Michigan’s Senate seat is up for grabs, and it’s shaping up to be a fiercely competitive race — even without Pete Buttigieg in the mix.
“I care deeply about the outcome of both races, but I have decided against competing in either,” the former transportation secretary wrote in a post on Thursday. “My party has a deep and talented bench here in Michigan, and I am certain that we will nominate an outstanding candidate for each office.”
The New York Times reported that Buttigieg is eyeing a 2028 bid for the White House.
