More than two-dozen candidates made a bid for either the Republican or Democratic nomination for president in the 2020 election cycle, making for especially crowded Democratic debate stages. But in the end, there can only be one nominee for each party.
Here are the candidates who have dropped out of the race so far, ending their bids for the White House.
Democrats
Sen. Michael Bennet, D-Colo. -- Bennet, who ran as a moderate, stayed in the race until New Hampshire but struggled to gain any traction. He left the contest on Feb. 11.
Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J. -- Booker was one of the higher-profile senators to run for the Democratic nomination, but he couldn't find a break-out moment on the campaign trail or on the debate stage to attract attention to his campaign in the crowded field. Booker dropped out before the Iowa caucuses on Jan. 13.
Gov. Steve Bullock, D-Mont. -- Bullock tried to make the case that he, a Democratic governor of a red state, was the best candidate to beat Trump. Democratic voters disagreed and he ended his campaign on Dec. 2.
Julian Castro, former HUD secretary -- The only Latino in the field was bumped off the Democratic debate stage by increasing polling requirements and couldn't find the money to get back on. He dropped out on Jan 2.
Bill de Blasio, NYC Mayor -- De Blasio was widely mocked during his presidential run for his poor approval rating in New York and didn't even make it through the summer. He suspended his campaign on Sept. 20.

Deval Patrick. That is the one who terrified Donald Trump. We caught a break. /sarc.
Joe Walsh, former Illinois representative — The former Tea Partier and current radio host said he would rather support a socialist than Trump as he suspended his campaign on Feb. 7.

What a joke.
[[But in the end, there can only be one nominee for each party.]]
Until several liberal candidates band together and ‘identify as a single candidate’
Didn’t CNN once say Michael Avenatti was once considered “a possible early contender” for the Dem nomination?
Someone said he was considering it, he’s the biggest joke of all.
Being a criminal under indictment he is fully qualified for Congress.
One of the paragraphs (I cannot remember which one, there are so many) said ‘so and so dropped out, leaving Tulsi Gabbard the only MINORITY left’??? I didn’t know she was classified as a minority! What is she, other than a woman?
And who bought their way into the 2020 dnc circle jerK so far?
Bloomberg for one....
The losers.
What do I win?
I always thought it funny, that Stormy Daniels attorney, suddenly showed up as an attorney for one of Kavanaugh accusers.
I think her dad is an American Samoan.
I think Tulsi is of Samoan or some other Pacific Islander ethnic background?
In the Democrats mindset, they are always cognizant of what grievance group you can claim to be a member of.
I didn’t know she was classified as a minority!
= = =
SHE = minority

The bottom dropped out.
That’s right. She’s 1/4 Samoan (an American colony)
Best comment:
Lizzie Warren is waiting until they get down to three, so she can surge and come in third.
I think she qualifies as a woman of color because of her Hawaiian tan.
