Indyref 15: the count

[SantanaLopez]

Evening all!

I'd be surprised if Edinburgh was a Yes.

"tabulahrasa if it is any consolation I don't think many No voters are thrilled with the Orange Order either."

Oh god I know that...I just mean, it'd need to be a huge yes for west lothian to be a yes.

I'm a yes voter but I do hope that if no wins they do so by a significant margin as a near 50/50 split could be problematic. I just hope that the various Westminster mps who where promising us all sorts of powers deliver or god knows how it will eventually play out.

Hearts It's late! ... or is it now early?!

Edinburgh will be a no and has been all along, I think. Midlothian (my area) I think will be a no. But I might be wrong there.

And if this wasn't a reason to vote No then I don't know what was!

Oops I should have said, the tagline to that is 'Serious Problems for the Proclaimers should Scotland go independent'

My facebook already has shouts of fix on it, which is quite impressive really.

Wait for the claims of media bias affecting the result...

Squoosh

That Nicola Sturgeon tweet.

I saw a graph earlier that had Midlothian as a lot more likely to be Yes than Edinburgh

Lots of No predictions on lots of different news feeds.

tabulahrasa yes of course, apologies. I always found it frustrating to vote in elections when I knew it would just go straight to Labour or Conservative no matter what I did. I feel this referendum gave people a chance to be heard if nothing else. I of course want a No win but I hope we can learn lessons from it and progress forward if we prevail.

misskelly couldn't agree more. They will be so buggered if they don't deliver.

It wasn't Lesley Riddoch I was talking about before it was the other woman who was on with her - as I said, she was wearing red.

Statistically. I may be talking nonsense (strong possibility). Midlothian, I'd say, is pretty mixed. The area I'm in is urban/working class but also with a high proprtion of older voters.

The private poll in my head says...see what the voters say :)

zuid

No no Lesley Alex Salmond is a one trick pony. Let's hope he buggers off for once and for all after this if it is a No. Or a Yes actually. Can you imagine him sharing centre stage with Obama, Merkel et al as a Prime Minister? Cringe...

I don't have turnouts yet for:

Aberdeenshire
Argyll and Bute
East Ayrshire
Edinburgh
Eilian Siar
Fife
Highland
Moray
Perth
West Dunbartonshire

Shout if you see them!

The private poll may be affected by a wine/water correlation.

Man stuck beside Lesley Riddoch speaks sense.

DH was watching in the other room (I'm in bed) and has just told me that we have lost our satellite coverage. Anyone else being affected by this massive thunderstorm? At least I still have you guys and the BBC website!

Rescue man stuck beside Riddoch!

Sorry latte I am getting my women in red mixed up I think. Need a cuppa.

Lot of expensive new build houses in Midlothian though.

Who is man beside Lesley Riddoch?

The BBC news feed now has a picture of the helicopters bringing the ballots from the isles. Islay had a very active No-group of business people. I saw them campaigning on the mainland a few times.
