Far-left Democrat presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg is dropping out of the race after a disastrous showing during the South Carolina primary.
Politico reporter Carla Marinucci reported: “Pete Buttigieg to announce he is out of the presidential race, his staff now hearing the news in campaign call, sources tell us.”
“Mr. Buttigieg was trounced in South Carolina’s primary and earned just two percent of the vote from African-Americans, according to early exit polling,” The New York Times reported. “What support he received came mostly from young black voters; he appeared to have barely any votes from African-Americans who are 60 and older, according to the exit polling. Black voters decisively backed former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr., who won the primary; Senator Bernie Sanders and the hedge fund billionaire Tom Steyer drew low double-digit support from African-Americans.”

Buttigieg, who portrayed himself as a moderate Democrat, was anything but that as he held far-left policy views on a wide range of issues.
