Another one bites the dust....
 
Liz Warren has officially dropped out of the race!

When will the crying start from avid followers?

More importantly, what will she (and the other "dropouts") do with all that leftover campaign money? Surely they've got a nice tidy sum stashed away?

It's still all regulated by the FEC and can't be used to promote another candidate directly.

There are loopholes they use to get around the regs.
Bernie used them in 2016.
Named his wife to some finance position to pocket a %

Every campaign add is subject to a 10% brokerage commission.
Care to guess who was Bernies broker 🤔
No doubt he’s not the only one that does it.

Is her withdrawal better news for Bernie than it is for Biden? Her and Bernie were splitting the progressive vote?

Probably better for Bernie but who knows, everyone thought Biden was done before Tuesday, likely to be a contested convention and that helps Cheeto.

Too soon to tell. She’s going to endorse whoever looks to have things locked up but she’ll have a list of demands.

If Joe can keep the momentum it’s his to lose but it’s not going to be an easy road.
