Results of the 2002 Stratford-on-Avon District Council election

The2002 Stratford-on-Avon District Council election took place on 2 May 2002 to elect members ofStratford-on-Avon District Council inWarwickshire, England. The whole council was up for election with boundary changes since thelast election in 2000 reducing the number of seats by 2.^[1] TheConservative Party stayed in overall control of the council.^[2]

Campaign

[edit]

All of the seats on the council were contested after boundary changes had reduced the number of seats from 55 to 53.^[3] Before the election the Conservatives ran the council with an overall majority of 1 seat.^[3]

TheLiberal Democrats were the main opposition on the council and contested 46 of the 53 seats.^[4] They attacked the Conservatives for increasingcouncil tax since taking control in 2000, while cutting grants to various groups and moving the council offices to a rented site.^[4] The Conservatives however defended their record saying that the move in council offices would save money and that they had introduced a newbus pass allowing cheaper travel.^[5] Other issues raised in the election includedsocial housing, the environment, speeding traffic and recycling.^[5]

The results were counted electronically as part of a pilot scheme,^[3] while voters were able to useelectronic voting in 140 electronic polling booths.^[6] This was expected to lead to results being declared much earlier than in many areas, with some expected within minutes of polls closing.^[5] However whileturnout was quite high at around 40%, the results were delayed after the computers did not perform as well as expected.^[7]

Election result

[edit]

The results saw the Conservatives retain an overall majority of just 1 seat on the council.^[7] They made gains inEttington,Snitterfield and the newward ofStockton andNapton, but lost seats inStudley andHarbury.^[7] The Liberal Democrats made gains primarily at the expense ofindependents, who lost the most seats in the election.^[7] Meanwhile,Labour retained their 2 seats inSoutham, but failed to make any gains.^[7]
