Glasgow is one of the eight electoral regions of the Scottish Parliament. Under the additional-member electoral system used for elections to the Scottish Parliament, eight of the parliament's 73 first past the post constituencies are sub-divisions of the region, which also elects seven of the 56 additional-member Members of the Scottish Parliament (MSPs). The region thus elects a total of 15 MSPs. Prior to the Second periodic review of Scottish Parliament boundaries in 2025 the region consisted of nine constituencies, and thus elected 16 MSPs in total.
