One of the very first things our "comrade" did after seizing power was to subinfeudate the workers' council to Bolshevik rule. Soviet elections--that's REAL soviets, REAL workers' councils--were conducted by private ballot and a public count. Our vanguardist in chief took a dim view of such democratic practices and, thereafter, it was reversed. Since now voting was done by the raising of hands anybody who voted contrary to to the wishes of the party could be easily identified and dealt with by Lenin's goons in the Tcheka.
