Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English There was a by-election for the Glasgow Bridgeton constituency on Thursday 16 November 1961.

The Labour Party candidate, James Bennett managed to retain the seat for his party, with a majority of 6,995 votes.[1]

The by-election was significant, in that it was one of the first elections in which the Scottish National Party achieved a 19% share of the vote; only narrowly beaten by the Unionist candidate M.McNeill for second place.[2] Although this was not exceptional and did not receive much attention at the time, it was the forerunner of more significant serious success for the SNP later in the 1960s.
