Murdo getting his arse kicked . Reckon Eastwood will be a hold

A hold but as close as it’s been.

Eastwood voting SNP would have been incredible.

Indeed , Labour have blown themselves there. Theres prob some tactical voting there but I think there is no doubt that there is a slight overall increase in SNP votes

It's clear that tactical voting has come into play in this election.

The list vote will be interesting

Wont be an overall majority that means breaking the system and its next to impossible. 

 
Exactly, the system is designed to return minority verdicts, not majority verdicts, SNP are on course for an excellent campaign though already and it’s not even half time yet! 
 

Shame about Mundell getting in again, but they’re on borrowed time as the gap is narrowing each time! 
 

Scottish Borders has no chance of being over turned, I’m ashamed to say I’m from there but thankful that I no longer live there!

Salmond looking like he's just lost a court case.

 

 

 

Heading for zero MSPs.

It's not even supposed to be possible to get an overall majority in an AV system.

2011 was a total freak result.

 

But the hard of thinking (and the UK press) will tug themselves to death over "SNP FAIL TO GET MAJORITY" headlines.

It'll be interesting to see the turnout and total votes for both Constituency and Regional votes.

Agree. 

 

SNP are below 50% of the vote. Might end up around 42 to 45%.

 

But its still very good result. Somehow taken for granted.

I knew there was something I liked about Angus Robertson. 

What, that he was born in London, or that he sold his 2nd home in London in 2017, on which the mortgage was paid on expenses?

 

You've got to love politicians :biggrin2:

He must have no time to himself. He's always on Facebook answering peoples questions.

Tactical voting played a part, but he's well liked by most

42/45% seems low. 
 

Labour and Tory losing votes then gaining with tactical. Snp staying steady id say.

Bonnie Prince Bob will lose his deposit.  A solid 300 odd votes.  Hibs prick. 

Hopefully “Mystery Edinburgh Muscle Man” stands next year.

He is well liked but not by me! You're correct about FB etc. He knows how to play the game. I can't stand him and will be having a chat with my family about him 😄

Rudi Skacel was born in Trotnov. And Purchased at least 3 houses on his wages from Hearts which we all contributed to and which massively exceeded the wage of an MSP.

 

Personally I love the guy ❤️
