Polling stations across Wales opened at 07:00 on Thursday for the Senedd election.
Members of the Senedd (MSs) are being elected across 16 constituencies using a new voting system as the number of politicians in Cardiff Bay increases from 60 to 96.
Six politicians will be elected to represent each constituency, divided according to the proportion of votes parties receive in the seat.
Polling stations will close at 22:00, with counting taking place during the day on Friday. Full coverage of the results will be broadcast across BBC Cymru online, television, and radio.

Unlike UK Parliament elections, you do not need to bring identification or your polling card with you to vote.
This is the second Senedd election in Wales allowing 16 and 17-year-olds to participate.
Another change in this election is that people will cast a single vote, either for a political party or an independent candidate.
In previous Senedd elections, there were two votes – one for a candidate and one for a political party.
Senedd elections are also taking place in Scotland on Thursday, alongside local elections and mayoral contests in some parts of England.
