Any signs of increased local radio coverage beyond 2pm tomorrow considering many counts aren't being done till tomorrow or Saturday.
Think they do. I think I remember listenning to Jim Naughtie co-hosting the 2014 European elections results on 5 Live which was a simulcast I think. Not sure if they do for general elections though.
EDIT
The 2017 general election had Jim Naughtie and Carolyn Quinn on Radio 4, and Steven Nolan and Emma Barnett on Radio 5 Live. So as I suspected, it looks like they do their own thing on general election night, but share on lesser occasions.
