Candidates revealed for Lincoln local elections

The City of Lincoln Council and its neighbours released the lists of candidates for the May 2 local elections.

In the city, the elections are only for one third of councillors.

In North Kesteven (including North Hykeham and Bracebridge Heath) and West Lindsey (including Cherry Willingham, Dunholme, Nettleham, Saxilby, Sudbrooke, Scampton), the elections are all-out, meaning all council seats are up for elections.

Some wards are uncontested, meaning that the nominated (or sitting) councillor has no opponents in this election — and there will be no election carried out in that ward.

In North Kesteven and West Lindsey the same party could have more than one candidate in a ward, as each ward could have multiple seats.

Also noteworthy, you will need to bring a form of ID if you vote in the North Kesteven region, as the council is taking part in a Voter ID trial pilot.

Below is the list of candidates standing in Lincoln city and its neighbouring districts of North Kesteven and West Lindsey. Scroll down to find out who’s standing in your ward, or alternatively press Ctrl + F and search for your ward name.
