Ultimate candidate guide: Isle of Wight 2026 local election

Last updated:

All of the Isle of Wight 2026 local election candidates information in one place.

OnTheWight has built this so you can read what each candidate is saying (don’t worry, they’ve been limited to 100 words). It’s a single page with all of the information on it, so you can find out who is running in your ward and elsewhere – giving Islanders an overview to the whole election process.

Getting around quickly
Not only can you jump directly to your ward (using the left hand list), but you can choose to view all of the candidates from each of the parties, or search for a specific candidate’s name.

Don’t forget, you can find out which ward you’re in just by entering your postcode here. Be aware that occasionally a ward boundary sits in the middle of a road, so it may give you the wrong ward.

We hope you find it helpful.
