It was only recently that former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg decided to bow out of the presidential race. Just days after his campaign suspension, Senator Elizabeth Warren has also announced that she will be stepping back from the presidential race.
Just following the results from the Super Tuesday votes, Politico reports that Warren broke the news first to her staff via a conference call. Although Warren was among the strong contenders to become the Democratic candidate since Sunday, the results of Super Tuesday combined with former vice president Joe Biden’s sudden lead was what brought her to the decision to end her campaign. This now only leaves the public to choose between Senator Bernie Sanders and Biden.
Prior to Warren’s exit, Bloomberg had also decided to bow out shortly after the Super Tuesday results. Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar had also dropped out of the race a week prior. Warren and her campaign team spent the remaining days going over the presidential race, unfortunately failing to meet their projected turnout.
Much like the previous candidates who have already given their support to either Sanders and Biden, Warren is undecided as to who to back in the election for the meantime. “Let’s take a deep breath and spend a little time on that. We don’t have to decide right this minute,” said the senator. She expressed her regret regarding the diverse list of potential Democrat candidates having narrowed down to two white men as opposed to having a woman or a person of color being at least one of the top two remaining contenders, if not both.
There may be a chance that Warren would choose to support Sanders’ campaign, as the two of them have a similar ideology. However, the little strain on their friendship all throughout the campaign may have an effect on who she will ultimately support in the end. Warren also expressed regret regarding the pinky promises she made to the little girls whom she met during her campaign trail.
Many women have also echoed their sentiments about Warren bowing out of the presidential race, as she was the last viable female candidate.
