There will be no change to the SNP MPs across the north-east seeking re-election in June’s general election.
Former First Minister, Alex Salmond, will once again contest Gordon – which he won two years ago with 48% of the vote during the nationalists’ most successful-ever election campaign.
The party has further confirmed both sitting Aberdeen MPs, Kirsty Blackman in Aberdeen North and Callum McCaig in Aberdeen South, will seek another mandate from the voters.
In Aberdeenshire, Eilidh Whiteford and Stuart Donaldson will fight to retain their seats in Banff and Buchan and Aberdeenshire West and Kincardine respectively.
The SNP surged to victory in 2015 taking all but three constituencies in Scotland.
But a resurgent Conservative party, north of the border, is looking to make big gains across the country after painting themselves as the true party of those opposed to independence.
With some polls showing the Tories picking up over 30% of the Scottish vote, many north-east seats are now being considered key battlegrounds including Aberdeen South, Banff and Buchan and West Aberdeenshire and Kincardine.
But the SNP believes its record on local issues, such as securing rural broadband, and working to deliver the city region deal for Aberdeen and the AWPR will help deliver them victory.
Mr Donaldson said: “We’re a strong team which has stood up to the Tories at Westminster and stood up for the north-east – working hard for all our constituents in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire .
“Only a vote for the SNP can ensure that this region is properly served at Westminster for the next five years and protect families and businesses from the damage an emboldened Tory government is preparing to inflict upon Scotland.
“We can’t afford to return to the days when absentee politicians took the north-east for granted and didn’t bother to put in the hard graft in constituencies.
“Just a small snapshot of what we’ve achieved in under two years shows the breadth and depth of what we’ve achieved on local services and providing the only real opposition at Westminster.”
