If 90%+ of the people want to secede they should be able to.


It's not 90%. Before Sunday, roughly 40% of the Catalan population backed independence. Turn out was only 40%, meaning the Catalans wanting to stay in Spain figured oh, the vote is illegal, let's not go out to get confronted by police.

That's not to mention the fact that there were multiple reports that people were just voting over and over again. Even the "observers" confirmed that there was an extended period where their electronic lists were unavailable, and they had a two hour window after the poll close to try and remove multiples.
