Garcetti says he'll probably decide on 2020 within the first three months of 2019:

Bullock is moving fast

Bullock IMO has a shot to win Iowa, getting support from Tom Miller helps and we'll see what the congressional delegation and Governor are like in a couple months. If Biden, Bernie don't run it clears a lane with white rural voters there. Harris, Gillibrand, Patrick, Booker are all exceptionally poor fits in Iowa. Warren is definitely in play too.

This would be huge and Bullock's best bet. Win in Iowa, gain momentum and then win either New Hampshire or Nevada (doubt he has a shot in South Carolina).

NH more likely IMO, SC only if he's somehow managed to push out all candidates by then which is nigh impossible. You never know though.

Without a clear frontrunner it gives a sleeper Iowa and NH winner a solid  chance of being someone who quickly takes off. Of course someone like Bullock would have to concentrate state by state before taking off but that's how it works. He also would not be toxic to the establishment like Sanders would have been had he won both states.

Someone like Kamala Harris or CCM to help with minority turnout.

Gillibrand asked about 2020, and dodges the question:

The Des Moines Register runs down all the 2020 non-denials at the state fair, including McMullin:

Interesting that this seems to imply that Announcement Season could start as early as mid December. Which in my admittedly  short political memory has not happened.

Though it does leave him wiggle room to *decide * in December and announce in mid January.

Depends on what counts as announcements.  In the 2008 cycle, we got a bunch of exploratory committees being started as early as November 2006.  And exploratory committees are pretty much the same as launching your candidacy IMHO.  Though there are fewer exploratory committees these days, since the candidates rely more on PACs to do the same thing.

If 2019 holds true with 2015 and the first debates are in August/September, but all the candidates announce in December-March, that's going to be brutal.

So many random people are considering a run. Is it always like that?
