LOUTH SOUTH (LAB HOLD):
JOHN HOUGH (LAB) 1002:
"I'm very grateful to the people in Louth who have supported me and I'm very pleased to be re-elected. Compared to four years ago, we have gone from four seats to 12 and we will be trying to use that increased support for the plans we set out before the election in terms of maintaining public services and improving transport. The result does send out a message that the Tories can't continue to run Lincolnshire in the way they have done in the past."
Jill Makinson-Sanders (Ind) 651

LOUTH WOLDS (CON HOLD):
HUGO MARFLEET (CON) 1193:
"It is an honour to be voted back in. I love the work and I love representing people so I thank all those that came out to vote for me. From a local Conservative point of view we are feeling the pain of what is going on outside the county, but we have still got some good councillors and we will continue to do the best for Lincolnshire."
Brian Burnett (Linc Ind) 586

MABLETHORPE (UKIP GAIN):
ANNE REYNOLDS (UKIP) 802:
"I am delighted. The people of Mablethorpe have sent out a very clear message to the main parties that they have had enough. It was an excellent result for UKIP and I think this is just the start. Unlike some of the other parties, UKIP councillors do not have a whip. Our policies on a local level are the same as any other independent councillor in that we will work in the best interests of the local people."

MARKET RASEN WOLDS (CON HOLD):
BURT KEIMACH (CON) 573:
"Personally I am very pleased with the result, but I am a bit disappointed that some of our key players on the county council lost their seats as they are going to be very hard to replace. I feel that UKIP are very much a protest party. I think it is up to them to prove themselves to be rational and develop good policies and I hope they will prove to be important colleagues."
Mike Ranby (UKIP) 534
Guy Grainger (Lib Dem) 355

Geoff Wiseman (Ind) 149
Turnout: 27 per cent
NORTH WOLDS (CON HOLD):
TONY TURNER (CON) 1053:
"I'm personally delighted to be re-elected but very disappointed by the fact that only 28 per cent of voters turned out. As Conservatives we are very disappointed with the result overall, although all the sitting members for West Lindsey have been returned. UKIP have been our biggest problem because they have nothing to lose but they talked about national things which we have no control over."
Jane Ranby (UKIP) 504
Janet Tierney (Lab) 279
