Actually, these days they do not. This is just a metaphor. But the expression goes back to the era in the 1800s when boxing was very popular; to make it known that someone wanted to challenge a boxer to a fight, the man would throw his hat into the boxing ring. Today, the expression survives, but not literally, since most men do not wear hats any more; actually throwing one's hat into a boxing ring is no longer a common way to issue a challenge to one's potential competitor. Thus, when candidates decide they want to announce their candidacy for office, the media may say that Candidate X is "throwing his (or her) hat into the ring," but it's just an expression.

When does a candidate throws his or her hat in the ring?
First, it should be noted that this is a metaphor-- an idiom that describes a behavior no longer used in society. More than a hundred years ago, when upper-class men wore hats, there may have been an actual custom that symbolized entering the political "ring" (the metaphor comes from boxing, where one person challenged another by throwing his hat into the boxing ring). These days, hats are not as common, nor is throwing them. Potential candidates in politics decide they want to run for a higher office, such as senator or president, and the media use that old expression of "throwing his (or her) hat in the ring" to convey the idea that the person has decided to enter the race and will try to win it. Candidates have different reasons for making the decision to run for office, and they announce their candidacy in different ways, but the expression about hats can still be seen, especially in the print media.
