The 21 Democrat candidates

Stuff has a story looking at the 21 candidates from the Democratic nomination for 2020.

I thought it would be interesting to analyse them as a group. Here’s the breakdown.

• Gender – 15 men and six women
• Age – three in the 30s (35 is minimum age), six in 40s, six in 50s, four in 60s and two in 70s
• Area – Northeast eight, West seven, Midwest three, Southwest two and Southeast one
• Ethnicity – White 14, Black three, Asian one, Latino one, American Samoan one and Native American one
• Highest office held – one Vice-President, two Governors, one Cabinet Secretary, seven Senators, six House members, two Mayors and two others
