An election to Lincolnshire County Council took place on 2 May 2013 as part of the 2013 United Kingdom local elections. 77 electoral divisions returned one county councillor each by first-past-the-post voting for a four-year term of office. The electoral divisions were the same as those used at the previous election in 2009. No elections were held in North Lincolnshire or North East Lincolnshire, which are unitary authorities outside the area covered by the County Council.
All locally registered electors (British, Irish, 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.

Summary
The election saw the Conservative Party lose overall control of the council. The party previously enjoyed a sizable majority, holding around three quarters of the seats. After the election, the Conservatives found themselves 6 seats short of an overall majority; the UK Independence Party was the council's second biggest party, with 16 seats.Local Elections Archive Project - 2013 - Lincolnshire https://www.andrewteale.me.uk/leap/results/2013/389/ 2024-04-12 www.andrewteale.me.uk2013-05-01 Lincolnshire election 2013: UKIP ousts deputy leader as Tories lose control https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-lincolnshire-22368849 2024-04-09 BBC News en-GB The Conservative group negotiated a coalition deal with the Liberal Democrats, whereby there was one Liberal Democrat cabinet member. UKIP replaced the Liberal Democrats as the council's official opposition.http://thelincolnite.co.uk/2013/05/coalition-lincolnshire-county-council-cabinet-named/ https://web.archive.org/web/20160304185015/http://thelincolnite.co.uk/2013/05/coalition-lincolnshire-county-council-cabinet-named/ usurped 4 March 2016 Coalition Lincolnshire County Council cabinet named The Lincolnite 17 May 2013
UKIP lost six of its councillors to defections shortly after the election, and as a result Labour became the official opposition.
