If you have a society where there is that clear distinction in between the 51% and 49%, then you dont have one country. You have two countries. Its not applicable.

Very good point and scenario. The 49& would revolt and form their own "country" and government.

And then the 51% of the other country would perhaps try to enslave the original 49%. But that would not be democratic any more. That would be juts one country starting a war against another.
