Poll after poll after poll shows that Secretary Pete Buttigieg is the most popular contender for President Kamala Harris’ VP! They’ve been working together already for almost 4 years. Pete can hit the ground running on day one. This is THE ticket for the win! #HarrisButtigieg2024

If Pete Buttigieg became VP, he could end up casting a tie-breaking vote in the Senate to pass the Equality Act! Imagine the power of that. @VP Harris would be thrilled for her administration to accomplish such progress for LGBTQ+ people! 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️ #Pete4Veep #HarrisButtigieg2024

“Betting odds show that Pete Buttigieg is the favorite to be selected as Kamala Harris' candidate for vice president. The U.S. Secretary of Transport could be the second name on the Democratic Party's ticket. He is the bookmakers' favorite… oddschecker puts his odds at 39/5.”

VP Harris’ main concern is how to win the Electoral College. Leaked internal White House polling data from 6/30/24 showed Pete Buttigieg could win the EC. (h/t @chelswhitl) Buttigieg wins every other poll I’ve seen of swing states since then too. #Pete4Veep #ButtigiegHarris2024
NEW: Harris is close to finalizing a VP pick. A source close to the campaign has said “Harris primary consideration is not who can excite the base … The question is how do you get to 270 electoral votes and is that impacted by the choice that you make?”.

I get the chessboard/battleground state thing, but I can't believe that if people were actually paying attention to arguments and debate, Pete Buttigieg wouldn't be the VP nominee. He's doesn't regurgitate talking points. He knows and believes his stuff and zeros in for the kill.

The GOP fascist who’s opening an investigation into Tim Walz’s education-related activities in China is Rep. James Comer. He mocked Dems for being concerned about Trump receiving $5.6 MIL from China *while he was POTUS* & about Trump’s secret Chinese bank account. 2020 flashback:

Another reason Pete Buttigieg would be a perfect running-mate for VP Harris: he can praise her work in the Biden/Harris administration from first-hand knowledge. He’s worked with her for 3 1/2 years! Also makes for a particularly smooth transition in January! #HarrisButtigieg2024.

For those wondering why Pete Buttigieg’s strength in swing states (& with swing voters across the country) is being suppressed or downplayed by so many media outlets. They only finally give an inch when social media explodes & they look foolish for ignoring. #HarrisButtigieg2024.
@SecretaryPete Pete Buttigieg’s specialty is converting Republicans into Democrats LONG-TERM. Here’s an example. I can’t begin to estimate how many people I’ve heard this same story from, either about themselves or a relative. GOP knows this & is running psyops against him & manipulating media.

Some #SlayerPete history ⤵️! Pete Buttigieg worked for the Afghanistan Threat Finance Cell. (Dari is one of his 8 languages.) He also worked as an armed driver in combat zones from Kabul to Bagram. This background earns respect from swing and GOP voters btw. #HarrisButtigieg2024
@MC34625297 Pete also has nerves of steel after adapting to working as an anti-terrorism intelligence officer inside a shipping container in Kabul with bombs going off nearby regularly. I recall he said in an interview that the verbal attacks he gets in politics are easy compared to that.

Pete’s so much more popular in the South than most people realize! A #HarrisButtigieg2024 campaign would break all the records — fundraising, crowds, volunteers, the works. Bringing in new voters, motivating people to get to the polls… This is how we WIN. #Pete4Veep #PeteBforVP.
In 2020, 3,000 people showed up for a Buttigieg rally in Nashville, TN—the largest turnout for a Democrat in the state since Al Gore. Pete has a remarkable ability to connect with people across the political spectrum. If chosen as VP, he would help, not hurt, the ticket. #VPete.

Yes, I will say this ⤵️ a million times if necessary, because people keep saying Pete Buttigieg is so brilliant & talented that “He’ll be president someday,” but right now we can’t even let him be VP because Other People are homophobic. That literally increases systemic bigotry!.
@Shay4341 @TrekkiesforPete Pete already has the highest name recognition of the VP contenders, & the highest net favorability, including in swing states & among independents & GOP Never Trumpers. Omitting our best politician in decades from the ticket would be a grave error. He can inspire massive turnout.

.@PeteButtigieg gives a perfect answer here! I ❤️ that he mentions #disabled people even when not specifically asked about us. It’s ridiculously rare, especially among politicians. I’ve heard him refer to abled people as “temporarily abled” too. He gets it! #Pete2020 #CripTheVote.

As far as I know @PeteButtigieg remains the only #Dem2020 candidate who employs people with known, visible disabilities in his campaign. Still waiting to see some #DisabilityInclusion from the others. Just FYI, I’m a wheelchair-using double amputee. #RepresentationMatters to me!.
Working the long game. @PeteButtigieg and #TeamPete running a very smart campaign. Oh and:. ". campaign now employs 240 staffers, 37% of whom are people of color and 28% of whom are LGBTQ. A majority are women.". #PeteforAmerica #WinTheEra.
