1984 UK local government election

Map of the results of the 1984 Wigan council election.

Elections to theWigan council were held on Thursday, 3 May 1984, with one third of the seats up for vote. Three wards – Abram,Hindley and Lightshaw – were unopposed, leaving only twenty one of the twenty four wards going to vote – a number not seen since1975. Also of note was the re-emergence of a fourth party, in the way of persistentCommunist candidate H. Kedward contesting Leigh Central after a three-year absence. The election itself seen aLabour gain inOrrell from theConservatives, which cancelled out the simultaneousAlliance gain from Labour inAspell-Standish, leaving their majority unchanged. Overall turnout slumped to 29.2%, the lowest level since the aforementioned 1975 election.^[1]
