Ward results

All wards returned Labour councillors except for Wards 27 (Largs South) and Ward 28 (Largs Central & Cumbrae), which returned a Conservative and SNP councillor respectively.[1]

Ward 14 (Stevenston North) didn't hold an election due to the death of a candidate. The by-election was held at a later date, with a Labour Councillor being returned. The results from that ward are excluded from the breakdown above.[1]
