The term, "vast majority", is not well defined in mathematics. The general meaning would depend on the context and the subjective mindset of the speaker. For example, if you were an Eskimo you might believe that the vast majority of Eskimos survive the bitter winter, but if your neighbor's wife froze to death in February, he might disagree.

•Vast majority - means almost all or something like 90% or more, but less than unanimous.
•Overwhelming majority - means well beyond any hope of finding enough who are swayable to take the opposite case or something like 75% or more
•Large majority - means an unquestionable number such that there's no point in demanding a recount or something like 60%
•Small majority - means a comfortable margin, but not enough to take for granted or something like 53%
•Bare majority - means you just barely cracked 50.1% and if this were an election and your opponent demanded a recount, you are probably toast, or 50.1% or more
