BackgroundBefore the election the Conservatives were the largest party on the council with 29 of the 58 seats.[3] The Liberal Democrats had 23 seats, Labour had 4 seats, the Green party had 1 seat and there was 1 independent.[3] Since the last election in 2011 Labour had gained a seat in Batchwood from the Liberal Democrats at a by-election in January 2012.[4] 19 seats were contested in 2012 with both the Conservative and Labour parties having a full 19 candidates, the Liberal Democrats had 18 and the Greens had 17.[5] There were 3 independent candidates as well, the sitting independent councillor Tony Swendell in Redbourn, the former Labour group leader Maurice MacMillan in London Colney, who had left the party a few years before over the imposition of an all-women shortlist, and Conservative councillor John Chambers, who was standing in Harpenden North as an independent after having been deselected by the Conservatives.[5] Of the 19 seats the Conservatives were defending 9, the Liberal Democrats 8 and both the Green party and an independent were defending 1 seat.[6] Election resultThe Labour party gained 4 seats to have 8 councillors after taking 3 seats from the Liberal Democrats and 1 seat from the Conservatives.[7] The Conservatives remained the largest party, while the Liberal Democrats dropped to 19 seats and both the Green party and independent Tony Swendell held the seats they had been defending.[7] {{Election Summary Begin|title = St Albans local election result 2012[2][8]}}{{Election Summary Party||party = Conservative Party (UK) |seats = 8 |gain = 1
