Scots campaigning for independence from the rest of the U.K. gathered support for a third straight month, while turnout at this year’s referendum is likely to be higher than in recent elections, according to the latest poll.
Backing for full autonomy for the Scottish government in Edinburgh rose two percentage points to 29 percent, while the proportion of voters wanting to keep the status quo advanced by a point to 42 percent, the TNS survey published yesterday found. People who said they were undecided declined to 29 percent.
