What are these percentages?

The percent of the vote they got into power by?

Lets re-display that not as a percent of merely the turnout, nor merely the electorate, but as a percentage of the entire populations they purport to represent.

    They are approval ratings, not electoral results. Bourgeois democracy regularly fails to put popular candidates in power.
