Kasich Drops Out of GOP Race, Paving Trump’s Path to Nomination

HeadlineMay 05, 2016

Ohio Governor John Kasich has dropped out of the Republican presidential race, all but sealing the nomination for Donald Trump. Kasich’s campaign had initially said he would remain in the race after Texas Senator Ted Cruz dropped out following a loss in the Indiana primary. But Kasich reversed course on Wednesday.

Gov. John Kasich: “You see, I have always said that the lord has a purpose for me, as he has for everyone. And as I suspend my campaign today, I have renewed faith, deeper faith, that the lord will show me the way forward and fulfill the purpose of my life. Thank you, and God bless.”
