By Veronica Stracqualursi and Kristen Holmes | CNNFormer Vice President Mike Pence has suspended his campaign for president amid lagging poll numbers and financial challenges.He announced the suspension while speaking at the Republican Jewish Coalition’s annual conference in Las Vegas on Saturday.Pence’s theory of his candidacy was simple – he broke from then-President Donald Trump on January 6, 2021, and refocused on the core conservative principles that founded the modern Republican Party with Ronald Reagan, his political beacon.Pence returned to that idea throughout his White House bid, from campaign signs intentionally harkening back to Reagan’s 1984 campaign to speeches urging his party to turn away from populism.His exit from the 2024 race shows today’s GOP has long left that kind of conservatism he represents, reshaped by Trump, who continues to be the dominant candidate in the race, despite his legal troubles.Pence, who was Indiana governor and a US congressman before being ...
