North Wales has delivered a major victory for Plaid Cymru as the first regional Senedd result in the north confirmed a dominant performance for the party in Bangor Conwy Mon.
Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth topped the poll as his party secured three of the six available seats in the constituency, underlining the party’s growing momentum in the race to become the largest group in the Senedd.
The confirmed results for Bangor Conwy Mon are:
Rhun ap Iorwerth (Plaid Cymru)
Helen Jenner (Reform UK)
Mair Rowlands (Plaid Cymru)
Elfed Williams (Plaid Cymru)
John Clark (Reform UK)
Janet Finch-Saunders (Conservatives)
Plaid Cymru secured 31,057 votes, comfortably ahead of Reform UK on 19,440.
The Conservatives polled 8,555 votes, while Labour suffered another damaging result with just 4,448 votes. The Green Party received 3,101 votes.
The result means Labour failed to win a single seat in the constituency, adding to mounting evidence of a collapse in support for the party across Wales.
For Plaid Cymru, the victory represents a hugely symbolic breakthrough in North Wales, while Reform UK’s strong second-place finish continues the party’s rapid rise in Welsh politics.
