Voters have been going to the polls in the Local and European Elections since 7am.
There's also a referendum in relation to divorce, and a plebiscite on directly elected mayors in Cork, Limerick and Waterford
Turnout in Cork has been described as slow and steady this lunchtime but most polling stations expect to see a rush around teatime
Cork City Council has already advised voters of the possibility of queues at some polling stations at peak voting times due to the 4 polls taking place and the record number of candidates involved
As a result it's expected the sorting of votes at Nemo, which will begin early tomorrow morning, may take a little longer and counting is not expected to begin at City Hall until early evening
