2025 Manx local elections

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2025 Manx Local Authority elections were held on 24 April 2025.[1] The elections were held in three local authorities (Castletown, Patrick and Peel) and two electoral wards of local authorities (Douglas South Ward and Ramsey South Ward).[2] Elected representatives will serve a term of four years.[3]

In all the other local authorities and wards, there were not enough candidates to require a contested election. In five electoral areas (Ballaugh parish commissioners; Douglas Central ward; Jurby parish commissioners; Port Erin village commissioners; Ramsey North ward), there were not enough candidates to fill the vacancies, and a by-election will be required to fill the remaining vacancies.

Background

Nominations of candidates closed on 26 March 2025.[4] Polling stations opened at 8am and closed at 8pm.[5]
