Banterous Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) Have a feeling the silent No will be a lot stronger than people are estimating. The volume of the Yes campaign in social media would suggest about 80/20 Yes/no. The amount of people I know who have never uttered a peep about the referendum on social media, or told canvassers they are undecided to appease them at the door step, but are actually voting/have already voted no is pretty big. I think this silent majority will outweigh new YES'ers in a lot of areas. It's fear. Afraid to voice an opinion maybe? i certainly am and they will vote No because of the lack of stability caused by agreeing to a gamble full of more holes than Swiss cheese.

(Oh, and this isn't intimidation because I think you're a coward. It's because I think you're a c**t, irrespective of political tendencies) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casual Bystander Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 It's fear. Fear created by the petty and negative campaigning of the Bitter crowd. Got a video to help you.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colkitto Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Despite the TV media showing activists from both sides knocking doors the simple fact is the No campaign just doesn't have the "boots on the ground" They cannot compete with the Yes campaign in terms of active supporters. For that reason I'm going to say the Yes campaign polling would be more accurate than the No campaign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Bairn Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Huffington post is saying there will not be an exit poll. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forever_blue Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 what does the undecided currently sit at ? 6-10%? if so i just can not imagine a uge amount of people who are undecided at this point will go in to a polling booth and vote yes, I am not saying this as a No voter , I am just meaning it does not make sense to be undecided all this time when you are probably undecided due to reasons such as risks and lack of information to go in and vote yes. I think a few obvioulsy will go in and probably end up just choosing yes but I cant see most of the undecideds doing so? i hope what I am trying to say here is making sense as I think i have made an arse of it thoughts anyone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banterous Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Don't kid yourself. It's not FEAR, it's outright SHAME. Oh ok so anyone who votes against your choice is doing so out of "shame", Interesting take on the right to vote but I suppose it's better than verbal and physical intimidation. However my problem is that people within the Yes campaign seem to find voting No unacceptable. Well you better get used to it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
