Southend Local Elections 2019
The 2019 Southend-on-Sea Borough Council election will take place on the 9th May 2019 to elect members of Southend-on-Sea Borough Council in England.[1]
Propsects[edit]
Due to how the southend council system works, only a third of council seats are up for election this year. Due to this the councillors up for reelection in 2019 are the councillors elected in the 2015 Southend-on-Sea Borough Council election. This means that the Labour party are defending 2 council seats (However the Labour councillor for the Kursaal ward Judith Mchmahon defected to the Conservatives [2] .), the Conservative Party are defending 13 wards (Including Kursaal ward) and Southend Independents defending 2 wards.
The Conservatives cant lose more than 3 wards if they wish to maintain their majority. However out of the wards they are defending, 5 wards voted for a different party in 2018 [3] .
Composition[edit]
Before the election, the composition of the council was:
| 11 | 9 | 2 | 29 |
| Labour | Ind | Lib Dem | Conservative |
