| | Beto O’Rourke has dropped out of the 2020 presidential race.
“Our campaign has always been about seeing clearly, speaking honestly, and acting decisively,” O’Rourke said on Twitter Friday. “In that spirit: I am announcing that my service to the country will not be as a candidate or as the nominee.”
The former Texas congressman struggled to distinguish himself in a crowded Democratic field. Polling averages suggested waning national enthusiasm for O’Rourke’s presidential ambitions, as the candidate fell from a high-water mark of 9.5 percent in April to the low single digits by mid-August.
