Millions of voters in the U.K. have cast their ballots to elect 650 members to the House of Commons or lower house or parliament.
Each of the 650 constituencies elects one member of parliament, and the winning party needs at least 326 seats for a majority.
Labour is anticipated to challenge the Conservatives, who have governed since 2010, with recent polls indicating a significant lead for Labour.
Reform U.K. has also gained ground, adding intrigue to the electoral landscape.
The center-right Conservatives had secured victories in the last three general elections—2015, 2017, and 2019.
The party now finds itself trailing significantly.
