It was announced by Glasgow City Council on Thursday 10 May 2012 that Box 139, containing approximately 385 papers, was not counted in the vote despite them being registered and scanned. Permission was obtained from Glasgow Sheriff Court to examine the ballots and rerun the calculation. The two highest scoring candidates were mathematically assured of their place, however the third candidate, Liam Hainey, could have had his election overturned.[ 10] After the ballots were rescanned on 16 May 2012 and the result recalculated, he retained his seat.[ 11]
On 14 May 2015, Green counsellor Liam Hainey resigned his seat for family and health reasons.[ 12] A by-election was held on 6 August 2015 and was won by the SNP's Anna Richardson.
