Former Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper dropped his bid for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination on Aug. 15 after his centrist campaign failed to catch fire amid two dozen hopefuls seeking to challenge Republican President Donald Trump.
Hickenlooper, who hinted he might instead run for a U.S. Senate seat in Colorado, left the presidential race after it became apparent he didn’t have enough financial backers or support in opinion polls to make the party’s debate stage next month.
