Voters went to the polls in a series of elections across the UK on what has been dubbed “Super Thursday”.
Elections took place for the Scottish Parliament, National Assembly of Wales, the Northern Ireland Assembly and for 124 councils in England.
Mayors will be elected in London, Bristol, Liverpool and Salford, with UK parliamentary by-elections held in Ogmore and Sheffield Brightside.
Police and crime commissioners are also being elected in England and Wales.
Problems were reported in Barnet, North London, where the council apologised after some people were unable to vote on Thursday morning.
The Electoral Commission said some polling stations did not have the correct lists of people’s names. Later in the morning, the council said the correct registers had been delivered and those denied a vote should come back.
