election day 2005. Even

Cumbria, which suffered the smallest drop in turnout, saw it fall by 21 points. Among

modern liberal democracies the UK has one of the highest gaps in turnout between

parliamentary and local/European elections. A more positive spin on turnout is that

compared with 1993 it is marginally higher and is the same as it was in 1989.

Mayoral Elections

Additional to the county and unitary elections there were three to re-elect mayors

in Doncaster, Hartlepool and North Tyneside respectively (Table 5).

Stuart Drummond was re-elected again for Hartlepool and will now serve a third

term having been elected first in 2002 whilst campaigning as H’Angus the Monkey, the

local football club’s mascot. Drummond received just over five thousand first votes and

a further 1,599 second votes. He was joined in the second vote run-off by local taxi firm

owner, Ian Cameron, also standing as an Independent. Labour’s candidate, Chris

Simmons polled 13.6% of first votes and was eliminated under the Supplementary Vote

rules, as were a further ten candidates. Drummond’s combined first and second vote

total is just 33.7% of total first votes cast. Turnout was 31.9%, higher than the 28.8%

recorded when Drummond was first elected Hartlepool’s mayor.

The result in Doncaster also saw the second vote count featuring two candidates

from outside the party political mainstream. The election was won by Peter Davies, a

former school teacher, standing for the English Democrats after the expected winner,

Sandra Holland standing for Labour, was edged into third place after the first vote count.

The second vote contest featured Michael Maye, another Independent who won 7,840

second votes re-distributed from first votes ballots cast for eliminated candidates. This

was fewer than the more than eight thousand votes received by Davies who was duly

elected. Davies total vote, 25,344 is 32% of total first votes. Some 35.8% of the

electorate voted, a rise of almost nine percentage points compared with the initial election

for Doncaster’s mayor in 2002.

The outcome in North Tyneside was rather more predictable with Linda Arkley re-

elected for another four years. She first won the mayoralty in a by-election in June 2003

but then was defeated in 2005 by John Harrison standing for Labour. These two finished

in the top two places after first votes were counted and although her lead over the

incumbent narrowed Linda Arkley was elected with a combined total of 27,083 votes,

46.4% of total first votes. None of the three elected mayors, therefore, received an

absolute majority of votes cast.

Using the Handbook

In 2009 there were elections in England for a total of 34 local authorities comprising

27 counties and 7 unitary authorities, three of which, Cornwall, Shropshire and Wiltshire,

were replacing former counties. In addition, there were Mayoral elections in Doncaster,

Hartlepool and North Tyneside respectively.

The Handbook is organised into two sections, which cover the county and unitary

councils respectively. Results are reported in alphabetical order (in the case of counties

also by alphabetical order of district) of ward name. Election results have generally

been taken from figures provided by, and checked with, Electoral Administrators.

Before the ward results we have provided a section containing aggregate data

covering each local authority. Results for each authority were aggregated to produce

this set of summary statistics. These include the percentage vote share for a range of

parties and independent candidates. Where more than one councillor is elected then

the vote of the best placed candidate for each party is used in calculating total vote. In

contests featuring multiple Independent candidates these were grouped according to

the number of seats in a ward. In the case of a three-member seat with six Independent

candidates, therefore, the votes of the first and fourth placed Independent contribute

towards the total vote figure. The number of seats contested and the number of seats

won by each party is also noted.

Turnout, in brackets after the name of the authority, is the average turnout in those

divisions/wards which had a contested election. The Appendix contains details of local

authority turnout that has been calculated using different methods. These methods will

produce slightly different figures for those authorities that have a large range for electorates

and where complex patterns of contestation result in an under- or over-estimate of

actual votes cast. In the majority of cases the differences between the methods are

rather small. Reported turnout is a calculation based on the ward figures provided by

each local authority – in theory this should be most accurate if note is taken of the

actual number of ballot papers counted in the case of ward elections involving more

than one vacancy. These data are not always given, and for this reason we have

developed different techniques for overcoming this. The calculation of “average top vote”

is based on the following procedure. Where wards elect more than one councillor then

the vote for the best placed candidate for each party is used in calculating total total

vote. In the case of Independent candidates these are grouped according to the number

of seats in a ward. This total is divided by eligible electorate to arrive at the level of

Page 20: LOCAL ELECTIONS HANDBOOK 20 09 · Kerry Baskett Joe Evison Andy McMullen Justin Beament Karen Fittock S teve Monk ... that Labour would suffer but all of the major parties were feeling

xix

percentage turnout. The third measure, average weighted sum turnout, employs the

Ware algorithm, a more sophisticated measure than that used for average top vote

described above. An extensive discussion of this algorithm can be found in Ware, L.,

G. Borisyuk, C. Rallings, and M. Thrasher. “A New Algorithm for Estimating Voter Turnout

When the Number of Ballot Papers Issued Is Unknown.” Electoral Studies 25, no. 1

(2006): 59-71.

In those authorities where a direct comparison with the 2005 election is possible

we have also provided the percentage change for the different parties. In some councils

this has not proved practicable because of the nature of their electoral cycles, boundary

changes and structural change.

The final two lines of the summary of aggregate statistics provide information

relating to the number of candidates fielded by each party as well as the number of

candidates successfully elected. Note, that since some councils are electing only a

fraction of the council body that the ‘seats won’ category does not equate to the full

council composition.

In the main body of the book the results for each ward are listed in alphabetical

order within each local authority. The figure in brackets is the electorate for 2009. The

practice adopted by local authorities for calculating this figure varies but the introduction

of rolling electoral registers means that this figure is a good approximation of the numbers

eligible to vote on election day. Nevertheless, it has been impossible to adopt a standard

definition of electorate or reliably to identify the particular procedures used by each

authority when compiling this figure.

The appearance of a date in [square brackets] after the electorate indicates

that for some reason the election was not held on June 4 but was contested on the

later, specified date – this year there were 2 such contests – one in Ramsey division,

Cambridgeshire and one in Kirk Hallam division Derbyshire. Both of these contests

were held in July.

Candidates are listed in descending order of vote within each ward. The first initial

is given; ‘Ms.’ after a candidate’s name indicates a woman; and ‘*’ indicates that the

candidate was a sitting councillor, although not necessarily for the same ward. Vote is

the number of electors who supported each candidate and Share the proportion of the

total number who cast a valid ballot supporting each candidate. The process of rounding

means that some shares do not necessarily sum to 100.

In the case of multi-member wards where more than one vacancy was filled we

have used the vote of each party’s best placed candidate in order to calculate total vote

and hence party shares. Where a candidate(s) was returned unopposed then either ‘0’

or ‘0.0’ are used in the fields for vote, share and turnout.

Below the list of candidates is a further line of data. First, we print the name of the

party whose candidate finished top of the poll at the previous election – note: the year

varies according to the particular electoral cycle for that ward.

Page 21: LOCAL ELECTIONS HANDBOOK 20 09 · Kerry Baskett Joe Evison Andy McMullen Justin Beament Karen Fittock S teve Monk ... that Labour would suffer but all of the major parties were feeling

xx

Next, is recorded the percentage turnout. Turnout is the proportion of the electorate

that cast valid ballots at the election. In the overwhelming majority of cases in 2009

turnout is that given by the local Electoral Administrator and has thus been calculated

knowing the number of valid ballot papers issued. In a relatively small number of cases

we have ourselves calculated turnout from the available information but this year only for

single member wards – turnout data for all multimember divisions/wards has been

collected from Electoral Administrators. The figure to the right of the turnout represents

the lead of the winning party over the second placed party in percentage terms rounded

to one decimal place. The process of rounding means that in some cases the percentage

majority may not be exactly the same as the winning party’s vote share minus the

second-placed party’s share.

Candidates standing for local election use an extensive variety of party labels that

now have to be officially registered with the Electoral Commission. These have been

used throughout the Handbook, leading to a proliferation of party labels. These labels,

and the abbreviations we have used, are described below.
