TOMORROW will see Somerset head to the polls for the 2024 general election.
Voters are being asked to choose their MP for the next parliament, with polls open from 7am until 10pm.
It will be the first general election where anyone casting a vote will be required to show photographic ID before heading to the booth – so be sure to have yours with you.
As we prepare to poll, we thought we’d have a last look at county constituencies in our patch and give the latest polling predictions from forecaster Electoral Calculus, as well as the latest available odds from bet365…
