Mayor Pete Buttigieg on the campaign trail

Sometimes, you just know...

ABC News reports, unsurprisingly, that Mayor Pete Buttigieg was voted 'most likely to become president' his senior year in high school.

Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg may have a leg up on his competition in 2020. In South Bend, Indiana, Buttigieg is nearly universally known and nearly everyone seems to have a “Mayor Pete” story.

Katie Kowals, an intake nurse at the city’s Memorial Hospital, said her brother-in-law knows Buttitgieg well, but added, “He was exactly as he is now.”

“You know what else?” she asked. “Mayor Pete was also voted most likely to become president in our yearbook.” In 2000, then a senior in high school, Buttigieg was voted “most likely to become president” at St. Joseph High School.
