Sheffield City Council elections took place on Thursday 6 May 2010. There were 28 seats up for election in 2010, one of the three councillors from each ward. Since the previous election, Liberal Democrat councillor Frank Taylor had defected to an Independent leaving the Liberal Democrats with 44 councillors. Turnout was up dramatically with it being held alongside the general election, to 62.6%. The higher turnout helped mainly Labour against their electoral rivals, who managed to return the council to no overall control with three gains. http://www.sheffield.gov.uk/your-city-council/elections/election-results/2010 Sheffield 2010 election results sheffield.gov.uk 2011-11-06 https://web.archive.org/web/20111118155248/http://www.sheffield.gov.uk/your-city-council/elections/election-results/2010 18 November 2011 dead This was bolstered by the newly elected Liberal Democrat in Walkley defecting to Labour immediately after being elected.2010-09-17 Lib Dem councillor defects to Labour Party in Sheffield https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-11347619 2024-03-06 BBC News en-GB
