Pete Buttigieg 2020 presidential campaign

Bernie Sanders won New Hampshire's presidential primary on Feb. 11 night, edging moderate rival Pete Buttigieg and scoring the first clear victory in the Democratic Party's chaotic 2020 nomination fight.

The unexpected candidacy of the relatively unknown former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, Pete Buttigieg, for the US presidency last April sparked all sorts of debate. It tended not to focus on his positions on the issues concerning America and the world, but rather on his sexual orientation.

Pete Buttigieg has built his campaign around the idea of generational change.
Until launching his presidential campaign in January 2019, Buttigieg was a relatively obscure mayor of South Bend, a city in Indiana of just over 100.000 people, as New York Times reports.

A surprising result of the primary election in Iowa. Technology problems and reporting "inconsistencies" kept Iowa Democratic Party officials from releasing results from Monday's caucus, the much-hyped kickoff to the 2020 primary, AP reported. Contrary to expectations, former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg has come to the fore.

On the eve of the Iowa caucuses, Democratic presidential candidates hustled across the state trying to fire up voters and make a last appeal to those struggling to make a final decision about their choice in the crowded field.
