Sen. Elizabeth Woman is planning on dropping out of the 2020 presidential race, and after The New York Times first reported the news, people started sharing a group photo of the female Democratic presidential candidates at the start of their campaigns.
Warren was the last woman with a fighting chance in the presidential election and was once a front-runner for the nomination.
In dropping out of the race she will follow in the footsteps of senators Amy Klobuchar, Kamala Harris, and Kirsten Gillibrand, and self-help author Marianne Williamson. Rep. Tulsi Gabbard has yet to drop out of the race, but she is consistently at the bottom of the polls.
When news broke that Warren was dropping out, people started sharing a photo from a Vogue feature from July 2019, titled "Madam President? Five Candidates on What It Will Take to Shatter the Most Stubborn Glass Ceiling."
Photos for the story were taken by Annie Leibovitz, and the main image shows Warren, Harris, Klobuchar, Gabbard, and Gillibrand smiling and high-fiving.
People now are reflecting on the image on Twitter from the early stages of the primaries, applauding the women for their campaigns.

The amount of strength in this photo is in-freaking-credible. Never underestimate the power of a group of women fighting for change. Thank you to each and every one of these women for paving the way and inspiring the rest of us. https://t.co/mhbVveZK1B

Seeing this pic again just broke me. Several smart, strategic, WORTHY women in this race, and we are down to two septuagenarian white men with not an actionable plan between them. What the (and I cannot stress this enough) FUCK is wrong with us?! https://t.co/eHuiW8jlcl

The glass ceiling is very much intact. Sigh. https://t.co/61DKEOL03Q

IMHO, none of these qualified women got nearly as much credit and consideration as they deserved. My heart is broken that none of them made it. I'll scream and cry for a while, and then I'm gonna work even harder with y'all to help fix our broken, misogynistic society. ๐ญ๐๐บ๐ธ https://t.co/7Bj1Jh0i0K
