In a speech Tuesday night, Bloomberg told supporters that "no matter how many delegates we win tonight, we've done something no one else thought was possible" by becoming a "contender" in the race. Bloomberg had reportedly faced calls from some campaign advisers to drop out of the race after former Vice President Joe Biden easily won the South Carolina Democratic primary, although Vanity Fair also reported he "would consider dropping out after Super Tuesday if there continues to be no path."
