Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson formally suspended his presidential campaign on Tuesday following his abysmal performance in the Iowa caucuses.
“I stand by the campaign I ran,” Hutchinson, who has consistently garnered one percent or less in poll after poll, stated. “I answered every question, sounded the warning to the GOP about the risks in 2024 and presented hope for our country’s future.”
The announcement follows his poor performance in Iowa, coming in sixth place, even behind lesser known candidate Ryan Binkley.
In all, Hutchinson saw .2 percent support in Iowa, or 191 votes, garnering zero delegates.
For months, Hutchinson has maintained a an optimistic tone while bashing the Republican frontrunner, even signaling that he would remain in the presidential primary race until March at least.
