South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg Drops Out of Presidential Race!!
South Bend mayor Pete Buttigieg is ending his Democratic presidential campaign.
The announcement came the day after the results of the South Carolina primary and two days before Super Tuesday.
Buttigieg’s claim to fame was being the first openly gay major presidential candidate.
He is expected to return to South Bend, Indiana, tonight to deliver a speech about the suspension of his campaign.
Pete Buttigieg outperformed Warren in IA, NH, NV, and SC and still dropped out before she did…

Thank you for inviting me into your homes, sharing your stories, and putting your trust in me. We launched our campaign because Americans are hungry for a new kind of politics that brings us together.
And together we'll beat this president and build the era that must come next. pic.twitter.com/QDajvx1lpL

Thank you Mike Bloomberg for supporting @joebiden. You are living up to your promise to help Democrats defeat the worst president in modern history. You showed the strength and selflessness of Amy Klobachar and Pete Buttigieg and I am grateful.
