There are 11 by-elections identified during March although one candidate so far has been returned unopposed. A further 14 vacancies are known where the election has as yet no date, although it is all but certain 9 will see no by-election as they are to be contested again in May, along with 2 impending resignations so the vacancy can be filled on 7th May. So far 33 vacancies have been identified under the "six month" rule.
There are thus 21 by-elections for 22 seats already scheduled in the January to April 2015 period ahead of the main elections in May. A total close to the 22 contested during the same period in 2011 looks very likely.

The Western Isles, Beinn na Foghla agus Uibhist Tuath contest on 26th March following the resignation of a Labour councillor, has just two candidates, SNP and Independent. The Independent looks as though he was the SNP candidate in 2012 coming 4th behind the 3 that were elected.

Not strictly the right thread. Sadly Councillor Maelor Williams has died. He was Liberal Democrats councillor for Stainton and Thornton ward on Middlesbrough Council so they'll be a by-election at some point. A lovely bloke. 6 month rule |
