I've googled that as well, 16 year old thing only works Scottish elections...

I have made the same offer to my children as last time  if any of them want to emigrate in the event that Scotland vote yes to Indy I will fully fund their move and all expenses for the first year away, lot of money but would be money well spent I think.
 Interesting that the polls that the SNP had been setting so much store by are now a lot closer now and also now seem to show that the SNP would have to guarantee that we would have to get back into the EU right away even the liars in the SNP know that's not happening

Minty, The D'Hondt system or Additional Member System or 2 vote system or whatever you want to call it, is used in Scotland for Parliamentary elections to the Scottish Parliament. Anyone living in Scotland legally and 16 years old can vote in all the Scottish elections. This was the syatem that we were given when the Scottish Parliament was opened in 1999. It's purpose is to stop a single party gaining a majority.
