Nobody is disputing that in a democratic vote the margin to win is by one vote. A narrow win (0.02%) is just as valid a win on the day as a resounding win (80-20%).
I’d say where less than 1 in 25 people need to change their mind in a two option scenario that’s quite narrow. If you need 12 out of 25 people to change their mind for the opposite result then I’d say that’s pretty resounding.
