SNP deputy leader Stewart Hosie said he did not want to tempt fate'' by predicting how many seats his party would win
this late in the day''.
He said: Every single seat is different. I hope we have a good night. It has been a fantastic campaign.
I hope we do well. I hope we meet that target of actually winning the election in Scotland.''
Asked about the prospect of another independence referendum if the SNP does as well as predicted, he said: There can only be a referendum when there has been a qualitative change in circumstances.
We need to see a Westminster response. Will they finally keep the promise, the vow, the pledge they made to the Scottish people last year?''
