Polling stations close at 10pm but what time can results be expected?
While polling stations shut at 10pm, voters will be in for a bit a of a wait before finding out who will be representing them at parliament.

How long it takes for votes to be counted and winners declared can vary depending on constituency. Part of the difference in timings can be down to how far ballot boxes have to be transported – the population of some, like the Brighton constituencies, is concentrated, meaning ballot boxes don’t have travel too far. But other more rural constituencies, like Arundel & South Downs, cover a huge area, meaning some boxes have to be transported many miles.
