Haggis_trap Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 High turn out should be good for pro independence majority. I am now quietly hopefully of pro-independence majority - though it will be tight given the voting system. Green on 10% with ALBA on just 3% is the new story from exit polls that catches my eye.

Haggis_trap Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 p.s Wings Over Scotland can f--k right off! I don't mind people voting ALBA on the constituency list. However yesterday he was actively encouraging people not to vote SNP for the MSP vote - self centered insanity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High turn out could mean literally anything. And there is no exit poll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So higher turn out than normal means SNP got the vote out.... Time will tell! There is a projected poll on previous page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kumnio Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Baillie saying Labour needs to listen and learn to the Hartlepool disaster. You’ve needed to listen and learn for over a decade you stupid fuckers. People need to understand that it’s a free Scotland, or a Tory Britain, that’s the two choices. Unless you’re a stupid Tory or uber Brit, there’s only one choice.

Seems to be a consistent theme across the country. Regardless of what party people vote for, the increased turnout is nothing but a good thing.

Orkney just declared 65% turnout 5% swing to SNP from Twitter - haven't seen anything formal other than LD hold though. BBC actually have overall turnout at 65% https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/topics/c37d28xdn99t/scottish-parliament-election-2021 They also seem to have 'All For Union' ahead of 'Alba' in alphabetical order!
