MANCHESTER, New Hampshire — Supporters of Bernie Sanders booed and shouted over Pete Buttigieg after the 2020 Democratic White House hopeful took a swing at their candidate.
Buttigieg, 38, during his address at the storied New Hampshire Democratic Party's McIntyre-Shaheen 100 Club Event, ventured into a revised section of his stump speech debuted last week in Iowa in which he dug at the Vermont senator, 78, for his call for revolution.
But the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana's rhetoric earned jeers of "Wall Street Pete!" from those in the socialist's section of Manchester's Southern New Hampshire University Arena, who gave the more center-left contender a frosty reception from the start. Supporters of the mayor countered with cheers of "We need Pete."
Buttigieg also took a jab at former Vice President Joe Biden, 77, after the pair spent the day exchanging blows on the campaign trail. Delaware's former senator for 36 years delivered the first direct hit Saturday morning by releasing a digital ad painting Buttigieg as a small-town mayor.
"Some are asking what business does the mayor of South Bend have seeking the highest office of the land?” Buttigieg indirectly responded.
He added, "Americans in small rural towns, in industrial communities, and yes in pockets of our country's biggest cities, are tired of being reduced to a punchline by Washington politicians and ready for somebody to take their voice to the American capital."
Buttigieg, fresh off a better-than-expected finish in Iowa's Monday caucuses after essentially tying with Sanders, is now a front-runner for New Hampshire's primary this Tuesday.
