1861 Liverpool Town Council election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

1861 Liverpool Town Council election
← 1860 November 1, 1861 (1861-11-01) 1862 →
16 seats were up for election: one seat for each of the 16 wards
33 (incl. Aldermen) seats needed for a majority

Elections to Liverpool Town Council were held on Friday 1 November 1861. One third of the council seats were up for election, the term of office of each councillor being three years, and nine of the 16 wards were uncontested. After the election, the composition of the council was:

Party Councillors   ±   Aldermen Total
Conservative ?? ?? ?? ??
Liberal ?? ?? ?? ??

Election result

Because of the large number of uncontested seats, these statistics should be taken in that context.

The discrepancy between the final results given in the Council Minute Book and the 4 o'clock final figures as reported in the Liverpool Mercury should perhaps be attributed to errors in the newspaper report.
