(South Bend, IN) - The former mayor of South Bend has dropped out of the race for president.
Pete Buttigieg said he set out to make a difference and shattered expectations
from a previously little known political figure from the Midwest.
The decision by Buttigieg, who did not seek a third term mayor, came after winning
the democratic presidential caucus in Iowa and finishing a close second to Bernie Sanders in
New Hampshire.
Buttgieg did not fare nearly as well in South Carolina on Saturday and faced a grim outlook in the
upcoming Super Tuesday states.
