Bifactionalism, in the context of Texas politics, refers to:

As the name implies, Bifactionalism is when the political activity or in this case, the congress and legislators of Texas are divided into two groups, two factions, with very different ideas or separated from each other, which causes a very marked division in government. The bifactionalism was developed during the time of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1933 to 1945) when the Democrats were divided into two wings, the Conservative and the Liberal, all within the same state of Texas. In the present, it could be said that there is a class of bifactionalism, having democrats and republicans dominating the national political environment, almost without other interventions of political groups different from both.
