North Antrim is one of the DUP's safest seats, but our reporter Elaine Mitchell has been hearing it might be at risk.
The seat has been held by the Paisley family for more than 50 years.
But Sinn Féin candidate Philip McGuigan has suggested his party's unofficial tallies show TUV leader Jim Allister is outpolling the DUP.
The DUP still say it's all still to play for.
Personal attacks 'depressing and upsetting' - Buckleypublished at 03:33 5 July

Buckley says the defeat for the DUP in Lagan Valley is not just a question for the party, but for the wider unionist family.
He says he has worked with different unionist parties in the assembly, but he and his family have been the victims of personal attacks.
"It's depressing and upsetting," he adds.
Buckley says people are "hungry for unionism to work together more than ever before", and that while it was a fantastic campaign, the factors were beyond his control.
He finishes by wishing Alliance's Sorcha Eastwood well and hopes she will represent all the people of Northern Ireland at Westminster.

Buckley says "boundary changes" and "divided unionism" lost him the seat.
He says unionist parties need to reflect on this and learn from it.
"We have defeated ourselves tonight," he says.
"Unionism is continually wanting to throw stones at each other rather than looking at the broader vision."
It is the first time ever that Lagan Valley will not be represented by a unionist MP.

While bundles have appeared on desks, there is no sign of anything coming any time soon.
We can just about glimpse them from the barrier that we can’t pass.
Rumours are swirling that Carla Lockhart’s vote may not have held up as well as hoped for the DUP, but everyone is very reluctant to make any predictions.
There’s not much activity among the counters down that end of the room now…

BBC News NIThere’s no sign yet of Fermanagh and South Tyrone Sinn Féin candidate Pat Cullen at the count centre in Magherafelt.
It’s been neck and neck but according to some observers it now looks like she is polling ahead of the Ulster Unionist Party’s Diana Armstrong.
It may not be as close as it had seemed earlier in the evening.
One unionist source says the Sinn Féin majority could be more than 1,000.
Turnout in Fermanagh and South Tyrone is 65.97%

Ulster Unionist Party leader Doug Beattie says it is still very early in many counts, but his party is still in the hunt for seats.
He says moving Robin Swann to South Antrim was not a gamble, but a strategic move that may have just paid off.
Beattie will not be drawn on how many seats he believes his party will finish with by close of play, but says he is hoping for a good night ahead.

BBC News NI political correspondentThere were glum facesand some tears as Alliance watched its deputy leader all but concede defeat inNorth Down.
From what had been agrowing swell of support in recent years for the party, there will be somesoul-searching to do after the declaration is done and the party dusts itselfdown.
The party is takingheart that Lagan Valley looks more than promising and it's still to play for inBelfast East.
But as for North Down,it's getting ready to have an independent MP again after a five-year gap.
Alex Easton hadpreviously told me it would be the pinnacle of his career to go to Westminster.
Two questions remain -who will he co-opt to replace him as an MLA at Stormont, and will Alliance finda spot for Stephen Farry in the assembly?
