Scottish Copycats?

However, since Billy Connolly hasn't committed, I may wait to see who won to see whose side I'm on.

The vote has closed. 97% of the population of Scotland registered to vote...can you believe that! I hope we win. We will know tomorrow all going well.

We are standing in the abyss. I ran over a small compact car with a truck. **** just got real!

I'm excited for you.

I hope the car/truck was just a metaphor or something.

I just turned on the BBC news to start watching the election results. The broadcasters are suggesting that a push at the end by the "Better Together" (i.e., NO on independence) campaign may have turned the tide against independence.

I was really surprised to hear two thirds of the 16-17 year olds, traditionally the more liberal segment, polled were no's. I wore my Tartan to work today.

Ut-oh...Kirmy's bad day may not be over yet.

"The first result in the Scottish independence referendum has been announced, with most people voting "No" in Clackmannanshire by 54% to 46%."

This area was predicted to be EXTREMELY likely to vote yes. They are the first results in...not so good for the independence movement.

With half the "precincts" (shires?) counted, the NO vote is almost a done deal (although some big ones are still to report).
