The results marked a dramatic change for the previously Conservative-led county authority.
Reform UK will now control the council with a 40 members, whle the Tories will form the main opposition with 17 seats.
Prior to this election, Broxtowe was represented at county level by three Conservatives, four Independents, one Labour councillor and one Reform.
The area has seen some political shift since January, when 18 Labour councillors at Broxtowe Council defected to form the new independent Broxtowe Alliance group.
They had candidates running for six of the nine county council seats.
But in a 'seismic shift' of voting choices, the Broxtowe public turned to Reform, which now has six county councillors, one Labour councillor, one Broxtowe Independent councillor and one Broxtowe Alliance councillor on the authority.
Reform’s James Walker-Gurley took the Eastwood seat with 1,326 votes, beating Broxtowe Council leader Milan Radulovic (Brox All) in to second place on 898.
In Nuthall & Kimberley, James Rawson won the seat for Reform with 1,253 votes, ousting Tory Philip Owen who had held the seat for 20 years, but only polled 1,086 votes to finish second.
Speaking to the Local Democracy Reporting Service, Mr Owen said: “I’m upset about but I’m afraid that’s politics and you have to live with that.
"It’s democracy in process and the people have had their say.”
Reform also won the Greasley & Brinsley seat as Glyn Pepper polled 1,679 votes for a majority of almost 1,000.
Elsewhere, one of several big surprises across the county came in the Beeston Central & Rylands division where Labour group leader Kate Foale was ousted by Teresa Cullen of the Broxtowe Alliance, who polled 1,035 votes to Foale's 1,008.
John Doddy and Jan Goold won the two Stapleford and Broxtowe Central seats, polling 2,372 and 2,059 votes respectively.
Coun Doddy called the win a ‘landslide’ and said: “This is a seismic shift in politics, I’ve never seen anything like it.
“The most hopeless place to be as a politician is in the opposition – nobody listens to you.
"I’m looking forward to the opportunity of looking after and running County Hall for the people of Nottinghamshire.”
Independent Steve Carr won the Bramcote and Beeston North seat, polling 2,104 votes to see off the Reform challenge.
But while delighted to win his seat, he expressed his fears over a Reform-led future for the council.
He said: “It looks as though the council is going to be run by a party that’s never run a council before – that is a big concern for me.”
Another long-standing Tory councillor to lose his seat was Richard Jackson who, after 23 years on the council, was unshipped in Toton, Chilwell and Attenborough as Labour’s Helen Faccio took one of the division’s seats with 1,684 votes and Reform’s Richard Lowe the other with 1,807.
Mr Jackson said: “There’s been a big national swing.
"I came here thinking this might have been on the cards – 23 years on and time to move on and do something different.”
