Independence referendum news: ALMOST ALL SCOTS WILL VOTE IN REFERENDUM - 97% Almost all Scots registered to vote – a boost for the yes vote? There are 275,000 more people registered to vote than in the last Holyrood election. Around one-third of these will be 16-17 year olds and many of the rest are believed to be from poorer areas where the Yes campaigns have concentrated efforts at encouraging registration. These groups are believed to be the strongest groups for a Yes vote and may not be picked up in opinion polls.
