Map showing the results of the 2009 Norfolk County Council elections.

The Norfolk Council election took place on 4 June 2009, coinciding with local elections for all county councils in England.

The Conservatives were re-elected with an increased majority and, as in Suffolk and Kent, the Liberal Democrats replaced Labour as the main opposition party. The Conservatives increased their majority on the Council from 10 to a comfortable 36 seats. They held virtually all of their seats across the county, but lost three seats to the Liberal Democrats in North Norfolk.

The Liberal Democrats had performed well in the North Norfolk area through making a net gain of 1 against the Conservatives, and gaining Thetford West from Labour in Breckland, but lost seats to the Conservatives in King's Lynn & West Norfolk and South Norfolk as the latter swept the board. In Norwich the party also lost Thorpe Hamlet and Mancroft to the Greens, but gained Lakenham from Labour. Despite the party's flat-lining, they became the official opposition to the governing Conservative administration.

Labour, just as had been the case across the rest of the country, suffered heavy losses to all parties and especially to the Conservatives. They ceased holding a majority of the seats in Norwich and were completely eliminated in West Norfolk & King's Lynn. In Great Yarmouth, they retained Magdalen and thus avoided a complete wipe out in that district.

The Green party made great strides, particularly in Norwich where they won a majority of seats, which built upon their successes in City elections over the preceding years. They also pushed Labour into fourth place across the county in terms of seats, but not share of vote.

The United Kingdom Independence Party stood candidates in selected seats, winning one in Great Yarmouth and gaining second places elsewhere.

Other parties and independent candidates stood without winning seats and making little impact.
