Scotland Vote Too Close to Call
Here’s some good news for those rooting for Scottish independence:
In spite of a massive fearmongering campaign by both Labour and Tories in the UK, Scots Independence Race Tightens Six Days Before Ballot.
Scotland’s nationalists drew closer to the Better Together campaign in the latest poll on independence before the referendum, making the run-in to the Sept. 18 vote too close to call.
The poll of 1,000 people for the Guardian newspaper yesterday put support for ‘yes’ on 49 percent and ‘no’ on 51 percent after excluding undecided voters. It is the fourth poll in a week to put the ‘yes’ side within the 3 percent error margin of victory. Only one of those has had the pro-independence side ahead.
