Well that's a wrap everyone. Thanks for stopping by and following the progress today.
The interior ministry put the final voter turnout at 41.04 percent today, around eight percent lower than in 2018. It remains to be seen how that will translate into seats - rumours are that there has already been one breakthrough for an independent in the south.
Feel free to dive into this wrap of all today's events, courtesy of reporters from around the country. Thanks for again for reading and goodnight.
Hope and apathy as Lebanese vote in first polls since economic meltdown
