A closely fought election has seen Labour come out on top in the race for control of Nottinghamshire County Council by just one seat.
In the end Labour won 34 seats compared to Conservatives who received 21.
This has meant that Labour in total gained 18 whilst Tories lost 14.
It all came down to see who would take control of Anold South and North in Gedling.
Labour North candidate Michael Payne was the last seat to be gained.
He said: "I am really very happy.
"We have sent a clear message to Kay Cutts. In Arnold and Carlton we won all eight seats which was clearly extremely important.
"We will now go on to stand up for the people that voted us in."
