Answer:

Two reasons why voting in the Democratic Republic of Korea (or North Korea) cannot be considered an example of a democratic process are as follows:

1- North Korea is a country whose political system is based on one-party, that is, the existence of a single political party: the Workers' Party. Therefore, there is no political party that opposes the North Korean government, which designates its leaders to almost perpetual positions.

2- The elections in this country are rigged so that it is the members of the Kim family who gain access to the main positions of power, without admitting other candidates, even if they belong to the same party, constituting the country into a tyrannical dynasty.
