I worked for three years as the sole democrat, and a fairly radical democrat, in an office full of republicans. I spoke my mind when asked, but no one asked very often. Not once they found out, lol. I didn't feel particularly shut out for that. In fact, I think they kind of thought of me as their pet democrat.
It's not worth getting into heated confrontations at work, though. Best to just be honest when the subject comes up and follow the old adage about religion and politics otherwise.
