Police and Crime Commissioner Election 2024

Police and Crime Commissioner Election for the Durham Police Area - Thursday 2 May 2024

On Thursday 2 May 2024, voters across the Borough went to the polls to elect a Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) for the Durham Police area, which includes Darlington, for the next four years.

The Declaration of Result of Poll was made by the Police Area Returning Officer (PARO), who was based in Durham.

Joy Allen was duly elected as Police and Crime Commissioner for the Durham Police Area (which includes the Darlington area).

PCC's may stand for a political party, however, they are expected to represent all the people in their area impartially and are required to swear an 'Oath of Impartiality' before taking office.

The election was co-ordinated across County Durham by the Police Area Returning Officer (PARO), who is based at Durham County Council website, however local arrangements for Darlington were delegated to the local Election Team.
