I don't think it was asked to be discriminatory......because we all know better than that.
The local Board of Elections handles that and, even when a voter app is being completed - unless you ask for help filling it out - I don't see any reason for them to be asking.
Your voter application can be sealed and mailed or returned in person without anyone having to see what you wrote, at least in my county.
They aren’t supposed to look though. I worked for my county elections office for the entire year of 2016, you might be surprised how much is done by hand. They will even re-create, by hand, your ballot if you don’t fill it out correctly, that what your votes can be counted.
I can see them asking who wants to vote, because they can receive absentee ballots a few weeks before election day.
DID a care facility ask what political party you or your loved one belonged to?
It certainly seems a strange question. Could you put it in context, please? Was "none" an acceptable answer?
They wouldn't be trying innovative ways of ensuring a good fit among room-mates, would they?
I think we need the context of the question.
It being asked and the answer as part of qualifying for admit, no.
That organization is industry standard for nursing assessments in case management.
I have never seen that question on any assessment. Political affiliation is not a factor in care delivery so, no, I don’t think that question can be on an needs assessment. Doesn’t make a hill of brand difference and you wouldn’t approach or card for them differently.
Like asking what religion you are or what language you prefer to speak.
I think we shouldn’t answer this With a yes or no answer unless the specific law can cited or without knowing why the OP is asking and what the context of the conversation was. Perhaps it was a misunderstanding. People in a facility have a right to vote. Political affiliation isn’t a protected class. Perhaps there was a voter registration drive at the facility and a resident was asked their political affiliation because that is one of the options on a voter registration form-you can register under a specific party or no party at all.
