Yup, you read that right. According to The Washington Post, Steyer was set to make the announcement Saturday night in Columbia, S.C. that he was dropping out of the White House race. This comes as a shock to some as it was known that he spent nearly $24 million into his bid!
However, his departure did come after a disappointing finish in the South Carolina Democratic primary. With 56 percent of the vote in, Steyer had just 11.7 percent of the vote — even despite spending millions of dollars on campaigning there. It was said that he finished behind former Vice President Joe Biden and Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders on Saturday.
As this is all still developing, we just got word that Steyers has made a small statement,
“This has been a great experience. I have zero regrets,” Steyer said, CBS News quoted.
