Steve Sailer's perspicacity is like a fine wine, starting off good and getting even better over time.

In a Reuters-Ipsos two-way generic 2018 mid-term congressional ballot (N = 61,712), Republicans garner 53.9% of the married vote compared to only 34.3% of the unmarried vote.

Republicans get 47.3% of the vote among men of any marital status compared to 42.6% among women of any marital status.

The marital gap is 19.6 points. The gender gap is just 4.7 points.

Okay, the post's title is hyperbolic. Gender matters some, but matrimony matters a lot more--over four times as much.

Tearing down borders and tearing down marriages are both quite good for the left's electoral prospects.
