2020 presidential endorsements

The race for endorsements is heating up in the 2020 Democratic primary race.

Former Vice President Joe Biden leads the pack with 100 endorsements. Biden is followed by Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) at 10.

As the field has narrowed, a number of Democrats have endorsed candidates who have since dropped out of the presidential race.

Endorsements are highly coveted and can give candidates a boost, helping them bolster their credibility and build momentum in a crowded primary field.
