Former Indiana mayor Pete Buttigieg, who is running in the same moderate lane as Biden, is also on the ground, arguing it is time to turn the page to more forward-looking, galvanizing leadership. The contest to see who challenges Trump in November's election is a months-long slog, and those with minimal support have been peeling off. Former congressman John Delaney dropped out Friday.

Trump's Senate impeachment trial has effectively tethered them to Washington, but the proceedings adjourned Friday after the chamber's Republican majority rejected Democratic efforts to subpoena witnesses and documents.For two weeks, the senator candidates have been campaigning with one hand tied behind their back, sending surrogates including relatives and high-profile lawmakers to campaign in their stead.

Among them is Stephanie Hull, a 21-year-old student who came to see Biden in the small town of Burlington."I have a few other favorites right now, so it's going to be down to the wire."
