Fertility Gap

With the elections just around the corner, it might be pretty easy to determine which district is going to which party--just look at the number of children in the district. Republican districts generally have more kids where Democrat districts have less. Don't think that this fact is lost on the candidates either. This article from USA Today mentions candidates who talk kids, kids, kids in their speeches. Also mentioned in a previous post and also in this article, is the fact that Democrat disctricts also have less married couples. Why do you think this is?
