Glasgow residents went to the polls on Thursday to vote on who they want to represent them over the next five years, after an election campaign which saw campaigners clash over everything from bins and buses to libraries and grass cutting - and with every party claiming they offered the best future for the city.
With so much at stake it was a surprisingly quiet at many polling stations early in the day, as a steady trickle of voters headed out under grey skies to have their say.
Voters could enter polling stations across the city from 7am until they shut at 10pm and party activists were out in force to secure support for their candidates. And as with elsewhere in the country it was expected the postal vote would be higher than ever, after so many people registered during the pandemic.
