Ah okay, well, that’s because Markdown itself does a simple “tabs to spaces” before processing your file.
You should not explicitly wrap your pre-formatted text in <pre>, instead indent it by one tab or four spaces. This will make it appear as-is (raw) in the resulting HTML.
Generally you should not use HTML tags in Markdown documents.
