Here’s everyone who’s running for president in 2020, and who has quit the race
Soon after assuming the office of the presidency in January 2017, President Donald Trump filed preliminary paperwork that laid the groundwork for re-election in 2020.
With the first official votes in the primary over seven months, 23 Democratic contenders are already lined up to challenge Trump — making for one of the largest and most diverse primary fields in recent history. So far, an additional four Democrats have dropped out of the race.
While California Rep. Eric Swalwell dropped out of the presidential race to run for re-election in the House on July 8, billionaire Democratic activist Tom Steyer— also from California — jumped into the race less than a day after, pledging to spend at least $100 million on his campaign.
