Tim Scott, Lone Black Republican Senator, Drops Out of 2024 Presidential Race

Senator Tim Scott of South Carolina has announced that he is dropping out of the 2024 presidential race, stating that voters have made it clear that they do not support his candidacy at this time. Scott's decision comes after a lackluster performance in the GOP debates and a decline in his poll numbers, while former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley has risen in early-state primary polls. Scott has indicated that he will not endorse any of his former rivals and believes voters should make their own decisions.
