An election to Cambridgeshire County Council took place on 5 May 2005 as part of the 2005 United Kingdom local elections. The election took place on the same day as the 2005 United Kingdom General Election. 69 councillors were elected from 60 electoral divisions, which returned either one or two county councillors each by first-past-the-post voting. New electoral division boundaries were brought in for this election, increasing the number of seats from the 59 seats at the 2001 Cambridgeshire County Council election. The Conservative Party retained their majority on the council, while the Labour Party lost all their rural councillors with their representation limited to the city of Cambridge.

Election of Leader of the Council

John Walters the leader of the conservative group was duly elected leader of the council and formed a conservative administration.

Walters would retire as leader in May 2007[4] to be succeeded by Shona Johnston (Willingham) who had been the Cabinet Member for Children and Young People’s Services. Dennis Pegram (St Ives) was elected as deputy leader. However Johnstone was forced to resign after less than 6 months after admitting making an "inappropriate" phone call to a chief executive candidate.[5] Walters would return as leader until May 2008 when Jill Tuck (Waldersey) replaced him with Lawrence McGuire (Norman Cross) as her deputy.
