—Synonyms 3. Majority, plurality, in the context of an election, poll, or other voting situation resulting in a statistically based statement, both denote an amount or number larger than some other. In situations in which only two candidates, options, or positions are concerned, the terms are interchangeable, though majority is by far the more commonly used: She beat her opponent by a large majority. The proposal received a large plurality of “Yes” votes. When three or more choices are available, however, a distinction is made between majority and plurality. A majority, then, consists of more than one-half of all the votes cast, while a plurality is merely the number of votes one candidate receives in excess of the votes for the candidate with the next largest number. Thus, in an election in which three candidates receive respectively 500, 300, and 200 votes, the first candidate has a plurality of 200 votes, but not a majority of all the votes cast. If the three candidates receive 600, 300, and 100 votes, the first has a majority of 100 votes (that is 100 votes more than one-half the total of 1000 cast) and a plurality of 300 votes over the nearest opponent.

This thread isn't as bad as I thought it would be. Should probably give it time though.

Banhammer before bedtime?

figures the answer would be somethin I could have easily found.

although then whites would be a plurality, not a minority, wouldn't they?

they are a plurality AND a minority. "Minority" simply means less than 50%

more than 50% of all americans are actually abnormal

I'd like to think that by 2050 the white people of this nation will not freak out about this too much

Sadly there's an 85% chance I will get a call from one of my parents complaining about the "downfall of America" after they see this item.

If you count by dollars instead of by noses, whites clearly regain the majority.

Are we talking mass here or nostril count?

What is the nose-to-dollar exchange rate these days?
