Wikipedia can't be cited, but you can always steal its sources.

Whole process people's democracy

https://english.www.gov.cn/news/202403/03/content_WS65e47e91c6d0868f4e8e494c.html https://archive.is/FNP6x#selection-423.0-426.0

IIRC, the Chinese were exploring similar processes to the Singaporeans, who also have a one-party state (except theirs is a cross between social democracy and fascism, as opposed to a cross between classic AES and social democracy). This employs the use of polling, surveys, and focus groups to constantly investigate what the people want, and put it into consideration for policy decisions.

Another buzz word in China is the mass line, so if you don't have time or can't extend the scope to compare and contrast different countries' definitions of democracy, you can simply explore how the notion of democracy has evolved in China from Sun Yatsen (Sun Yixian) to Xi Jinping, and how China, mostly, lives up to its own definition of democracy.

True, and this will work for a school paper (teachers and professors never check sources because there are too many), but you should critically look at all the sources they use as well. Many of them are not only unsupportive, but actually support the opposite of what they are cited for. Science, politics, and history.
