The Union State of Pulacan is a multi-party democracy, with numerous regional parties holding tribal, class, and ideological loyalty. Though these parties are typically most active in the national-level Pulatec Union Legislative Assembly, some are active within the internal politics of the tribal nations, where they push for grassroots change through the dikgotla direct democratic system. The dominant party in the House of Delegates, the Republic's assigned lower house, elects a Chief Minister, who is then approved by the President to act as head of government and to form a cabinet. The Chief Minister is typically the leader or chief spokesman of the largest party in government.
