U.S. presidential election (9): now a total of 21 politicians declared as candidate for their party’s nomination
On the day that I did a posting explaining that there are now 20 candidates seeking to win the US presidency next year, yet another candidate declared. He is John Kasich, the Republican governor of Ohio.
This makes the Republican field especially crowded with no less than 15 bidders for their party’s nomination. Probabaly all the potential candidates in both parties have now declared. The primaries will now progressively reduce the field.
