How many people are standing in the Crawley elections 2021?
Forty-eight candidates will be hoping for good luck on May 6 when Crawley goes to the polls to fill 14 seats on the borough council.
One-third of the 36 seats will be up for election along with those of Francis Guidera (Con, Tilgate), who resigned in March, and Geraint Thomas (Lab, Ifield), who died in November 2019.
Crawley s local elections take place on Thursday, May 6
Due to the pandemic, no by-election was able to be held for control of Mr Thomas’ seat before now.
The council has been in no overall control since former Labour councillors Karen Sudan and Rory Fiveash quit the Party to become Independents.
