Tim Scott dropped out of the presidential race
Senator Tim Scott, who competed for the nomination for the presidency of the United States from the Republican Party, withdrew from the election race.
Scott announced his campaign suspension on Fox News' Sunday Night in America just two months before voting begins at the Iowa caucuses.
In addition to ending the campaign, he has emphasized that he does not plan to endorse another candidate for the Republican Party nomination and has ruled out running as the 2024 Republican National Vice Presidential candidate.
Scott is originally from South Carolina and has served as a senator since 2013. He launched his campaign in May. The AP notes that Scott, in particular, has struggled in the polls despite millions of dollars spent on his behalf by high-profile donors.
