Scottish Elections: Labour-SNP likely
EDINBURGH---The Scottish Parliament is currently dissolved ahead of the May election. As of now, Labour is on 26%, the SNP have 24%. Scottish Tories have 18%, Scottish Lib Dems have 12%, Greens also on 12%, and various parties and independents collectively make 8%. Politics on this side of Hadrian's Wall seems to reflect an electorate that is moderately progressive; the SNP hasn't successfully linked progressivism with Scottish identity, like Nicola Sturgeon did. Labour, on the other hand, seems to be enjoying a slight Westminster bump but plainly has work to do.
