Voters are going to the polls in the Batley and Spen by-election on Thursday after an extremely bitter by-election campaign.
Polling booths opened at 07:00 BST and will remain open for people to cast their ballot until 22:00 BST.
There are 16 candidates standing in the election which was triggered when former Labour MP Tracy Brabin became West Yorkshire’s first elected mayor.
Votes will be counted in nearby Huddersfield and a result is expected on Friday morning.
This comes as it is thought Angela Rayner is set to launch a coup with support of the left of the party after abysmal results and performances by the centrist Starmer.
