The 2017 Surrey County Council election took place as part of the 2017 local elections in the UK. [1] All 81 councillors were elected for single-member electoral divisions for a four-year term. The electoral system used is first-past-the-post voting.

Surrey County Council British administrative authority

Surrey County Council is the county council administering certain services in the non-metropolitan county of Surrey in England. The council is composed of 81 elected Councillors, the majority of whom are members of the Conservative party. The leader of the council is Tim Oliver.

The wards and electoral divisions in the United Kingdom are electoral districts at sub-national level represented by one or more councillors. The ward is the primary unit of English electoral geography for civil parishes and borough and district councils, electoral ward is the unit used by Welsh principal councils, while the electoral division is the unit used by English county councils and some unitary authorities. Each ward/division has an average electorate of about 5,500 people, but ward-population counts can vary substantially. As at the end of 2014 there were 9,456 electoral wards/divisions in the UK.

The result was Conservative councillors formed an increased majority on the council at the equivalent loss of three seats formerly won by UKIP. Two tied second-largest party groupings of councillors were unaltered as to their seats, on net balance. These were Liberal Democrats and an informal alliance of Independent and Residents Association councillors: nine councillors each. The balance of two councillors continued as one Labour Party and one Green Party of England and Wales member.
