All Residents can propose bills (including amendments) or propose recall votes (a vote that removes from office any government member) in the MtS discord server (#bills and #elections respectively), and all Registered Voters may vote on it.<ref name=":0" /> This system in which citizens may propose legislation and recall votes is the reason why Mount September is often called a semi direct or direct democracy, or a minarchy. |

In Mount September, political parties are not formal in any way and tend to be jokes. Currently, there exists two political parties in MtS: |
|||
==== Active ==== |
|||
* Great Oldfriend Party (GOP) - Party that wishes to maintain the so-called "oldfriend regime". The GOP was founded and is led by [[RedDevel]]. |
|||
* United Coggers Party-Troggers Advancement Party (UCP-TAP) - Merger of the UCP and TAP that aims to remove the trollboard. The party is split on the issue of whether to re-install the cogboard or to install the theoretical trogboard.<br /> |
|||
==== Defunct ==== |
|||
| ⚫ | |||
* United Coggers Party (UCP) - Single-issue party and voting bloc aiming to restore the MtS Discord server cogboard after it was replaced by the trollboard. The UCP was created by [[AmandaCC]] and has since recruited many members. Combined into the UCP-TAP. |

Mount September's owes its cosmopolitan nature to the presence of many expatriates, newfriends and oldfriends alike. It has inherited many elements of Augustan culture and society, including some aspects of its political system such as direct democratic participation. |
