if picking just 10 countries (out of over 40) that actually mostly vote socialist is too high a bar for a group of 'mostly socialist' countries to clear, the bar is not the problem
personally i think that the ideological alignment of a countrys elected leaders, and by extension their voters, is pretty relevant to a discussion about the ideological alignment of a country
personally i think that judging whether something is socialist based on whether it enacts -some- socialist policies as opposed to whether it is socialist is inane
