As far as I know, none of any political party asks about religious affiliation - that would be unconstitutional.
Whatever a party member of any party believes - when joining, she/he signs the party statutes. Action against this leads to party exclusion.
The election of candidates for local, district, regional, state and federal parliaments differ from party to party (might be different in in some states with the same party as well)
I can imagine that sometimes the religious affiliation had or has some effect, at least on the local level.
