The Barnstaple Town Council by-election held on 14th September resulted in the Liberal Democrats holding the seat. Lib Dems welcome Julian Williams as a representative of Central Ward.
Results were
Julian Williams | Liberal Democrat | 305 (Elected) |
Robbie Mack | Green | 247 |
Laurence Overend | Labour | 144 |
Commenting on the result, Barnstaple County and District Councillor Brian Greenstreet said
"Compared to the previous Central Ward by election on June 8th Labour fell from second place to third place so the Labour advance in North Devon has been blunted."
