The starting gun for the Scottish Parliament elections was fired following the dissolution of Holyrood on March 22.
For all those standing at the May 5 poll, leafleting, hustings and street campaigning is now the order of the day.
The Scottish Parliament has 73 MSPs who are directly elected from single constituencies.
There are also 56 MSPs who are elected from eight multi-member Scottish regional areas.
The first meeting of the fourth Scottish Parliament will take place within a week of the election taking place, with the new MSPs being sworn in and a presiding officer being elected.
Keep abreast of all the news of the election via our Scottish politics website, our Facebook page or our election Twitter page.
