Millions Across Europe Cast Their Votes in Final Day of EU Elections

The European Union is holding its first election since Britain's departure from the EU, with 720 lawmakers to be elected to the world's only directly elected transnational parliament. The election is being closely watched as opinion polls forecast significant gains for far-right and anti-establishment parties. According to polls, Europe's main centre-right grouping is expected to come top across the EU, with France's National Rally, Italy's Brothers of Italy, and Austria's Freedom Party leading in the polls.
