Pete Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Ind., spoke at the South By Southwest conference in Austin in March. By Philip Bump Philip Bump National correspondent focused largely on the numbers behind politics Email Bio Follow April 2 at 2:33 PM Much of the political conversation about the 2020 Democratic presidential primary field in recent days has been dominated by two people who haven’t announced that they’re running.
Wow? Who knows. On this metric, Buttigieg leads former Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, who has not entered the race, and Sen. Elizabeth Warren . Their second- and third-place standing on the social-media-interest-per-article metric didn’t result in variants of the “Interest in ‘Mayor Pete’ is exploding” headline that Buttigieg received.
Buttigieg also has been one of the most-searched Democratic candidates over the past week on Google. Searches for Biden have spiked — also because of those news stories — but Buttigieg is not trailing by much. In last week’s much-heralded Quinnipiac University poll, where Buttigieg received his most support yet — 4 percent — he still trailed Biden by 25 points. Notice, too, that he still trails Warren by a lot, despite outpacing her on “social media interactions by article.” And despite her third-place standing on that metric, she’s only in fifth in the RealClearPolitics average.

He is? Never heard of him. Most likely another media darling being groomed and elevated by the MSM and Liberal Progressives to ensure every box is checked according to their core beliefs which are theirs alone and not America's Majority.
I ♥️ Pete!!!!!
Pete Buttigieg is losing the Internet for what that’s worthless — which remains clear. TheWashingtonCommunistPost FakeNewsMedia Deocrats Communist EnemyOfThePeople
Nothing against Pete Buttigieg, but just consider that name. Imagine astronaut Neil Armstrong was named Neil Armweak instead. I somehow doubt he would have been selected to be the first man on the moon.
Winning the internet! Wow! Great analysis by the Amazon Washington Post!
If he won, wouldn’t that just trigger the hell out of the Magites
Pete could be closest to candidate to perfection
Wait till America sees him in a debate. It won’t only be the internet he wins over at that point.
Actually it’s people looking up the pronunciation to his last name.
Lol no, he's not
if you all continue to say so then I guess it must be true.
Means nothing! He’s out of touch with mainstream Democrats!
Omg I am living for PeteButtigieg He is so insightful & intelligent! I would love to interview him on behalf of the millennials!!
It's a place to start! I hear about him on the internet...then I buy his book...then I donate! PeteForAmerica
You think? You haven't got a lot right lately though, right?
Isn't Twitter 80% from outside USA? What % of REAL American voters do people have the potential of reaching on Twitter? Would be great to know the answers.
🤡
Keep it up! MayorPete2020
There is no 'the' Internet.
