Sensational win in Baughurst: Conservatives lose majority on Basingstoke & Deane
Congratulations to Michael Bound, his agent Jo Slimin and the team who fought and won the Baughurst by-election. There was a 21.5% swing from the Conservatives to the Lib Dems - giving Michael a majority of 60 - and meaning that the Conservatives no longer have a majority on Basingstoke & Deane Borough Council! A great result - and particularly encouraging given recent by-election results in Romsey, Wickham and Whitchurch!
| Michael Bound - Liberal Democrats | 428 | 53.8% | +21.5% |
| Conservatives | 368 | 46.2% | -21.5% |
