Results of Scotland independence referendum show widespread gains for 'No' camp

With more than 60% of the vote counted, the BBC has forecast a "No" victory, meaning that Scotland would remain part of the United Kingdom. CNN has not called the result. Read full story...
Voters in Scotland made their choice Thursday -- remain part of the United Kingdom, or form their own independent nation. 

With a majority of councils reporting, the "No" campaign enjoyed a significant lead. 

The first councils to declare all went to the "No" campaign.

Glasgow delivered a solid win for the independence camp with 194,779 votes for "Yes," and 169,347 for "No," but lead was not big enough to overturn the "No" camp's overall majority so far, which maintains a 8% (54% to 46%) lead over pro-independence camp. 

The majority of the early results have been going the anti-independence camp's way. The "No" campaign extended lead with Angus and East Dunbartonshire council results, alongside a landslide in Dumfries and Galloway. The oil-rich city of Aberdeen also strongly voted for the unionist camp.

The city of Dundee was the first big gain for the independence campaign, voting "Yes" with 53,620 votes for, 39,880 against. 

The individual counts by local authorities -- there are 32 in Scotland -- are ultimately immaterial as it is the total number of votes countrywide that will determine the outcome.

Polls at more than 5,500 stations across all districts, from the remote highlands and islands to the big cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow, closed at 10 p.m. local time (5 p.m. ET). People still in line to vote at that time were allowed to cast ballots.
