No, politics is specifically concerned with government. Any other use is generally a metaphor for government, like "office politics." Voting on what food to get for dinner isn't "politics," neither is boycotting a store for treating their employees poorly.
"A methodology and activities associated with running [...] an organization" -- https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/politics
Any organizational decision is politics, including but not limited to a group of people organizing a pizza meal.
