People who have been eager for the 2020 campaign to get rolling can rejoice. Politico has announced that the wait is over.

People often wish for all sorts of things to come early, like summer, the end of a workweek, and pumpkin spice lattes.
Those who have been eager for the 2020 campaign to get rolling can rejoice as Politico notes that the wait is over.
The publication reports that Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, who is deemed a potential 2020 contender, made a Monday appearance at an event held in a Manchester, New Hampshire strip mall. 
He was there to support fellow Democrat Joyce Craig for mayor, characterizing the race as, “the most important…in the country,” but, according to Politico, also spent some time interacting with the crowd. 
While it seems rather early for Democratic nomination hopefuls to be emerging, even if only in terms of rumors and likelihoods, it’s not unreasonable to imagine that those intending to run would want to make themselves known early.
The primary is expected to be overflowing with hopefuls in various stages of their political careers, notes the New York Magazine.
Possible candidates thus far include well-known politicians like Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren. 
There’s also been discussion of potential efforts from many who have not yet achieved household-name status, including Representative Tim Ryan of Ohio, who attracted some attention for suggesting House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi step down.
