Lib Dem vote grows and overtakes the Tories in Clydebank and Milngavie

The results for the Clydebank and Milngavie constituency has seen the Lib Dem vote share increase and overtake the Tories for the first time since 2003. The position looks very familiar to where the Lib Dems were in Strathkelvin and Bearsden in 2021 prior to the Lib Dems gaining it from the SNP this time round. The election night that saw the Scottish Liberal Democrats win in total 10 seats across Scotland a gain of 6 compared to 2021. 

It has been a long and hard campaign but a fun one too. Massive thank you to all the volunteers who throughout this campaign helped to support Ben. A wonderful team that helped deliver a growth in the Liberal Democrat vote share. The work continues though as the East Dunbartonshire Liberal Democrats continue to work all year round and if you wish to join our volunteer team you can sign up here.
