kumnio Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I think the SNP will just sneak a majority. If theres a lot of Greens on the regional vote, I wouldnt mind a minority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Tory vote increases on the regional vote as much as it has in the constituencies (And I can't see any reason why it shouldn't) then they are going to win more seats than Labour quite comfortably. SNP constituency voters giving there regional vote to Greens on the list will help the Tories get more seats. This is going to be a very good night for the Ruth Davidson Unionist Party.
