From the linked article again:

>Its main provision prohibits civil service employees in the executive branch of the federal government,

Do "political (elected) officials" count as "civil service employees in the executive branch of the federal government"? My memory from civics class is a bit hazy, but I recall that elected officials are in the legislative branch, not the executive branch?

The president and vice president (executive branch) are elected officials.
