As a graduate of the University of Stirling in Scotland, I am following with interest the debate on the voting for Scotland independence which will happen tomorrow Thursday 18th September 2014. "Uncertainty is bad for business" is a strong argument leading the "no" vote within the Scotch industry. Most polls have announced that the results will be slightly on favor of the 'No' until recently when some results have shown that in fact it might be closer and even possibly a 'Yes' winning.
- Scotland Yes and No Vote
1. Uncertainty is driving to the status quo and a 'No' vote.
2. Polls might not be representative of the true responses. Admitting a 'Yes' is admitting being against the English in some ways. Social desirability might lead people to admit a 'No' easier than a 'Yes'.

Hence, it will be interesting to see what will really happen in the private rooms when people are actually voting, and there are still about 15% of the people who are undecided one day before the vote.
