Election day is upon us, and polling stations across Wales have been welcoming voters to decide who will form the next Welsh Government. Polling stations are open until 10pm but unlike previous years, counting and declarations will take place the following day due to rules designed to ensure the safety for those working to count and verify ballots. If you re heading out to vote don t forget to take a mask and your own pen or pencil. We ll be bringing you all the coverage of the counts and the results tomorrow.
