In that election, twelve Conservative candidates and seven Labour candidates were elected.http://www.andrewteale.me.uk/leap/results/2006/102/ Local Elections Archive Project - 2006 - Plymouth andrewteale.me.uk en 2018-05-07 This election followed a by-election in Ham, which resulted in a Labour hold.http://www.plymouth.gov.uk/homepage/councilanddemocracy/electoral/pccelections/pccelectionresults/hambyelection.htm Ham by-election 2009-09-03 Plymouth City Council 8 May 2010 The Conservative Party had control of the council ahead of this election, with 37 councillors and a majority of eight seats. The Conservatives were defending 12 seats, the Labour Party 6 and the former Labour candidate, Andy Kerswell, was defending his seat in Efford and Lipson as an independent. If the Labour Party was to regain the majority they held on the council until 2006, they needed to gain 11 seats, which they failed to do, although made two gains (one against a Conservative and the other against Andy Kerswell) despite a national swing against them.
