Composition
Elections are held every four years, interspersed by three years of elections to the four district councils in the county.
| Party | Councillors | Change | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Conservative | 46 | +1 | |
| Liberal Democrat | 11 | -1 | |
Conservative councillors represent almost all of the county, both in terms of number of seats and geographic area. The one main area of exception is Aylesbury, which is predominantly represented by Liberal Democrats.

Famous quotes containing the word composition:
“The proposed Constitution ... is, in strictness, neither a national nor a federal constitution; but a composition of both.”
—James Madison (1751–1836)
“When I think of God, when I think of him as existent, and when I believe him to be existent, my idea of him neither increases nor diminishes. But as it is certain there is a great difference betwixt the simple conception of the existence of an object, and the belief of it, and as this difference lies not in the parts or composition of the idea which we conceive; it follows, that it must lie in the manner in which we conceive it.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“Modern Western thought will pass into history and be incorporated in it, will have its influence and its place, just as our body will pass into the composition of grass, of sheep, of cutlets, and of men. We do not like that kind of immortality, but what is to be done about it?”
—Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
