Held by Labour's Catherine West until parliament dissolved last month, the seat is being contested by a number of eager challengers including local Lib Dem councillor Dawn Barnes and Tory Edward McGuinness.
The other candidates are the Green Party's Jarelle Francis, the Brexit Party's Daniel Corrigan, Helen Spiby-Vann of the Christian People's Alliance and independent candidate Salah El-Din Wakie.

This seems a good time to remind everyone what happened:
Catherine West (LAB) retained her Hornsey and Wood Green seat with 35,126 votes.
Dawn Barnes (LIB DEM) was second on 15,884 and Ed McGuinness (CON) came third with 6,829.
Jarelle Francis from the Green Party was next, he earned 2,192 votes.
Which leaves Daniel Corrigan picking up 763 Brexit Party votes, Christian People's Alliance candidate Helen Spiby-Vann getting 211 and independent Salah Wakie with 100 exactly.
Not a huge amount of change since 2017, though Dawn Barnes did narrow Catherine West's majority.
Meanwhile in Tottenham, more than 35,000 votes for Labour's David Lammy kept him in a very safe seat indeed.
More colour and reaction to the general election will be on the Ham&High website this morning. Stay tuned.
