Sorting by percentage of "yes" votes
Now that you've summarized the dataset by country, you can start examining it and answering interesting questions.
For example, you might be especially interested in the countries that voted "yes" least often, or the ones that voted "yes" most often.

# You have the votes summarized by country
by_country <- votes_processed %>%
