No. While purportedly so, it was a "parliamentarian democracy", and there is an enormous difference.
In the parliamentary style, there is a governing body - in the Boulder Free Zone's case, a "committee" - that decides things. The membership of the committee is "at large", meaning that the whole of the populace is voting for each one.
This is the kernel of a "representative democracy" in which various segments of the populace will have a representative that they and they alone vote for.
After that comes a "republic", in which while the representatives vote on various things, they are bound by a Constitution or body of laws, and so can not vote on certain things.
As the book showed, any government governed by rules of parliamentary procedure - or any other codified procedure - can be manipulated. As witness Harold Lauder's masterful manipulation that secured the "ad hoc committee" as the "permanent committee" without the need for separate votes for each individual member.
The Boulder Free Zone in 'The Stand' was more of a democratic society, as decisions were made collectively by the members of the community. However, it was not a perfect democracy, as power dynamics and conflicts still existed within the group.
