Reports are that the mood there is very celebratory.
The choices were for 'independence,' 'autonomy' and perhaps neither. The assumption is that with the celebratory mood, the voting will be overwhelmingly for independence. Earlier episodes of violence apparently intended to dissuade voting had obviously failed, and there were few, if any, reports of violence. I believe that the history of the place is that Indonesia invaded the former Portuguese colony. I encourage SCNA members to consider contributing to the earthquake relief fund for Turkey.
