MANCHESTER, N.H. — Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis dropped out of the 2024 Republican presidential race and endorsed former President Trump two days before the New Hampshire primary.
The Florida governor announced his decision to suspend his campaign in a social media video on X, formerly known as Twitter, on Sunday afternoon.
"If there was anything I could do to produce a favorable outcome, more campaign stops, more interviews, I would do it," DeSantis said in the video. "But I can't ask our supporters to volunteer their time and donate their resources if we don't have a clear path to victory."
"Accordingly, I am today suspending my campaign," said DeSantis, who was a distant third in the single digits in the latest polls in New Hampshire.
