Elections to Gedling Borough Council in Nottinghamshire were held on 2 May 2019, the same day as the other local government elections in England and Northern Ireland. The election used the nineteen wards created as a result of boundary commission recommendations formulated for the 2015 contest, with each division electing between one and three Councillors using the first-past-the-post electoral system. A total of 41 representatives were elected.
After the 2015 election, a Labour majority administration of 25 was formed. In 2019, Labour gained four seats, increasing their numbers to 29, eight clear of the Council's majority threshold.[1] [2]
