Microjority 

My new word MICROJORITY meaning an amount greater than 50% but less than 55% considered to be as 50/50 - Or in a non-binary example (where 3 or more split options exist) then a MICROJORITY result would be a where the largest of the results is within 5% points of the next lowest.
The word is used to demonstrate an amount/quantity split in parts where the largest part is only slightly greater than the next largest. Therefore Microjority gives a better prospective of the result.

'Micro' (from the Greek meaning small) 'jority' from 'Majority' meaning larger part/number, greater part/number, major part, main part, more than half but gives the impression of being much greater than 55%.

Example; A ballot of 10,000,000 voters where the result is 5,000,001 - 4,999,999. The majority is 1 vote but the vote should be referred to as a Microjority - not a Majority.
The UK - EU Brexit vote)48% voted to remain - vs - 52% to leave. Leave was won by a small majority - A Microjority.

Micronority 

A classified subset of people, usually nested within a pre-existing minority group ad infinitum, or made of intersections of minority classifications. Often found to parasitize or symbiotically coexist within a larger minority group in service to their own smaller group goals, delegation of resources, management of attention, self-identification, and core niché issues. Fractal patterns define the term visually.
"Jane and I are African Americans in the USA, so we are minorities. However, Jane is also non-binary and disabled, making her also a 'micronority' with her own smaller subset of valid needs and issues."

The word 'flag' as pronounced by people with thick Belfast accents. The term is a perfect encapsulation of the disproportionate and overblown reaction to the removal of the Union Jack (as in 'de fleg') from above City Hall in Belfast. Where previously it had flown for 365 days per year, it is now flown on 17 designated days of the year - in line with many other British cities.

The event caused a portion of the Protestant community ('fleggers') to make international pricks of themselves as they proceeded to wreck the fucking place, claiming it was another erosion of a 'British' identity they perceive to have been under attack since the horrifying spectre of equality reared its head in Northern Ireland.

The word 'fleg' - and indeed 'fleggers' - fittingly describes a section of humanity unconcerned with knowledge, reality or the vagaries of the English language. Like America's tea-baggers they are ruled by instinct, fear and paranoia with a side dish of rampant bigotry and startling ignorance of the world around them.
"Wat de fuck like! The taigs got de fleg took down! Let's wreck de fuckin place! No surrender!"

"De fleg has been took down! Before ye know it there'll be a united Ireland! Attack Short Strand! God Save The Queen!"

To take something small, that doesn't quite qualify as a theft. Probably from the Danish "skæv" or the Dutch "scheef", both of which are pronounced similarly, meaning "askew, or not quite right'. To change an item's ownership without permission, but only something small and of little worth.
"I skeefed an apple off the neighbor's tree." "I skeefed some chips outta your bag when you looked away." "Don't skeef my chair when I go to the bathroom."
