Composition of Corporation after the election
An election to the Aberdeen Corporation was held on 5 November 1907, alongside municipal elections across Scotland. 11 of the corporation's 34 seats were up for election, although only 2 were contested.
This election saw the first municipal contests in Aberdeen with a candidate supported by the Aberdeen Labour Representation Committee (LRC). While unaffiliated with the national body that had formed in 1900, this local group was modeled and named the same. The LRC consisted of the Aberdeen United Trades Council, the local branches of the Social Democratic Federation and the Independent Labour Party, and the Working Women's Political Association, a local women's suffrage group which later folded into a branch of the Women's Social and Political Union. The group was originally formed to contest the 1907 Aberdeen South by-election.[1]
