The 1960 Labour Party deputy leadership election took place in November 1960, after the death of sitting deputy leader Aneurin Bevan.




Candidates


George Brown, former Minister of Works, Member of Parliament (MP) for Belper
James Callaghan, former Parliamentary and Financial Secretary to the Admiralty, MP for Cardiff South East
Frederick Lee, former Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Labour and National Service, MP for Newton
The ballot coincided with a leadership election, where leader Hugh Gaitskell saw off left-wing challenger Harold Wilson. In the deputy leadership election, Brown and Callaghan both supported Gaitskell, while Lee was aligned with the left wing of the party.




Results



As a result of the first round, Callaghan was eliminated. The remaining two candidates faced each other in a second round.
