Turnout for the EU and local elections hit 35.6% in Catalonia by 2pm on Sunday.

The figure was three points higher than for the local elections four years ago and ten points higher than the last European elections, but six points lower than April's Spanish general election.

Voters in Catalonia have until 8pm local time to vote. EU citizens who registered to do so can also take part.
