breaking right Now, Senator Amy Klobuchar has announced that she is just spending her campaign and I want to get right to our deputy political director at ABC News, Mary Alice Parks, with a little bit more on this.

Adverbs of degree

And we were talking before we came on live, a bit of a surprise that she didn't wait for Super Tuesday and a surprise that she is saying she's definitely going to endorse Joe Biden.

Adverbs of manner

I think that's probably gonna end up being the biggest part of this announcement if we take a step back like she did come in sixth in the last two contests, really at the bottom of the pack.

So even though she started out strong in Iowa, had a surprising strong showing in New Hampshire, she really just haven't been able to expand her base of support in the last two states.

We know that she was running out of money and really just running out of time, But what's interesting here is her state of Minnesota was one of the 14 states going on Super Tuesday, and many people thought, look, if she could just hang in there and she could win her home state then she can, you know, stake her claim on something, some kind of victory to collect, delegates going, moving forward.

But does this indicate Mary Alice that there's really a lot of pressure behind the scenes to coalesce behind Joe Biden after the big win in South Carolina?

There was more and more concern among Democrats that Tuesday was gonna look like an incredible fracturing of the party.

Remember, there's a very strict 15% threshold in all the states, So the candid does not meet 15% of the vote across the state or any Congressional district.

So that means that someone like a Bernie Sanders could really run up the score if all the other candidates took 12% of the vote, or 13% of the vote.

 So I think the pressure is on right now for some of these other candidates to get behind Joe Biden and really prop him up and help get him over that threshold.
