Until recently Fyxoom had used a FPTP voting system. After a major movement to reform this voting system, it switched to [[w:approval voting|approval voting]].


There is a split between a fiscally conservative faction (Liberty Party), a traditional centrist faction (Republican Democrats) and a newly ascendant futurist faction (All Sentience). Old guard politicians, such as the Republican Democrat and former President Hølgi Mercáz-Smool and the Liberty Party, are widely disliked.
