Elections ofpolice and crime commissioners in England and Wales were held on 5 May 2016.[1][2][3]
The elections were for 40 of the 43territorial police forces in England and Wales using thesupplementary vote system; the two police forces ofGreater London are not involved (the electedMayor of London is classed as the police and crime commissioner for theMetropolitan Police District, while theCourt of Common Council fulfils the role for theCity of London Police). There was no election for theGreater Manchester Police as the role of police and crime commissioner was due to be abolished in 2017 and replaced with the directly electedMayor of Greater Manchester.[4] Elections for police and crime commissioners do not take place in Scotland or Northern Ireland as policing and justice powers are devolved to the Scottish Parliament and Northern Ireland Assembly.[5]
This was the second time police and crime commissioner elections had been held.
The election used thesupplementary vote system: voters were instructed to mark the ballot paper with their first and second choices of candidate (although there were an unusually large number of spoilt ballots). If no candidate got a majority of first preference votes, the top two candidates went on to a second round in which second preference votes of the eliminated candidates were allocated to them to produce a winner. This is the system used to elect London's mayor.[6] Section 57 of thePolice Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011 directs that the voting system isfirst past the post if there are only two candidates for a specific commissioner region.[7]
The role of police and crime commissioner for theGreater Manchester Police was abolished in 2017 and replaced with the directly electedMayor of Greater Manchester, who assumed the responsibilities of the police and crime commissioner. No election was therefore held in 2016 andTony Lloyd remained as police and crime commissioner and interim mayor until the mayoral election took place in 2017.[4]
BothLabour and theConservatives fielded candidates in all 40 elections, whileUKIP fielded 34 candidates and theLiberal Democrats 30 candidates. TheGreen Party fielded seven candidates and theEnglish Democrats four candidates.Plaid Cymru fielded candidates for all four Welsh seats. There were 29 other candidates; 25 stood as independents and four stood under other labels (one asLincolnshire Independents and three asZero Tolerance Policing ex Chief).
