Pete Buttigieg rolled out his second slate of endorsements from his political action committee on Thursday, selecting candidates who are young, running historic campaigns or from traditionally conservative areas.
The former Democratic presidential hopeful said the more than two-dozen candidates reflect the values of his campaign. Buttigieg, 38, ran for president as a political newcomer on a platform of generational change and billed himself as someone who could win over conservative areas, drawing on his Indiana upbringing. He was also the first openly gay candidate to run a major presidential campaign.
