A look at what each of the campaigns has built on the ground makes it clear who the top three candidates are. Biden, Warren, and Sanders are all going to be in this race for the long haul. The interesting contest is for the fourth candidate. Pete Buttigieg has cooled off quite a bit in recent months, but he still has a strong fundraising base which he is pouring into field organization. Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) has been up and down momentum wise, but she has a decent field organization in the early states.
