Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson drops out of 2024 race after poor Iowa finish

Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson suspended his 2024 presidential campaign Tuesday morning, just one day after the Iowa caucuses, in which he garnered 0.2% support and finished in sixth place.

“My message of being a principled Republican with experience and telling the truth about the current front-runner did not sell in Iowa,” he said in a statement. “I stand by the campaign I ran. I answered every question, sounded the warning to the GOP about the risks in 2024, and presented hope for our country’s future.”
