2016 US Presidential Election - Former Hewlett-Packard chief executive Carly Fiorina Ends Presidential Bid Wednesday February 10,2016

Carly Fiorina drop out of Republican presidential race

Carly Fiorina ends her presidential bids, one day after finishing seventh in the New Hampshire primary held on Tuesday February 09,2016

Carly Fiorina, the only woman in the Republican field, said she would "continue to travel this country and fight for those Americans who refuse to settle for the way things are and a status quo that no longer works for them."

In a statement Wednesday afternoon, the former CEO of Hewlett-Packard announced she is suspending her campaign after a seventh-place finish in the first-in-the-nation primary state. Tuesday night, Fiorina insisted she’d keep fighting, but on Wednesday, she conceded it won’t be on the trail.
“Election after election, the same empty promises are made and the same poll-tested stump speeches are given, but nothing changes,” Carly Fiorina “I’ve said throughout this campaign that I will not sit down and be quiet. I’m not going to start now.”

Carly Fiorina launched her campaign eight months ago, her second effort to seek elected office after a failed bid to unseat Senator Barbara Boxer of California back in 2010.

Carly Fiorina positioned herself as a tech-savvy leader with a (disputed) rags-to-riches story who would bring private-sector smarts to Washington.

Carly Fiorina was also part of the 2016 primary’s trio of political outsiders, along with Ben Carson and Donald Trump.
