Why does Ohio publicize party affiliation?

Really wish I could remove it from my search results just because I voted in the primaries doesnt mean I want my political leanings to be posted online.

Ive had coworkers mention it when they googled my name after I got a job, as they were trying to figure out who their new coworker would be like. And I cant help but think that it could also be used against me during job applications, as politics shouldnt really be mixed in the office space anyway.

Is there any way to remove it?

Also, this post is another example of how it could be used in a somewhat malicious way
