Buttigieg, who announced in 2018 that he wouldn't seek a third mayoral term in South Bend, Indiana, has emerged as a top-tier presidential contender.
After eight years on the job, Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg carried out his last official act as mayor of South Bend, Indiana, on New Year’s Day: Attending the swearing-in ceremony of his successor, James Mueller.
“I’m going to miss being mayor for sure, but also recognize that running for president is something that commands so much of your time and attention that setting aside that juggling I think will be good for the city and good for the campaign,” Buttigieg, who entered the presidential race as a long-shot candidate but has since emerged as a top-tier contender, told WNDU-TV on Tuesday.
A new year brings new beginnings, for us as individuals, for our communities, and for our country. My responsibility as mayor has ended, but the responsibility of 2020 begins. This year, let us resolve to defeat this president, heal a divided nation, and bring on a new era. pic.twitter.com/OojMxowAbFOn Twitter, Buttigieg celebrated the dawn of a new chapter — both in his own life and in South Bend.
