| 释义 |
The Leeds municipal elections were held on 12 May 1960, with one third of the council set to be re-elected.[1] A large swing of 5.5%[2] to the Conservatives allowed them their first election victory since 1951 - having won the most votes in several elections since then, but never amounting to a majority of seats.[1] The Conservatives made their six gains from Labour in the wards of Beeston, Bramley, Harehills, Stanningley, Westfield, Woodhouse and Wortley, halving Labour's majority of councillors from 24 to 12.[1][2] Elsewhere, the Liberals managed a post-war first of beating Labour to second place in Allerton and Far Headingley, and the first Independent candidate standing since the war, Dennis Peddar, made negligible impact in Westfield.[1] Turnout fell sharply for this election - by nearly a quarter from the previous year - to a new low of 27.5%.[2] Election result{{Election Summary Begin|title = Leeds Local Election Result 1960}}{{Election Summary Party||party = Conservative Party (UK) |seats = 15 |gain = 6 |loss = 0 |net = +6 |seats % = 53.6 |votes % = 54.3 |votes = 52,399 |plus/minus = +5.3% }}{{Election Summary Party| |party = Labour Party (UK) |seats = 13 |gain = 0 |loss = 6 |net = -6 |seats % = 46.4 |votes % = 41.0 |votes = 39,553 |plus/minus = -5.5% }}{{Election Summary Party| |party = Liberal Party (UK) |seats = 0 |gain = 0 |loss = 0 |net = 0 |seats % = 0.0 |votes % = 4.2 |votes = 4,029 |plus/minus = +0.2% }}{{Election Summary Party| |party = Communist Party of Great Britain |seats = 0 |gain = 0 |loss = 0 |net = 0 |seats % = 0.0 |votes % = 0.5 |votes = 500 |plus/minus = +0.0% }}{{Election Summary Party| |party = Independent (politician) |seats = 0 |gain = 0 |loss = 0 |net = 0 |seats % = 0.0 |votes % = 0.1 |votes = 73 |plus/minus = +0.1% }}{{Election box end}} The result had the following consequences for the total number of seats on the council after the elections:[2]
