In the Llanelli area, Communist Party candidates contested a number of seats but polled a low vote in all cases.

[1] A greater number of contests took place in 1934 in Carmarthenshire than at any time since the First World War.

The most striking result was the defeat of the Council chairman, David Harry, in the Berwick ward.

In Ward Two, Percy Evans, returned at a by-election in 1931 following a split Independent vote, but now standing for the ILP, was defeated.
