WELCOME to our live coverage of the Worcester City Council elections.
Below, and on our homepage, you will find a panel of real-time comments from WN staff and readers, posted as the evening progresses.
You can add your own thoughts at any time by typing in to the comment box or tweeting using the hashtag #WNelections.
We're now at the Guildhall for the count and as the results are announced we’ll be updating this page with the winners.
Comments: Our rules
We want our comments to be a lively and valuable part of our community - a place where readers can debate and engage with the most important local issues. The ability to comment on our stories is a privilege, not a right, however, and that privilege may be withdrawn if it is abused or misused.
Please report any comments that break our rules.
