Voters in Britain were casting their ballots on Thursday in the country’s most unpredictable national election in more than two decades.
British Prime Minister David Cameron is facing off against Ed Miliband, leader of the center-left Labour Party, and pollsters say the outcome of the vote is too close to call. Opinion polls suggest that neither party is likely to win a majority of seats as voters defect to newly popular fringe parties.
With no clear winner expected, Friday could kick off days of political negotiations with smaller parties that would determine the country’s next leader.
The stakes are high: If Mr. Cameron’s center-right Conservative Party wins, the party will deliver a referendum on whether the U.K. should leave the European Union. Alternatively, a Labour government would likely rely on support from the Scottish National Party, which could use its leverage to argue for greater autonomy for Scotland.
The vote caps five weeks of intense campaigning, during which neither party was able to move the dial on opinion polls. The campaign has been at times bare knuckles, with senior figures in both parties launching sometimes personal attacks on the candidates.
Lets see what happens and who emerges winner.
