<<<"Elections in democratic countries are a taboo topic in China, for example, the Taiwan presidential elections [earlier this year]," Huang told RFA. "Of course the main reason is that the authorities don't want news of the democratic model to spread in mainland China.">>>
A democratic China means death to the Communist Party. This terrified the ruling Communist Party. Although democratic process looks messy sometimes, the reward is individual freedom to choose their president or prime minister. This is the idea of government of people by the people, not government of a small elitist group decide among themselves. The country belongs to everyone, therefore, everyone should be involved if they wanted to.
