You're repeating yourself by quoting the propaganda web site,
again that proves nothing.

Just read up Freddy.
Links to the Cuban law and even quotes from Cuban ministers.

Cherry picked and taken out of context.

Nope.
The Cuban electoral law is fully quoted and the quotes are neatly
referenced


Neatly cherry picked, yes. Thanks for the neatness, but neatly told
lies are of no use to honest people.

When you have a field
of 2 to 8 candidates you have to vote to determine which one it will
be.

all "2 to 8" "cherry puicked" and pre-selected.

By the people. It's called democracy. Other nations should try it,...
and the sooner the better.

Many people probably know in advance because they've just spent up
to a year and a half nominating candidates and discussing issues
(snip)

there is no freedom of speech in Cuba.

Lie.

Issues can't be "discussed".

But they are, and very extensively.

Criticizing the regime will land you in jail for years.
