London, September 19 (RHC)-- Voters in Scotland have opted not to form an independent country. With a record turnout of 84 percent, about 55 percent of voters chose to remain in the United Kingdom, while 45 percent backed independence.
In the wake of the vote, British Prime Minister David Cameron has vowed to give Scotland more independent powers as part of a process known as "devolution." Cameron noted that he was very pleased with the outcome, saying: "It would have broken my heart to see our United Kingdom come to an end."
