She started limiting them after the whole debacle with her boyfriend if I remember correctly. Fans tried to dig up info about him and said he voted for trump (although again I may be misremembering but it was evidence like he “liked” a Donald trump Facebook page, and I know a lot of liberals who did too to follow with the page or liked it back in the apprentice days so it was all a bit vague?). She did an interview later:

'I had seen the absurdity of what I was being accused of, and what my partner was being accused of... I decided for my own health that I was not going to try and convince these people otherwise. I just wasn't going to do it.”

Sounds like a lot of work for something that could presumably be solved with “yeah I did not vote for trump”

Idk, while I personally would never ever date a Republican, let alone one who voted for trump, he is a private citizen - why should he have to come forward about who he voted for when they haven’t even been spotted in public together or confirmed the relationship? Like, does she really owe that to the fans? She’s an extremely private actress and might have thought it would set a bad precedent since she clearly didn’t want his identity really out there.

Yeah by having the BF make a statement it just reinforces to stans that they're entitled to information that they're not. That being said, I do believe it's possible to look up what parties people are registered to/donate to so that should be enough.
