He was a Republican, like his father. He was swept into the Kennedy movement because Robert Kennedy called MLK Sr. and said that the administration would release him from prison in exchange for endorsement. However, even thought he took the deal, MLK jr. still embraced his Republican views because he, as a minister, did not think it was proper for a minister to endorse a politician.
