The problem being when "speaking" in a political forum, terms such as most or least are usually thought of in extremist terms so most could be understood to be above 90% and least under 10%. Such as propagating the idea that most republicans are far right misogynistic racists or most democrats are far left liberal communists. That could lead to the idea that most of the country is extremely politically divided, which I disagree with. I think that most of the population is currently unaffiliated and most of the country is also pretty apathetic when it comes to politics...hence the usual dismal voter turnout. All this hooplah from both sides about voter fraud and voter suppression when the reality is "most" simply don't seem to give a shit.

Most just busy trying to secure shelter and put food on the table.
