AJAX request not sending to URL

I tried to send an ajax request to a URL, expecting to get a json response, however, the request doesn't seem to be sending to /login. Instead, it remains on the current url and add the formData params to it. It is also not sensing "POST". What's wrong:

$(document).ready(function() {
  $("#login").click(function() {
    var formData = {username: username, password: password}
    $.ajax({
      type: "POST",
      url: "/login",
      dataType: 'json',
      data: formData,
      success: function (data) {
        var json_x = data;
        alert(json_x['data']);
      }
    });
  });
});
