Patricia Ferguson has been an MSP since 1999, a Deputy Presiding Officer in the 1999-2003 term, and in 2001 was returned as constituency MSP despite a minor fall in her share of the vote. Bob Doris was elected in 2007 as a Glasgow region MSP and was returned to Holyrood again via the list this time around. Liberal Democrat Sophie Bridger lost her deposit.
Notes: Given boundary changes since 2007, variations in votes and share between seats with different boundaries would be misleading. We use the Denver figures, essentially a calculation of the 2007 votes cast within 2011 boundaries. More information on this here.
