With Glasgow and Dundee turnout not being as good as expected and against smaller council areas, in terms of percentage, these smaller council votes can definitely build up.
I need to go to bed soon too. Working tomorrow. What Scotland will we wake up to in a few hours??
Inverclyde votes No Yes - 27,243 No - 27,329

And there are already claims of voter fraud in Glasgow and the counting in Dundee was interrupted by a fire alarm. Not saying there IS anything shady going on, but chances are someone will say something.

Inverclyde says no, 50.1 to 49.9. Closest of the night so far.

Not saying there IS anything shady going on, but chances are someone will say something. And, Twitter blew up when a Yes ballot paper was seen on Sky News on top of a bundle of ballot papers on a table that said "No". It was merely due to the ballots being put on the table before being counted.

Aberdeen voted No

Aberdeen voted No I would assume that's a pretty big blow. It is, not surprising it was a No but the number of No voters is more than I thought. A huge amount of people in Aberdeen are employed in the oil and fishing industries where they have been concerned about an indy Scotland. I'm gonna call it as a No vote tonight lads. No is leading by over 140,000 votes. Thanks to those on mod duty in allowing us to discuss it tonight. As I said earlier, tomorrow, well its 4.45am now, is a new Scotland, and a new UK, regardless of the vote. I'm gonna wait until Glasgow calls their votes though then get two hours sleep before work. I just hope that this pledge for more powers comes to real fruition and from the fantastic turnout we have had it shows that people want change. The fact that now over a million people would rather leave the country with no currency plan in place rather than stay under the rule of Westminster means things must change. Political commentators have discussed the future of the UK now possibly becoming more federalised like the US, a central office but with almost total home rule over their individual countries.
