Voters across the UK will head to the polls tomorrow on what has been dubbed “Super Thursday”. There is a bumper crop of elections this time, as many were postponed from last May because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Every adult in England, Scotland and Wales will be able to cast at least one vote, which is rare outside a general election. Estimated declaration times have always come with a warning they could be taken only as a rough guide and were subject to change in the light of new information. However, in the case of the May 2021 elections, they have been very difficult to produce because of the circumstances of the pandemic, as authorities are unsure how long it will take to count votes while keeping to social distancing requirements.
