Local elections 2024: Leeds City Council results as the winners were announced
Voters in Leeds have had their say in the 2024 local council elections.
The polls closed at 10pm last night (Thursday, May 2) and counting got underway at the John Charles Centre for Sport in Middleton this morning.
Voting was for election to Leeds City Council, as well as for the regional Mayor of West Yorkshire.
The Labour group, which controls Leeds City Council, said the vote was the last chance people have to make their voices heard before the next general election.
Today’s counting was for 33 seats being contested at Leeds City Council - one for each ward - and tomorrow (Saturday) will see the count begin for the West Yorkshire Mayor election.
