The first ballot box is expected to be opened around 10:!5 pm, but results won’t come until the early hours of the morning.
The estimated time to declare Kirkcaldy and Glenrothes is between 2:00 am and 3:00am, with Dunfermline and North East Fife following by 4:30 am - but the results could easily come much later.
There is a huge media presence at the count - one of the biggest in many years in Fife.
