Not while they're still living in a police state. Anyone who wanted to position himself as a leader in the past risked imprisonment, or worse.

Potential leaders need to be freed from the fear of arrest; then to be able to campaign for enough time for the voters to decide among them. I would think they would need a few months, at least.
