I think, as a prosecutor, Klobuchar would have been even less likely to win the African-American vote than Buttigeig would.

Most African-American voters either don't vote, or hold their nose and vote for Buttigeig in the primaries, despite his being gay, as they see Klobuchar's being a prosecutor as the bigger sin (which is why in a head-to-head with Harris against any non-Klobuchar/Biden candidate, she'd also lose the African-American vote).

Buttigeig narrowly wins a majority of pledged delegates, and wins at the convention on the second or third ballot after the superdelegates (who can't vote on the first ballot) break in his favor.

He'd probably lose to Trump, largely because he'd fail to pick up Georgia, and he'd fail to win back any Midwestern state other than Michigan.
