In news from the campaign trail, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker has dropped out of the 2016 presidential campaign amid dwindling financial backing and plummeting support in the polls. In his announcement, he called on other Republican candidates to help “clear the field” and oust current front-runner, Donald Trump.

Gov. Scott Walker: “I encourage other Republican presidential candidates to consider doing the same, so that the voters can focus on a limited number of candidates who can offer a positive conservative alternative to the current front-runner.”

Walker’s withdrawal comes as a new CNN poll shows former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina rising to second place. Trump remains the front-runner with 24 percent support.
