Candidates

The 2026 Swindon Borough Council elections will be taking place on 7th May 2026.  Due to the boundary change, all 57 seats are up for election, and Labour are standing a candidate in each one.  We have been in administration since May 2023, turning the council around after 20 years of Conservative neglect, and we are asking residents to vote Labour to allow us to continue to build a better Swindon as the administration.

The following is a list alphabetically by ward (and then by first name), please do get in touch with your individual candidates or the Labour group of councillors for more information.
