It's a very good point, and one that I don't think has been really addressed.

I know we live in a democracy, but even a general election is not a 50/ 50 majority vote.

I think on a an issue of this importance the majority required should have been around 65% minimum.

For something of this magnitude should not be decided by one or two percentage points, there should be an overwhelming majority either way.
