Post #34. With so many rats running for president in 2020 it's hard to keep up with who's in and who's out. Hopefully, this post will help. This thread will be posted each week, likely on Monday, with the dropouts from the previous week and newly declared candidates noted.
Below is a list of declared candidates and their occupation. Below that is a list of dropouts, their occupation and the date they dropped from the race.
Dropout(s) in the past week: None. Several of you have mentioned that Lincoln Chafee is not a Democrat and shouldn't be on this list. Mr. Chafee has been removed from the list of Candidates but has not been added to the list of Dropouts.
Newly declared candidates from last week: Thankfully, none.
Current counts: We're down to 4 declared candidates (3 if you don't include KILLary) and 25 dropouts.
Please let me know via FReepmail if you find errors. Thanks! upchuck

Notes:
The schedule of Democratic debates is here. There will be a debate in April according to the link. No further info.
A calendar of the caucuses and primaries is here. There are a bunch of primaries, convention and caucuses schdeuled this week. See the link for info.
Too bad the DNC screwed over Tulsi.
Why?
I’m wondering which woman the DNC will choose for Biden’s affirmative action VP:
Tulsi - who just got screwed by the rules change?
Amy - who was pushed out of the race to give senile Joe a Super Tuesday win?
Hillary - it’s her turn, and you know she’ll get a promotion by the end of January, 2021, if democrat fraud gives Joe the victory?
I’m not fond of any of those anti-gun, big government liberals, but Hillary is pure evil and the most frightening.
Tulsi is in it to the end.
I'm planning on the post next Mon to be the last one. Shhhh - don't tell anyone. Big secret :)
No offense, but if you skip it no one will notice.
