Why HN links it
One commenter links a September 2014 post on the Scottish independence referendum as background reading for a referendum data map. The comment does not discuss the writing itself.
Summarised by Claude from a sample of 1 HN comments that link here. Each comment is marked recommending, critical or neutral (citing without judging); how this works.
