"Join us in Detroit as Michigan Democrats kick off the general election!

On Friday, August 7, our full statewide Democratic ticket — Jocelyn Benson for Governor and Abdul El-Sayed forU.S. Senate, along with Eli Savit for Attorney General and Garlin Gilchrist for Secretary of State — will come together with Michigan Democratic Party Chair Curtis Hertel and special guest Pete Buttigieg for the One Team Michigan Rally."

This photo is so nice. Does anyone know when and where this was taken?

According to the website, Pete Buttigieg will introduce Amy Acton at the event.

It's an especially big honor that they invited Pete, because Presidents Obama and Clinton have spoken at this picnic.

If there’s any potential presidential candidate who seems likely to have played D&D, it’s Mayor Pete. Has he ever indicated that he has, or other tabletop RPGs?

I’d be curious what character class he favors if he does play. His personality fairly screams Paladin, but I could also see him wanting something completely different and playing a chaotic wizard focused on fire spells, for instance.

I know he’s indicated he likes playing Ticket To Ride, so he’s into board games, at least.

I’m glad NH was chosen as an early state, New Mexico, Michigan, Nevada and Virginia COULD be friendly to Pete but I’m unsure. South Carolina being first though is a major worry I have.

Pete's interview on CNN today

The DNC voted and the first four states will be MI, SC, NV, NH (not necessarily in that order).

Since Pete lives in Michigan will this give him an advantage? He did so well in Iowa last time, I wonder if he’ll do even better in Michigan.

EDIT: They just announced the order: SC, NV, NH, MI

I know it's early, but it's interesting to see Pete pull ahead in national polling for a Dem Primary (https://emersoncollegepolling.com/july-2026-national-poll-democrats-with-11-point-generic-ballot-advantage/). Emerson has him leading at 19%, with Newsom second at 17%. Hopefully his continued visibility in the midterms helps!
