There’s speculation it's a low voter turnout in the UK, despite projections of a historic and dramatic election result.
Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's Conservative Party is expected to take up opposition for the first time in 14 years.
In the meantime, Keir Starmer's Labour could win the biggest majority since 1832.
Times Chief Political Correspondent Aubrey Allegretti told Mike Hosking they're wondering if voter turnout could be very low.
He says the opinion polls show record lows for the main two parties, so turnout could dip below 70%.
