can you show me the math to prove this? or give a technical explanation of exactly how you would do this.. so far no one has been able to do this.

Once you control 50%+1 of the votes, you vote for forks that give you equal or more voting power.

Check-points can help guard against this, but can be a central point of failure if not carefully implemented (possibly leveraging the Bitcoin PoW blockchain).
