The new mayor and police and crime commissioner are due to be revealed on Saturday.
Find out moreThey will represent about 2.9 million people across Birmingham, Coventry, Wolverhampton, Sandwell, Dudley, Solihull and WalsallToday's results also include the outcome of Warwickshire's PCC electionWe’ve put together a guide where you can find out everything you need to know about each of the six mayoral candidates.West Midlands Mayor Andy Street wanted the powers of Mayor and PCC combined after these elections, a stance backed by the home office.
Mr Seccombe said he expected to win in North Warwickshire. But he sounded nervous about the overall result given there were only 100 votes between him and Labour's candidate. Conservative candidate Philip Seccombe has received 3,766 votes in North Warwickshire - ahead of Labour rival Sarah Feeney on 3,651 and Liberal Democrat Richard Dickson on 1,013.It's worth noting there is a different electoral system in play this time around. The 2024 election will be the first held under the first-past-the-post method, similar to Westminster elections.
In 2021, Andy Street was elected under the supplementary method which saw voters’ second choices taken into account for the strongest two candidates . The truth is that we know from polling in Teesside and the West Midlands that many voters were willing to vote for a Tory mayor but don't back the party nationally.
Among the results yesterday, those on Nuneaton and Bedworth Borough Council are among the more interesting. That's when the Press Association estimates the results of the West Midlands and Warwickshire PCC elections will be announced.But the mayoral vote is being counted at a number of different locations and we expect results from those counts to start to come in from midday.Of course a lot of things could influence that and yesterday we saw turnout in the two PCC elections down significantly on 2021.
