The2019 Bolsover District Council election took place on 2 May 2019 to elect all 37 members ofBolsover District Council in England.[1] This was on the same day as otherlocal elections.
The election resulted in theLabour Party losing control of the council for the first time in 40 years after winning 18 seats, one short of a majority.Independents made gains largely at the expense of Labour, winning 16 seats.[2]
