The objective is to examine the profile of young candidates in comparison with that of non-young candidates, based on the following variables: gender, race, education, marital status and party ideology. For comparative purposes, the research uses data from the Superior Electoral Court relating to the results of the 2016 and 2020 elections, evaluating only those elected. The research methodology was supported by procedures derived from descriptive statistics, which allow establishing associations between variables based on the absolute values and percentages existing in the differentiation markers between young people and non-young people. The research concluded that there are significant differences between young councilors in relation to candidates from other age groups, which indicates that there are changes in the socio-political profile of those elected throughout the country's generational transition observed in recent decades.Acesso AbertoAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Participação política da juventudeEleições municipaisPerfil sociopolítico de candidatos jovensYouth political participationMunicipal electionsSociopolitical profile of young candidatesDissertaçãoCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::CIENCIA POLITICAINSTITUIÇÕES POLÍTICAS E POLÍTICAS PÚBLICASCIÊNCIA POLÍTICA
