Imagine if Republicans got to vet and affirm any Democrats who would serve in congress, how much power do you think the Democrats would have? Regardless, it’s not like the NPC has much power anyways, they basically just rubber stamp whatever the politburo decides on.

Also paradoxically, given that the NPC has a quota for non-CPC members, it is often easier to get a seat being a non communist than a communist.
