Election 2017 - Blackpool South
The election count is underway at Blackpool Sports Centre after polling stations closed at 10pm.
Following the arrival of the ballot boxes, staff have opened each box and the first responsibility is to verify the voting papers.
Blackpool South is expected to be the first of the two seats in the resort to declare - probably between 3am and 4am.
Five candidates are battling to win the seat - Peter Anthony (Conservative), Bill Greene (Lib Dem), Gordon Marsden (Labour), Noel Matthews (UKIP) and John Warnock (Green Party).
