Voters are heading to the polls for the European Parliamentary Elections. Seventy-three members, known as Members European Parliament, will be elected in nine constituencies in England, and one each in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Each region has a different number of representatives based on its population, ranging from three MEP’s in the North East and Northern Ireland to 10 MEP’s in South East. The Netherlands is also voting today while voting in other EU nations will take place at various times over the next three days.
The results will be announced once all EU nations have voted, with the voting process expected to be completed on Sunday.
