Note: I haven't looked at candidate financials, so this is more gut feeling.

Thanksgiving: 11-15. The marginal candidates will drop out in the next two months, but there will still be a lot with enough funding to hang on.

IA Caucases: 6-10. Probably closer to 10, but by now several will have blown through cash with zero hope of making a splash.

Super Tuesday: Biden, Warren, Sanders, Harris, and one dark horse candidate with enough delegates and money to hang on. Probably Pete. I can see Yang still in it, since I assume he can self-fund and he has a dedicated base of donors, but if things go badly he probably call it quits.

Northeastern Primaries: Biden and Warren fighting it out with no presumptive nominee, and Sanders way behind, but still raising funds and stubbornly staying in the race.

If Bernie does particularly badly, by April he may have already "suspended" his campaign, or he's "semi-suspended," keeping the lights on and a skeleton crew, hoping for a brokered convention. So, still technically in, but not really.

Here's my best guesses on which candidates drop out by each date:

Thanksgiving (Nov. 28): 16 candidates left
Bennet
Bullock
de Blasio

Ryan

New Years (Jan. 1): 13 candidates left
Sestak
Williamson
Messam

IA Caucus (Feb. 3): 13 candidates left

Super Tuesday (Mar. 3): 5 candidates left
O’Rourke
Steyer
Klobuchar
Gabbard
Delaney
Castro
Buttigieg
Booker

Northeastern Primaries (Apr. 28): 3 candidates left
Harris
Yang


In other words, I think by 4/28 that Biden, Sanders, and Warren will still be in the race.
