Introduction

Playstyle

Pete Buttigieg is an up-and-coming all-star in the Democratic Party who hasn't shied away from claims to visibility.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Hyper Stamina: Getting around the campaign trail and setting up won't be a problem when you're Pete Buttigieg. Like another Harvard-educated U.S. Veteran (See: Dan Crenshaw) Buttigieg will have little standing in his way in terms of tenacity and dedication. Magnetic Speaker: Buttigieg's appeal to voters will be among the best in the game, thanks to his magnetic stats. Combine this with his stamina and you'll have more than enough means to sway voters across the finish line.

Rocky Start: While Buttigieg doesn't have much in the way of weaknesses, his funds and issue scores will hold him back, meaning he will have to focus on taking advantage of his stamina and charisma to play catch-up.
