CNBC: Julian Castro drops out of 2020 Democratic primary race
Castro made the announcement in a campaign video, which was first published by The New York Times.
After recent low poll numbers and issues with fundraising, this doesn’t come as much of a surprise.
It’s with profound gratitude to all of our supporters that I suspend my campaign for president today.
I’m so proud of everything we’ve accomplished together. I’m going to keep fighting for an America where everyone counts—I hope you’ll join me in that fight. pic.twitter.com/jXQLJa3AdC
