The LDS Church maintains a degree of neutrality when it comes to politics. Here is some basic information behind that premise.
In 2000, The First Presidency of the LDS church issued the following statement regarding political neutrality:
"Candidates for public office should not imply that their candidacy is endorsed by the Church or its leaders, and Church leaders and members should avoid statements or conduct that may be interpreted as Church endorsement of any political party, political platform, or candidate. In addition, members who hold public office should not give the impression they represent the Church as they work for solutions to social problems."
