The Cornwall Council election, 2013, was an election for all 123 seats on the council. Cornwall Council is a unitary authority that covers the majority of the ceremonial county of Cornwall, with the exception of the Isles of Scilly which have an independent local authority. The elections took place concurrently with other local elections across England and Wales.
The Conservatives lost 18 seats, meaning they were no longer the largest group in the council. A new coalition was formed, between the Independents and the Liberal Democrats.
Background
The elections for Cornwall Council were the second since its creation in 2009. Cornwall had previously been administered as a non-metropolitan county, with local government powers split between Cornwall County Council and the six non-metropolitan districts of Caradon, Carrick, Kerrier, North Cornwall, Penwith and Restormel. These were abolished as part of the 2009 structural changes to local government in England, which created a singular unitary authority.Unitary status agreed for council https://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/cornwall/7129905.stm BBC News 5 December 2007 5 May 2013 The elections in 2009 resulted in no group gaining a majority.Election 09 LIVE BLOG http://www.thisiscornwall.co.uk/Election-09-BLOG/story-11444369-detail/story.html#axzz2SWTiCdQp https://archive.today/20130707071127/http://www.thisiscornwall.co.uk/Election-09-BLOG/story-11444369-detail/story.html%23axzz2SWTiCdQp dead 7 July 2013 Thisiscornwall.com Local World 29 April 2011 6 May 2013 The Conservative and Independent councillors formed a coalition to control the council, choosing the Conservative Alec Robertson as the leader.Split vote sees Cornwall's Tory council leader clings on to position http://www.thisiscornwall.co.uk/Leader-survives-party/story-11471756-detail/story.html#axzz2SWTiCdQp https://archive.today/20130707060851/http://www.thisiscornwall.co.uk/Leader-survives-party/story-11471756-detail/story.html%23axzz2SWTiCdQp dead 7 July 2013 Thisiscornwall.com Local World 5 June 2009 6 May 2013
The Boundary Commission had undertaken a review of the council's electoral divisions, which resulted in a number of changes to their boundaries and a reduction from 123 to 122 wards. One ward, Bude, would elect two councillors while the rest were represented by a single-member, leaving the number of councillors unchanged. All wards were contested in the election, with a total of 480 candidates standing across the county.Cornwall Council election sees 480 candidates https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-cornwall-22081857 BBC News 9 April 2013 6 May 2013Wallis Andrew Cornwall Council Candidates by political groups http://www.cllrandrewwallis.co.uk/cornwall-council-candidates-by-political-groups/ Cllr Andrew Wallis' blog 16 April 2013 6 May 2013 The Conservatives had the most candidates with 103, followed by the Liberal Democrats with 91 and the United Kingdom Independence Party with 77 candidates.

Campaign
The campaign was set against the backdrop of the Great Recession of the late 2000s, under a Labour government, and the subsequent public sector budget cuts of the Conservative-Liberal Democrat coalition government. There were also many issues that were pertinent to local voters in Cornwall, including the building of new houses, wind turbines, transportation infrastructure, jobs losses at the authority and the recent Council Tax freeze.Over to you fair Cornwall – it's time to get out and vote http://www.falmouthpacket.co.uk/news/cornwall_news/10393142.Over_to_you_fair_Cornwall___it_s_time_to_get_out_and_vote/ Falmouth Packet 14 March 2014 1 May 2013Cornwall Council elections preview http://www.thisiscornwall.co.uk/Cornwall-Council-elections-preview/story-18869388-detail/story.html https://archive.today/20140314164738/http://www.thisiscornwall.co.uk/Cornwall-Council-elections-preview/story-18869388-detail/story.html dead 14 March 2014 ThisisCornwall.com Local World 14 March 2014 2 May 2013
The Conservative Party, speculated to be facing losses, hoped to attract voters through their previous record as the major party in the outgoing Conservative-Independent council administration.
The Liberal Democrats, trying to become the largest party within the council, focused its campaign on cutting economic waste and increasing investment in transport infrastructure.Lib Dems launch election campaign http://www.thisiscornwall.co.uk/Lib-Dems-launch-election-campaign/story-18478715-detail/story.html https://archive.today/20140317202753/http://www.thisiscornwall.co.uk/Lib-Dems-launch-election-campaign/story-18478715-detail/story.html dead 17 March 2014 ThisisCornwall.com Local World 17 March 2014 21 March 2013
