The BBC Scotland analysts are very confused about the patterns so far.

Can we make Forest Whitaker King of Scotland regardless of what happens? I love that movie.

Come on, this movie was awesome!

EDIT: okay, roughly as predicted.

I'm getting the impression there's an urban -rural divide here.  If "Yes" wins in Glasgow by a huge margin but fails miserably everywhere else, I guess that means the "Yes" camp didn't do a good job getting its message out outside of big cities.

Am I wrong to assume this?  I'm asking because I don't know much about Scotland.

Also ideology. The Yes campaign in Glasgow has been more about socialism than nationalism. Its very different from the Tartan Tories in the NE.

Well yes but taking that into account it seems that "Yes" underperformed in rural areas while it did better than expected in Dundee (which is a somewhat big city if I'm not mistaken).

Dundee is 4th larges city, but nationalist heartland.
