Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has been a failure in his current role and hails from Indiana. Naturally, Michigan Democrats have decided this would make him perfect to be their governor.

Buzz is building for Buttigieg to take over in Michigan after Gov. Gretchen Whitmer as the Biden administration winds to a merciful end. Buttigieg is still seen as a Democratic star and future presidential prospect, and so naturally, Democrats want to slot him into office somewhere so he can continue to stick around on the political scene. Enter Michigan, where Buttigieg moved after his failed 2020 presidential run.
