Castro is the first presidential candidate to suspend a campaign since early December, when Senator Kamala Harris dropped out of the race.
The 2020 Democratic primary field, which at its peak had nearly 30 candidates, has been winnowed down to 14 following Julián Castro's exit from the race.
Castro is the first candidate to suspend a campaign since early December, when Senator Kamala Harris suddenly dropped out despite being seen as a top-tier candidate. After her exit, Castro criticized the media for pushing"aside women and candidates of color" in their election coverage.
There are also candidates who have the resources to make a big impact. Bloomberg, who is estimated to be worth $54 billion, is rapidly expanding his campaign and launched a record-breaking $100 million ad campaign. Fellow billionaire Tom Steyer climbed enough in the polls to qualify for the December debate stage ahead of some career politicians.
