Spellbound says
Stalin would have easily won any election with only him and Trotsky standing.
Why? For many reasons:
1) Trotsky was no longer Commissar for Military Affairs (NOT Secretary of War), and his popularity among the armed forces had been waning since the rebellion at Kronshtadt was brutally put down. Trotsky had given the orders to put down the rebellion.
2) Stalin controlled the Party – he would have ensured that ALL his party voted for him.
3) Trotsky was never that popular among the population
4) Stalin was popular(ish) among the various nationalities, as he was Commissar For Nationalities and his policies had been favourable for many of the ethnic or linguistic groups of the Soviet Union.
5) Perhaps the most important reason – Trotsky was Jewish. He ruled himself out of the running on the grounds that the Russian people would never accept a Jewish leader: sadly he was probably right.
