Scottish vote: High turn out to benefit Yes vote?
FXStreet (Bali) - There has been a number of media reports suggesting that the turn out int he Scottish independence referendum has been incredibly high, with the latest postal vote turnout in Edinburgh just being announced at 89.6% by Sky news.
According to the Guardian: "Generally it has been assumed that a high turnout would benefit the yes camp. That was because yes support is disproportionately higher among lower social classes, and these are the people who in normal elections are less likely to turn out."
