East Arnhem Regional Council is composed of 14 councillors elected across six multi-member wards. Four wards (Anindilyakwa, Birr Rawarrang, Gumurr Gattjirrk and Gumurr Miyarrka) elect two councillors each, while two wards (Gumurr Marthakal and Gumurr Miwatj) elect three councillors each.[24]

All candidates in Birr Rawarrang, Gumurr Marthakal and Gumurr Miwatj were elected unopposed, as the number of candidates did not exceed the number of vacancies.[25]

Voter turnout in Gumurr Gattjirrk Ward was 10.6%, making it the lowest turnout for any ward in the NT in 2021.[2] The NTEC reported that voter participation was affected by several Indigenous men's ceremonies, and "as many as 40% of community members in Milingimbi were away and the outstation of Raymangirr was deserted".[25]
