Llangeinor was formerly also an electoral ward for Bridgend County Borough Council, from 1995 electing one county councillor. From 1995 to 2017, it was represented by the Labour Party . From 2004 to 2017, Labour county councillor, Marlene Thomas, represented the ward. In 2012, Thomas was elected Mayor of Bridgend County Borough and served until 2013. Since 2017, the Llangeinor ward has been represented by Cllr. Roz Stirman, who was elected as an independent councillor, but later defected to Plaid Cymru. A 2019 review of electoral wards in the borough by the Boundary Commission for Wales proposed merging Llangeinor with the southern part of the Pontycymmer ward to form a new ward called Lower Garw.
