According to this, over 90% voted for independence. Granted, less than half of the population casted votes since many voting stations were raided by police, but it's pretty safe to say the majority of Catalans favor independence.
On the day of the 'referendum', there were no registration rolls, no polling stations, ballot boxes came pre-filled, anyone could cast multiple votes. And people did.There was no electoral commission, no checks, no counting procedure. Secessionists commited countless violations of their own voting laws.
A huge number of ballots were never counted.
58% of the people did not vote; primarily those against secession; it was after all an illegal referendum.
In a region of 7,504,000 people... 2,000,000 is a clear minority.
