An issue with the electronic version of the electoral roll at voting places has been fixed, the Electoral Commission says.
It crashed earlier this morning, causing some delays for people casting a special vote at some of the busiest voting places.
It is used to look up people who don't have their EasyVote card or don't know which electorate they are in, the commission said.
The Electoral Commission also said there have been queues at some voting places due to high demand.
Additional staff have been brought in to support the busiest voting places. It said anyone in line at a voting place at 7pm will be able to vote.
More than 2300 voting places are open until 7pm.
