Abstract: Local Council elections were held on Saturday 12 March 2005. Voting took place in 21 localities in Malta and Gozo. The Malta Labour Party (MLP), the party in opposition, won the elections with 53.2% of the votes. The Nationalist Party (NP) in Government got 44.1%. Overall, when compared to the previous year’s election, PN lost ground to MLP. The turnout of voters was about 67%. In previous years, the mayor used to be elected through a vote from councillors. However, for the first time, in 2005 the elected mayor was the elected councillor with the majority of votes from the party which obtained the absolute majority of councilors in the electoral locality.
