Mike Pence Makes Surprise Exit From 2024 Race
Former Vice President Mike Pence said on Saturday that he would end his bid for the White House, marking the end of a campaign that had struggled to raise funds or gain major traction in the race dominated by his former boss.
Pence’s announcement arrived with little warning toward the end of remarks given at the Republican Jewish Coalition in Las Vegas, prompting gasps from the audience.
“I came here to say it’s become clear to me that it’s not my time. So after much prayer and deliberation, I have decided to suspend my campaign for president effective today,” Pence said.
