The names of all the local election candidates standing in Leeds this year have been published.
Voters across the city will head to the polls on Thursday, May 4, to elect a councillor to represent their local area. A third of Leeds City Council’s 99 seats – one in each of the 33 wards across the city – are being contested.
The candidate who receives the most votes in each ward will be elected to serve an initial four-year term on the council. The outcome of the elections will be crucial in defining the council’s political makeup for the next 12 months.
