EDINBURGH, Scotland — The two sides in Scotland’s independence debate scrambled Tuesday to convert undecided voters, with just two days to go until a referendum on separation.
Thursday’s referendum, in which more than 4.2 million people are registered to vote, is a high-stakes decision that could end a political union that has stood since 1707.
Anti-independence campaigners argue that separation could send the economy into a tailspin.
The other side accuses its foes of scaremongering and says independence will give Scots political control and economic prosperity.
After a late poll surge for the pro-independence side, Britain is striving to convince Scottish voters that they will gain more autonomy if they do not secede.
