Summary Election result The governing group of Conservative councillors retained the same overall level of representation across the district, with the exception of two seats held by councillors from other political parties, as had been the case prior to the election. In the two-member wards of Althorne and Southminster, one non-Conservative councillor was returned in each: Southminster remained represented by an independent councillor, while Althorne saw a gain for UKIP from the Conservatives. In both wards, these councillors will jointly represent their areas alongside a Conservative member. The election concluded with a Conservative gain from an independent in Burnham-on-Crouch North, resulting in 24 of the district’s 26 seats being held by the governing party. 2015 Maldon District Council electionhttps://www.electionscentre.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/composition_calc.html Composition calculator 12 January 2026 Colin Rallings & Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre, Plymouth University Conservative Party (UK) 31 28 1 1 90.3 26,993 58.3 –8.1 Independent politician 10 2 0 1 1 6.5 7,055 15.3 +0.9 UKIP 6 1 1 0 1 3.2 3,477 7.5 +6.7 Labour Party (UK) 11 0 0 0 0.0 4,393 9.5 –1.0 Green Party of England and Wales 9 0 0 0 0.0 3,370 7.3 +2.6 British National Party 2 0 0 0 0.0 642 1.4 –0.8 Liberal Democrats (UK) 1 0 0 0 0.0 331 0.7 –0.3 The BNP candidates stood under the description "Fighting unsustainable housing because we care", with no references to their party on the ballot paper.
