DaveG38 Posted September 20, 2014 Posted September 20, 2014 I think, if there were any genuine concerns about ballot rigging, that the SNP would have been keeping a very close eye on things on the night and the accusations of widespread rigging (because that it what is being alleged here) would have long surfaced by now in a big way. In short, the SNP would have been screaming from the rooftops, even demanding a criminal investigation. They are not, which to me says that there is nothing wrong with this result at all.I don't know what the writer of this piece saw or thought he saw, but he seems to have information from a wide range of places, so he clearly wasn't there to see things himself. Either that or he has combed through TV footage and has come to conclusions that may or may not be correct. If he genuinely believes that fraud has taken place, then he should raise it with the police and the returning officers to see what that brings. My guess would be nothing as there's nothing to find. Anybody who has taken the trouble to examine the conspiracy theories concerning 9/11 will know that a whole lot of erroneous and downright malicious claims can be dredged up out of nothing, usually based on ignorance or the prejudices of those making the claims. I suspect that's what we are seeing here. Quote
