Millennials and the younger Generation Z overwhelmingly disapprove of President
Trump. They also are more racially and ethnically diverse and more liberal than
previous generations, according to the Pew Research Center. But they are more
unlikely to vote than any other age group. People ages 18 to 24 consistently
vote at a rate 15 to 25 percentage points lower than the overall population,
according to a Times analysis of census data.)

presented its report Tuesday on the 2017-18 Fiscal Year, about 19 months after
the close of the accounting period. The 32-page report published by the
Citizens’ Audit Review and Measure LL Oversight Committee has sparked criticism
and concerns by a group of 24 Laguna Beach residents with professional
backgrounds in finance, business, accounting, and auditing who argue the panel
should have at least one certified public accountant with expertise in
auditing. Considering the city’s reported revenues were more than $109 million
in 2017-18, this watchdog cadre says the taxpayers would be better served with
additional experienced eyes on the city’s ledger.)
