The 2015 Harlow District Council election took place on 7 May 2015 to elect members of Harlow District Council in Essex, England. One third of the council was up for election and Labour party councillors increased their control of the council as the governing group, gaining one councillor and suffering no losses. After the election, the composition of the council was *Labour 19 *Conservative 12 *UK Independence Party 2 ==Background== After the last election in 2014 Labour remained in control of the council with 17 councillors, while the Conservatives had 11 seats and the UK Independence Party had 5 seats. However Labour gained a seat from the UK Independence Party at a by-election for Mark Hall ward in February 2015. A UKIP councillor for Great Parndon ward, Terry Spooner, resigned in March to retire to Dorset so two of its three seats were contested at the 2015 election, leading to 12 seats up for election, which were contested by 43 candidates: 12 each affiliated to Labour, the Conservatives and UKIP and seven Liberal Democrats. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Harlow District Council election, 2015」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
