The counting of votes cast in Saturday's European Parliament elections continued overnight and is continuing all day today.

Former Labour Prime Minister Alfred Sant was the only candidate to be elected outright from the first count, easily surpassing the quota of 35,979.

The PN's Roberta Metsola is expected to be elected on the second count.

The first count results also show that Imperium Europa were a few hundred votes short of the votes won by Alternattiva.

In the Labour camp, Gozitan Clint Camilleri is a surprise fourth, behind Dr Sant, Miriam Dalli and Marlene Mizzi, heading incumbent Joseph Cuschieri, who started campaigning late.

Among the Nationalists, Roberta Metsola and David Casa are set for re-election. Should the PN win the third seat, the battle will be between Francis Zammit Dimech, Ray Bugeja and Therese Comodini Cachia.

The difference between the PL and the PN was of 33,677 in favour of the former.
