party affiliation

Voter's declared side

Party affiliation is the political party a person identifies with or belongs to.

It may reflect formal membership or simply how someone votes: Voters must declare their party affiliation to participate in the primary.

The phrase appears often in discussions of bias, registration, and demographic patterns: The judge's party affiliation raised questions about impartiality.
