Montana Gov. Steve Bullock has announced his presidential candidacy
Montana Gov. Steve Bullock announced his presidential candidacy Tuesday morning, joining an ever-growing field of twenty-plus Democrats seeking to challenge President Donald Trump in 2020.
His relatively late entry into the race creates some additional hurdles for what was already likely to be an underdog candidacy. He will have to spend a lot of time initially trying to qualify for the first Democratic primary presidential debate in June given the Democratic National Committee’s requirements for the participants to have 65,000 donors or to reach 1 percent in three national polls from DNC-approved pollsters.
Not making the debate stage and then posting a weak fundraising number two weeks later when reports are due could make it even more difficult to gain viability.
