The 2020 presidential campaign of Tulsi Gabbard, the U.S. representative for Hawaii's 2nd congressional district, was announced in January 2019, and officially launched in February 2019. Gabbard was the first female combat veteran to run for president. Her foreign policy platform was described as anti-interventionist and her economic platform was considered populist by political analysts.
While Gabbard gained attention in the 2020 Democratic primary debates, her polling numbers remained low and in January 2020, she was polling at about 1 to 2 percent. On March 19, 2020, Gabbard dropped out of the 2020 election and endorsed Joe Biden.
