** A Longtime Advantage Has Vanished for the Democrats
------------------------------------------------------------
Henry Olsen
National Review
All the talk about candidates often obscures the simple fact that elections are mainly a battle between parties. Recent shifts in partisan voter identification suggest Republicans may be in a better position than they have been for years.
It may surprise readers to learn that the GOP has faced an often-significant disadvantage in baseline support despite frequently winning national elections. Democrats surged into the lead after the Depression and increased it throughout the 1950s and 1960s. Barry Goldwater’s landslide defeat in 1964 could have been predicted simply by looking at the Democrats’ 26-point lead in partisan ID.

University of Maryland economist Melissa Kearney has sparked wide-spread public debate about the decline of marriage and its impact on economic mobility, child well-being, and inequality. Her recent book, The Two-Parent Privilege, offers a data-driven review of marriage’s decline, and what that means for kids. On February 22, she will offer a policy-focused presentation on Capitol Hill, followed by a panel discussion with EPPC’s Patrick T. Brown, Alyssa Rosenberg of the Washington Post, and the Niskanen Center’s Joshua McCabe.
Please join us for a spirited conversation on what—if anything—public policy can do to bolster marriage in the 21st century.
