Kind of. "Minor parties" are allowed as long as they don't actually challenge the CCP for control, the CCP gets to approve all of their candidates, and of course all put together they somehow can never quite break the CCP supermajority in the national congress.

More relevant would be leaders of power blocs in the CCP itself.

That banned party list is a fun read. Like five of them are actual Maoists/Marxists.
