There are 3 by-elections during the second half of February, 10 now in March and 1 already in April. This brings the year to date total ahead of the 2019 May elections to 24, of which 20 are in England and 2 in both Scotland and Wales.
There are in addition 7 identified vacancies where the date of the forthcoming election is not yet known, although
* 3 of these have elections in the same ward in May and could well then see a "double" election whilst
* 3 are for County Councils Divisions where there are all out District elections in May when the by-elections could be held at the same time.
There is also an impending vacancy in a ward where a by-election was held last week.
The 12 previously identified vacancies arising before the "six month" rule became operable and which are to be contested in May will remain vacant until then.

RUTLAND UA (Oakham SW, IND) Richard Alderman, has finally quit. Six-month rule applies. A shame he left in disgrace, or he could have looked forward to becoming Alderman Alderman. |

The Rosehill by-election on Burnley Borough Council has been called for 11th April, despite the round of thirds elections being held in all wards just three weeks later on May 2nd. Two electors have requested the by-election, which must then be held within the set timeframe, at an additional cost of around £5,000 to £6,000 .... just a stupid waste of money, when a double vacancy election could have been held in this 3 seat ward just three weeks later !!

The new councillor's term won't end in 3 weeks, otherwise that vacancy would have been covered under the 6 month rule and a double election would have been held in May. |

RBKC Dalgarno candidates: Kasim Mohamed ALI (Labour Party) Samia BENTAYEB (Conservative Party Candidate) Callum DORRINGTON HUTTON (UK Independence Party (UKIP)) Angela Victoria GEORGIEVSKI (Green Party) Alexandra Mary TATTON-BROWN (Liberal Democrats) Probably Labour’s safest ward in K&C and one of their safest in London full stop. Nothing to see here. |
