Former health minister Andy Kerr launches his campaign this morning and will face competition from finance spokesman Iain Gray and acting leader Cathy Jamieson.
Cathcart MSP Charlie Gordon announced that he has pulled out of the contest after failing to secure the six nominations required to stand.
The vacant deputy leadership post will be contested between Bill Butler and Johann Lamont.
