Most? Even that article said 60/40 with a ton of caveats.
"The bottom line is both Democrats and Republicans are responsible for growth of the national debt." A politician never met a dollar he didn't like. Reminds me of Who's Line Is It Anyway - 'the rules are made up and the debt doesn't matter' Until it does!

OK: "Most" - greatest in amount, quantity, or degree.

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.

Calling 60% 'most' is pretty small beer, as political exaggeration goes. It's not even a lie.
All the exaggeration and lying is a vicious circle. You exaggerate to try to get people's attention, and they tune you out because you exaggerate. So some go for the big whoppers to try to either get some attention, or brainwash the brainwashable.

However I never heard of the Guardian Statues on that bridge when I lived in Vermilion for the first 25 years of my life. I think they should have renamed them the Cleveland Hargroves, in honor of the Human Rain Delay lol.
