Scottish Parliament election results

The SNP has been denied an overall majority by just one seat, following the allocation of regional seats on 8 May.

The party managed to win 64 of the 65 needed for a majority, however a pro-independence majority was achieved as the Scottish Greens were awarded eight regional seats.

The overall turnout across Scotland was the highest ever in a Scottish Parliament election, with tactical voting appearing to have taken place in some target seats in order to keep the SNP from winning a majority.

All 129 seats have been declared.
