Gen Z: A force beginning to shape Maryland politics

At 20 years old, Connor White is the youngest elected member of Baltimore County’s Democratic Central Committee. He’s a Quaker and grew up attending Friends meetings where participants, he said, “were always involved in politics.” “You know, write your congressman about this thing or the other thing,” White said. So, naturally, he kept it up. He said he wants to “help make change” and to “have the central committee be the beating heart of the Democratic party” in the county where he lives.
