The 2024 Harlow District Council election was held on Thursday 2 May 2024, alongside the other local elections in the United Kingdom being held on the same day. All 33 members of Harlow District Council in Essex were elected following boundary changes.
Historically, Harlow was a Labour council. Labour held a majority on the council from its creation until 2002, when the district fell into no overall control. [1] The Conservatives held a majority for the first time following the 2008 election, but Labour retook control in 2012.
The Conservative won a majority on the council in 2021, [2] and have governed as a majority since then. In the most recent election, the Conservatives gained 1 seat with 41.5% of the vote, and Labour lost 1 seat with 43.8%.
In the build up to the May 2024 election, Conservative candidate James Leppard was suspended from the party pending investigation [3] , following a Hope Not Hate allegation of Islamophobia. [4]
Harlow usually elects its councillors in thirds, on a 4-year cycle. However, following boundary changes, all councillors will be elected to the new wards. [5] All wards have 3 councillors.
