Holyrood elections: A look at Glasgow Cathcart and its candidates ONLY Nicola Sturgeon won a Glasgow seat at Holyrood with a larger majority than James Dornan five years ago. The SNP candidate picked up 9390 more votes than his nearest rival – Labour’s Soryia Siddique – as his party took all eight city constituencies. He announced plans to step down last year but reversed his decision in July, and will now seek to add to his ten years in the role. Aiming to replace him are Craig Carson, Euan Blockley and Joe McCauley. Carson, a primary school teacher, is Labour’s hope in Cathcart as the party tries to take back seats in the city.
