The Democratic Party's Rising Star: Openly Gay Mayor Pete Buttigieg's Run For DNC Chair
The residents of South Bend, Indiana, refer to Pete Buttigieg as Mayor Pete. It’s an affectionate nickname, and his constituents have good reason to love their mayor.
When he first took office in 2011, at the age of 29, South Bend was high on the list of dying Rust Belt cities. Today, the city is thriving with the help of Buttigieg’s innovative ideas and his ability to inspire people to work together to solve problems.
