It was also only the second time in 26 years that Northern Ireland held a standalone council election - normally they are run alongside polls for Stormont or Westminster., the same as that used in Northern Ireland Assembly elections. People ranked candidates in numerical preference, marking their ballot 1,2,3 and so on for as many or as few preferences as they want.To find out who stood in your area, type your postcode into the bar below.
