10% - Record Poll for SSP The HeraldHerald Editorial - Prospects damaged unless Blair heeds voters "For the first time (the SSP) has reached double figures, securing the support of 10% of the electorate in the second, list vote for the Scottish Parliament elections. That puts it on a par with the Conservatives. In Glasgow, the SSP heartland, the figure rises to 22%, just behind the SNP. Glasgow has been an entrenched Labour stronghold, but the party is only 8% ahead of the SSP in the city. Across Scotland, the poll shows the SSP scoring 6% in the initial, first-past-the-post vote."
