'I think the logical thing to say is, I'm going to try to get into the October debates. If I can, I think that's a good reason to keep going forward, and if I can't, I think it's really tough to conceive of continuing.'
New York City Mayor and 2020 presidential hopeful Bill de Blasio said he would drop out of the crowded race on October 1 if he failed to qualify for next month's round of Democratic debates.
At a press conference Wednesday, de Blasio said that it would be"really tough to conceive" that he would continue his run if he did not qualify for two debates in a row. In order to qualify for the October debates, candidates will need to have 130,000 donations with at least 400 unique donors from 20 different states. They also need to poll at 2 percent in more than four national or early primary state polls from Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina or Nevada.

Still, he said he hasn't run out of hope for his run.
