Striped divisions have mixed representation. Council control Council control after election Conservative Conservative An election to Worcestershire County Council took place on 2 May 2013 as part of the 2013 United Kingdom local elections. 57 councillors were elected from 53 electoral divisions, which returned either one or two county councillors each by first-past-the-post voting for a four-year term of office. The divisions were the same as those used at the previous election in 2009. The election saw the Conservative Party retain overall control of the council with a significantly reduced majority of just 2 seats. All locally registered electors (British, Commonwealth and European Union citizens) who were aged 18 or over on Thursday 2 May 2013 were entitled to vote in the local elections. Those who were temporarily away from their ordinary address (for example, away working, on holiday, in student accommodation or in hospital) were also entitled to vote in the local elections,http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2006/1694/schedule/made The Representation of the People (Form of Canvass) (England and Wales) Regulations 2006, Schedule Part 1 Legislation.gov.uk 13 October 2011 18 April 2012 although those who had moved abroad and registered as overseas electors cannot vote in the local elections. It is possible to register to vote at more than one address (such as a university student who had a term-time address and lives at home during holidays) at the discretion of the local Electoral Register Office, but it remains an offence to vote more than once in the same local government election.http://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/faq/voting-and-registration/i-have-two-homes.-can-i-register-to-vote-at-both-addresses I have two homes.
