The 2011 Indianapolis City–County Council elections took place on November 8, 2011. All 29 seats were up for re-election, 25 districts and 4 at-large seats, on the Indianapolis City–County Council. Prior to the elections Republicans held a 15–13–1 seat majority. Following the elections Democrats gained control of the council with a 16–13 majority.[1][2] This marked the first time in Indianapolis history that a Republican mayor would lead with a Democratic council.[3]
