THE nation goes to the polls on Thursday - and we’ll bring you live, interactive coverage of what looks set to be a historic night on this website.

Our political editors, Graham Dines and Paul Geater, will join our election night reporting team to bring you updates, rumours and news from all the local counts as well as the latest national picture.

Join us from 9pm on Thursday night and get involved – ask questions, start debate and let us know what you think as the votes are counted and results start coming in.

We’ll be with you all night and well into Friday morning as history is made – for the best live coverage and local results first, make sure you log on to this site!
