The former mayor of the American city of South bend, Indiana, Pete Buttidzhich, which had all chances to go down in history not only as the youngest candidate, but also the first President of the gay, dropped out of the presidential race in the U.S., said profile.ru
Politician of the Democratic party of the USA, said that withdrawing its candidacy from the race for the nomination for the presidential election in America. The reason was the defeat of Buttidzhichem held in South Carolina primaries. Despite the successful start of the election campaign of Buttidzhichem, in recent weeks, the candidate was expecting the failure. With a small margin he won the first preliminary inner-party elections — the Caucus-goers in Iowa, which took place on 3 February. And last Sunday in South Carolina, 38-year-old candidate for President of America would fail. He was unable to obtain a sufficient number of votes of the delegates. These voices are needed for the candidate to seek the nomination at the party Congress. About such decision of Buttidzhichem it became known two days before the onset of the «super Tuesday» is the key day of the primaries, scheduled for March 3. During this meeting it will become clear who among the Democrats will be the main rival of the representative of the Republican party for Donald trump.
Pete Buttidzhich in turn, said that it no longer intends to nominate his candidacy for the presidency.
«I’m not going to try to become a democratic candidate in the presidential election of 2020, but I will do everything in my power to ensure that in January we will have a new President-Democrat.»
The current President of America Donald trump in connection with the situation, said that the voices that managed to get Buttidzhich during this time in «super Tuesday» will go to the competitor trump, ex-mayor, Joe Biden.
Earlier trump during his speech in South Carolina has proposed to increase the presidential term from 4 to 25 years. Of course, this was said in jest. But at the same time the President noted that the Senate, controlled by Republicans, will make the appropriate changes to the Constitution.
