I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advise, but in most countries including the U.S. it is not illegal to ask for a persons political affiliation. It is not advisable to do this however as it can lead to discrimination lawsuits.
- dragonwriter 6y agoExcept in states where political affiliation is a protected class (like California), there would be no basis for such a suit, as it is not federally illegal to discriminate based on political affiliation.
- LinuxBender 6y agoCompletely agree. I just added that as a measure of best practice to avoid people going through that process in the first place.
