Those who were temporarily away from their ordinary address (for example, away working, on holiday, in student accommodation or in hospital) were also entitled to vote in the local elections,[2] although those who had moved abroad and registered as overseas electors cannot vote in the local elections.

It is possible to register to vote at more than one address (such as a university student who had a term-time address and lives at home during holidays) at the discretion of the local Electoral Register Office, but it remains an offence to vote more than once in the same local government election.

UKIP lost all its seats on the council, whilst the Greens gained a second councillor.

The sole remaining independent lost re-election, although the People Against Bureaucracy Group held on to their seat.

A by-election was held on Thursday 3 May 2019 for the Churchdown Division due to the death of County Councillor Jack Williams.
