UK goes to crucial Parliamentary election today
Prime Minister David Cameron's Conservatives and Ed Miliband's opposition Labour Party have been neck and neck in opinion polls for months, which indicates outright majority for neither of them.
The Parliament has 650 seats.
The election is significant since it could yield weak government, push the country towards a vote on EU membership and give rise to the desire for secession of Scotland.
"This race is going to be the closest we have ever seen," Miliband told supporters in Pendle, in northern England, on the eve of the vote. "It is going to go down to the wire."
Cameron said only his Conservatives could deliver strong, stable government: "All other options will end in chaos."
