Most

what is confusing is that when someone gets 100% of the votes, he did technically get most of the votes. "most" simply means the greatest, can be 50,01% or 100% --- it is the most. e.g. a weapon with 100% damage is the *most* effective. yet when you are pouring a liquid and you ask "how much?" and the person guiding says "most of it" what seems implied here is "less than 100%" --- so words can have contradictory meanings.
