John Kasich has now dropped out of the presidential race. \u00a0Donald Trump is the only one standing of the original 17 Republican candidates. \u00a0All that\u2019s left now is the coronation.<\/p>\n

From \u00a0Kasich dropping out of presidential race \u2013 POLITICO<\/a>:<\/em><\/p>\n

John Kasich is dropping his presidential bid, according to a senior campaign adviser, one day after Donald Trump became the presumptive nominee and Ted Cruz bowed out of the race.
\nThe Ohio governor had long ago been mathematically eliminated from clinching the GOP nomination outright but had hoped to emerge as a consensus candidate at a contested convention.<\/p>\n

He won only one contest \u2014 his home state of Ohio \u2014 during the primary season, and his final tally of 153 delegates puts him fourth in the race behind Marco Rubio, who dropped out in mid-March.<\/p>\n

\nKasich had said Tuesday night that he would keep fighting, but after Cruz suspended his campaign and Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus declared Trump the presumptive nominee, Kasich apparently decided to end his bid.\n
