Yahoo News Latest mayor election results map to keep up to date as votes are counted and 4 results already in
A new map for the mayoral elections 2024 shows the results as they happen across the country. Londoners are waiting in anticipation today to find out whether Sadiq Khan or Susan Hall will win the ballot.
Londoners took to their polling stations on Thursday May 2 but the race is said to be 'very close' as this year's turnout has been revealed to be lower than in 2021. Votes will be counted and results declared today (May 4).
Londoners voted for their mayor and London Assembly Members on Thursday, May 2. But London Elects has this afternoon released the turnout figure after verification of the number of ballot papers was carried out today. You can use our handy mao below to keep up to date with the latest results as they come in.
So far, four mayoral election results have already been announced. East Midlands, North East and York and North Yorkshire have been held by Labour. While Tees Valley have voted in a Conservative mayor.
MyLondon understands that Labour believes that tomorrow's result is going to be 'very close'. Mr Khan's team is also concerned about the less than 5 percentage point gap between Mr Khan and the then-Tory candidate, Shaun Bailey, in 2021.
In addition, the party's thinking is that voter ID regulations - which mean voters had to bring an acceptable form of documentation with them to polling stations or be turned away - makes it 'easier for Tories to win'. It is also understood that the mayor's team believes encouraging polling - which put Mr Khan between 10 and more than 20 percentage points ahead of his Conservative rival - were 'way out'.
