Spartacus Drops Out

On Monday, 2020 Democrat presidential candidate Cory Booker (dubbed as Spartacus), dropped out of the race.

“It was a difficult decision to make, but I got in this race to win, and I’ve always said I wouldn’t continue if there was no longer a path to victory,” he told supporters. “Our campaign has reached the point where we need more money to scale up and continue building a campaign that can win — money we don’t have, and money that is harder to raise because I won’t be on the next debate stage and because the urgent business of impeachment will rightly be keeping me in Washington.”

According to NBC News, “Booker polled at about 2 percent nationally, according to the RealClearPolitics polling average, and was knocked off the debate stage in recent months.

“Booker joins author Marianne Williamson and former Housing Secretary Julián Castro as candidates who have departed from the race this month.
