Samantha Dixon has been elected the new MP for the seat - with an increased majority.
It's the worst result in the constituency for the Conservatives in nearly two centuries.
The by-election was triggered by the resignation of Labour MP Christian Matheson who was accused of serious sexual misconduct.
Samantha Dixon says voters have sent a clear message to the government.
