The 2025 Suffolk County Council election will take place on 1 May 2025 as part of the 2025 local elections in the United Kingdom.[1] All 70 councillors will be elected from electoral divisions across the county, which will return either one or two county councillors each, by first-past-the-post voting, for a four-year term of office.
This election will be first taken after the implementation of a review by Local Government Boundary Commission for England which will reduce the number of councillors from 75 to 70.[2]
Voters who live in divisions which elected two councillors are entitled to cast a maximum of two votes, while those living in divisions only electing one councillor are only entitled to cast one vote.
