Generational divide It seems the oft-forgotten, latchkey kid generation is taking back its reign by claiming more than half of Pinal County’s candidates. Boomers followed, making up about nearly one- third of the candidates and Millennials picked up the stragglers representing 13% of candidates. Meanwhile, we’re still waiting for a Gen Z candidate to enter a city or county race.
BABY BOOMERS (60+): 7 GENERATION X (44-59): 12 MILLENNIALS (28-43): 3 GENERATION Z (UNDER 28): 0
