Gonna give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they mean elections vs other democratic practices like sortition or maybe even direct democracy. The issue being that elections can be rigged or at least turn into popularity contests. Though the other methods have their issues too
The problem is that they never mention how it can be actually brought about. A revolution is needed to upturn the current system anyways, and we might as well go for socialism instead of weak sortition.

Socialism would still need to be democratic, how would we make group decisions?
Socialism is democratic comrade.
