Référendum en Écosse et échos aux États-Unis

Au-delà de la position de l'administration Obama que j'abordais dans une chronique hier, le référendum écossais suscite de nombreuses réactions aux États-Unis.

 "“This would be a really momentous thing, and you just can’t predict what would happen,” said Austan Goolsbee, a University of Chicago economist and former top adviser to President Barack Obama, whose family traces its heritage to the Scottish Highlands. “There’s tons of uncertainty, from the question of the currency to what school maps would look like to how you divide the national debt. There are millions of details to be worked out from the mundane to the very serious.”

 Polls suggest the vote — once considered a certain blowout for the “No” side to reject independence — could be quite close. The latest surveys show “No” leading by a narrow margin of 52 percent to 48 percent. But many question the value of polling on the issue when turnout and the makeup of the electorate remain so uncertain."
