The 360 | 'Mayor Pete' is having a moment, but can he win?
Speed readWhat’s happening? Democratic presidential candidate “Mayor Pete” Buttigieg has captured the national spotlight, but does he have a chance to make it to the White House?
While many of his policy positions are still relatively unknown to Democratic voters, his résumé isn’t: Harvard graduate, Rhodes scholar, naval intelligence officer, openly gay Episcopalian married to a man, fluent in eight languages. And now he can add one more achievement: magazine cover model dubbed “Wonder Boy.”
But critics have pointed out that the small-city mayor’s positions on national and international issues are not fully baked — especially in contrast to more seasoned, better-known competitors like Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders and Kamala Harris. Cash flow, however, doesn’t seem to be a big problem for him. In the first fundraising quarter, Buttigieg raised over $7 million — more money than Warren.
