THE election results for Sutton Parish Council were officially declared on Friday morning.

Sutton residents cast their votes throughout Thursday, with 594 ballots – about 19.44 per cent of the parish – counted.

Eleven councillors were elected to take a seat on the council, which was plunged into chaos back in May after it was left with insufficient numbers and had to suspend business.
