UK Election: Final hour of voting ahead of UK General Election count

Voting is continuing in the final hour of this year’s General Election. Across Northern Ireland voters are braving a cold and wet day to travel to more than 1,000 polling stations to cast their ballots to decide 18 constituency races.

Early reports suggest polling stations have been busy across the day and particularly in the final hours before the polls close at 10pm. At the last General Election in 2017, Northern Ireland saw a 65% turnout.
