    Question

    Junior Senator from New Jersey and former Newark Mayor Cory Booker declared his Democratic presidential primary candidacy early in 2019, bringing a strong resume and an impressive number of endorsements from New Jersey politicians. As of mid-July 2019 he stands at around 2% in the polling averages. It is still early, but the field is crowded and many other strong candidates have a path to the nomination.

    New Jersey's primary will be in the very last round of voting, on June 2, 2020, less than two months from the party convention.

    Will Cory Booker have dropped out of the Presidential race before voting opens in New Jersey's primary election?

    This resolves positive if before the 2020 New Jersey Democratic primary, Cory Booker has claimed to no longer intend to participate in as a candidate in the 2020 presidential elections. The 2020 New Jersey primary is currently scheduled for June 2, 2020, but this could change. Resolution should be supported by credible news reports.
