Salmond hails 'most exciting day in Scottish democracy'
First Minister Alex Salmond has said today marks "the eve of the most exciting day in Scottish democracy".
Making his final speech ahead of tomorrow's Scottish referendum, Salmond said: "We meet here not to celebrate, not to presume, not to pre-empt.
"The latest poll has us on 49% - that means that we are the underdogs in this campaign as we always have been."
"We must do our utmost until 10pm tomorrow evening to persuade our fellow citizens that independence is the right road forward for Scotland."
