And yet the CCP won't allow any elections. If the CCP did, how many of them would get elected ?

  You know, USSR had elections, and people actually went and voted.

    In Soviet elections, most ballots had a single candidate - the one nominated by the local party committee. Typical example: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A4%D0%B0%D0%B9%D0%BB:Ussr_elections_1974.jpg https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A4%D0%B0%D0%B9%D0%BB:Ussr_... (Sometimes you'd have the arrangement where there's token opposition that is similarly nominated, much like DPRK today.) As for people going to vote, that was actually enforced. While there was no law about it, strictly speaking, not going to vote would likely earn you a reprimand at work.

      That's the point. "Allowing elections" is not enough.
