Elections are taking place today to select a candidate for Ely’s North Ward.
Polling stations are open until 10pm at three locations.
The four candidates battling it out for the parish council role are Mark Cooney (Spotted in Ely), Richard Morgan (no description at time of standing), Edward Carlsson Browne (Labour Party), and John Yates (Independent).
