I am not sure what you want to know. Typically there are many candidates in the early primaries and the losers gradually drop out. Sometimes a new man enters the race late. Sometimes as strong candidate hangs back and enters only after "stalking horse" does well in early primaries.

As the primaries continue, the number of presidential contenders usually decreases. Candidates who do not perform well in early primaries or caucuses often drop out of the race due to a lack of momentum or funding. This trend continues until the party nominates a single candidate for the general election.
