In the first Russian parliamentary elections, just after the Bolsheviks had gained power in 1917, the Socialist-Revolutionaries got almost 40% of the vote, the Bolsheviks only a quarter. So the bolshevik Sovnarkom closed the Constituent Assembly and shot demonstrators. how frustrating for the masses not to vote in the way you know they should eh
