Scottish voters choose to stick with U.K.
Scottish voters decided they are better off remaining part of the United Kingdom, a blow against independence that produced a huge sigh of relief in London and averted an uncertain future for the country. "The people of Scotland have spoken and it is a clear result. They have kept our country of four nations together, and like millions of other people, I am delighted," Prime Minister David Cameron said in a news conference from 10 Downing Street. "It would have broken my heart to see our United Kingdom come to an end." With Scotland's 307-year-old marriage with England hanging in the balance, polls had indicated a tight race. However, the No vote made a decisive victory as the independence referendum was defeated 55% to 45% amid an unprecedented high voter turnout of 84% of the 4.2 million who had registered to vote. http://usat.ly/1ugE1SO Get USA TODAY on your mobile device: http://www.usatoday.com/mobile-apps
