Being 5% of the group doesn’t mean they are 5% of the influence. The loudest 5% may get to set the agenda of the remaining 95% if the remaining ones are willing to go along with things they don’t particularly care about, but don’t oppose enough to make these things deal-breakers either.

It also helps if the 5% have arguments for their positions.
