Is the political landscape in Watford, Hertsmere, Three Rivers and Dacorum about to change?
Prospective councillors in Watford, Hertsmere, Three Rivers and Dacorum have been battling it out for voters’ support ahead of tomorrow’s vote.
The political landscape is particularly interesting in Hertsmere and Dacorum – where there are “all out” elections – while in Watford and Three Rivers there are 12 and 14 seats up for grabs respectively.One seat in each of the town’s 12 wards will need to be filled when voters elect the people and parties they want to represent them.
The Herts local authority is made up of 36 members. The majority of these – 27 members – belong to the Liberal Democrat Group. The Labour Group is the only political opposition in the town, with nine seats. Watford is also one of 16 local authorities in England to have a directly elected council leader – the Mayor. Peter Taylor was re-elected into post last year and will not face an election again until 2026.Hertsmere Borough Council – which covers Borehamwood, Bushey, Potters Bar and Radlett – is currently controlled by the Conservative Group, with 28 councillors on the authority benches.
An additional vacancy in Chorleywood South and Maple Cross has come about following the resignation of Liberal Democrat councillor Martin Trevett, who stepped back due to ill health.
