The 2020 Candidates: Mayor Pete Buttigieg

On May 23, The Washington Post’s Robert Costa sat down one-on-one with Democratic presidential candidate Mayor Pete Buttigieg. Mayor Buttigieg discussed the issues that are driving his campaign, how he hopes to set himself apart from a crowded field, and why he believes a 37-year-old mayor of a midsize American town is qualified to be the next Commander-in-Chief.

Buttigieg's interview will also marks the premiere of The 2020 Candidates, The Washington Post Live's one-on-one interview series featuring the candidates.
