Kilmarnock with NHS worker Kevin McGregor delivering a creditable second place for Scottish Labour and Scottish Conservative Brian Whittle coming third.Mr Coffey's share of the vote was slightly down in percentage terms on 2016 but after pulling in more than half the vote, there was no denying the thumping nature of his victory.He told Ayrshire Live: "It's an absolute privilege and an honour to get more than 50 per cent of the vote in an election. You've got to be pleased with that."It's a very humbling experience to be honest with you.
