"Irwin and Denise Weinberg were sure the neighbors could hear them
yelling at each other one recent evening. Denise, a lifelong Republican,
was trying to convince her husband, a Democrat-turned-independent, to
vote for Donald Trump.

“I don’t want to talk about it!” Irwin shouted at his wife.
“I’m going to bed,” she fired back.

Welcome to divided marriage in 2024.

There isn’t a lot of data on politically mixed marriages, but
researchers believe the numbers are declining in the U.S. According to
the most recent analysis from the Institute for Family Studies, a
conservative think tank, just 21% of American marriages were politically
mixed in 2020, down from about 30% in 2016. Of the current mixed
pairings, just about 4% were between Democrats and Republicans—most
couplings included an independent.

People’s political views have become fundamental to their identities in
recent years, says William Doherty, who co-founded the nonpartisan
Braver Angels nonprofit after the 2016 election, out of concern for the
tone of political discourse. Donald Trump didn’t start this shift, but
his political rise has coincided with increased polarization. A marriage
and family therapist for decades, Doherty says the first time he heard
of a spouse wanting to divorce because of politics was in 2016."
