Polls open for general election across Yorkshire

Polling station across the region opened at 07:00 BST

Polling stations have opened across Yorkshire and the Humber for people to cast their vote in the general election.

Voting venues opened at 07:00 BST and will remain open until 22:00 BST.

Candidates are standing in 54 constituencies across Yorkshire and The Humber, with the first results expected in the early hours of Friday morning.

For the first time in a UK general election people are required to bring photo-ID with them to their polling station in order to vote.

A number of constituencies have seen boundary changes since the last general election in 2019.

That comes after a nationwide review which aims to ensure MPs represent a similar number of constituents.

You can use our lookup to find out which constituency you are in, who is standing as a candidate in your area and to which polling station you can go to vote.
