Ward results

Candidate vote shares have been calculated as a percentage of the number of electors who voted in each ward.

The turnout figures listed below refer to the total numbers of votes cast in each relevant ward; each voter was entitled to cast up to three votes.

The ‘majority’ number is the margin of votes between the lowest-placed winning party candidate and the runner-up party's highest-placed losing candidate. Starred candidates are the incumbents.
