Really want a yes vote. Looking more and more likely it will be a no vote, unfortunately.

Sky News running that there's several allegations of electoral fruad in Glasgow.

It's weird, you'd assume it'd be Yes by a canter if you go by pictures of the groups out on the streets etc... yet every poll has No ahead by a substantial enough amount. And because there's been no exit polls it'll be difficult to trust these polls.

I reckon Yes might sneak it tbh.

Yes have made a lot more noise than No because they quite simply had to. Earlier today I felt so confident because everything I seen was people posting about voting yes and so many people seemingly changing their mind in the polling booth from a no to a yes. Then someone referred to the no side as the "quiet majority" and it made me realise how much more vocal the yes side had been. The only poll that matters obviously is the one that we will be starting to hear the results of soon but I just don't see any other outcome than a no vote.

Saw something saying it was apparently someone claiming their address was Ibrox but the resident at that address died in 2012

thankfully doesn't seem to be a huge deal.

I'm not buying the BBC claims that there's been a late shift towards No. Their agenda is pretty clear and theyre only going off today's YouGov poll. Yes should be good in Glasgow and Dundee, decent support in Aberdeen and Edinburgh could well be 50/50. I think this will be proper close.

Without wishing to infer anything either way, when my grandmother was running for MP in the late 70s in Birmingham she ran in a heavily Irish area where people were quite happy to vote for dead relatives because "they'd have voted Labour if they were alive."

Fire alarm at Dundee. Poor start for yes there...

Just imagine if Wales had a referendum

[Star of Spurs]

Shetland no.

So Salmond is resigning tomorrow morning, right?

[shaunie]

No chance will he resign. He'll stay and fight for "more powers" that David Cameron promised
