-
Elections for North Tyneside's directly elected mayor took place on 5 May 2005 on the same day as the United Kingdom General Election.
John Harrison, of the Labour Party, won. Many expected the former mayor, Linda Arkley of the Conservative Party to win[citation needed]. The election uses the Supplementary Vote system, and Arkley received the largest number of first-choice votes. However, after the second preference votes were counted, Harrison was elected with a 1,002 vote advantage.
