The Bolshevik Revolution abolished all hope for a democratic liberal order. Many Bolsheviks wanted an election, Lenin wanted to remain in charge and only reluctantly agreed to them. The outcome of the elections split with rural areas opposing Lenin and the larger cities favoring him. He concluded the advanced segments had voted for him, shut down Constituent Assembly after one meeting and sent guards in to make sure they did not meet again. He encouraging class wars against "rich and poor peasants" across the country. In 1918, Russia signed the Treaty of Brest -Litovsk that deprived it of the entire Ukraine, the Baltic provinces, Finland and caused many communist to resign in disgust.
Around 14 million Russians died in the 3-year struggle and the famine that followed. In the end, the Red Army crushed all opposition.
It gave success to Lenin, who was succeeded up Stalin, thus giving way to Communism and the USSR. That's pretty much the simplest answer.
