No, Cuba is a dictatorship because after the guy in the green killed the guy on the throne, he just tool his place on the throne instead of holding free and fair elections.
Westerners continue to be the most brainwashed people on earth.
Im a different poster than the last person and generally unfamiliar with the Cuban electoral structure, are they able to run non-communist/non-Marxist candidates? If they cannot legally do so they do not have free elections using the standard definition of "free elections".
"Free" elections in Cuba would just mean immediate US vassalage. Influencing elections in the Caribbean and Latin America is a practically a US hobby.
Yes they are, even wiki would show you there's 28 unaffiliated members in Nation Assembly, and also you may read about how it look here - Cuba is way more democratic than literally every capitalist country.
That idiot literally thinks Castro is still alive and that Cuba has a "throne", don't act like westerners have any idea about the specifics of Cuban elections law when they're giving their ignorant opinions of it.
You should read up on Cuban Democracy. Not only is Cuba now more democratic than under Batista, a fascist slaver US puppet, Cuba is more democratic than countries like the United States.
You're insane.

The Communist party, the only party, nominates all candidates to the assembly. No candidate has ever lost election.
Cuba plays pretend democracy.
Watch the ableism with the claims of "insanity."
You really need to do more research. In Cuba, candidates are nominated by the people. The Party plays no role on this process. The actual elections are done with those that have been nominated, logically people will not change their mind. The United States hasn't had a third party Candidate win the presidency either, that's a silly sticking point for you.
I think it's amazing when US people try to claim that other countries they know jackshit about are undemocratic, while having a Dr. Seuss-ass electoral system with legalized bribing that exclusively elects ghouls everyone despises.
They wish to see Cuba recolonized, so they dismiss any claims that would get in the way of their moral standing in maintaining that stance. Ie, recolonization is better than living in a system where Castro (who isn't president anymore, though I doubt they know that) eats babies or some nonsense.
I recommend always Masses, Elites, and Rebels: The Theory of "Brainwashing."
And gerrymandering.
