Do you believe that Scotland voted '55% NO' in the referendum of 2014? The poll result: 14% believe 55% voted 'No' and 86% don't believe 55% voted 'No'. This doesn't prove anything of course, but it aligns with every other on-line poll I've seen on Scottish independence. I find it impossible to square the official referendum result with the on-line polls I saw prior to the referendum, every one of which showed overwhelming majorities for 'Yes'. Not one single poll put 'No' in the lead. I find the reasons put forward for 'No' voters supposedly not voting in on-line polls simply unbelievable. That's to say nothing of the astroturf 'No' campaign, the blank-backed ballot-papers and the evidence of mass postal-voting fraud. I'm not saying that nobody voted 'No', but I've yet to encounter anyone either on-line or in real life who did (or who is willing to admit to it). Given the lack of evident support for 'No' and the overwhelming support for 'Yes' prior to the referendum, it's an absolute mystery to me who all these supposed 'No' voters were.
