Sources: John Kasich to drop out

(CNN) John Kasich is dropping out of the Republican presidential race, two sources familiar with the plan confirmed to CNN.

Kasich's decision came after he improbably became the last challenger to Donald Trump, who emerged as the presumptive GOP nominee Tuesday night when Ted Cruz dropped out.

Even before winning his home state of Ohio in March, Kasich was facing pressure to get out of the race, with no clear path to victory.

His campaign never became more than a spoiler run, designed to keep Trump from getting the 1,237 delegates needed to win the nomination before a contested convention.

  1. Again, the big question. Will he throw his delegates to Trump, or keep on the spoiler train?

  3. Trump has 1,047 Delegates right now and there are 520 available. If Donald Trump does not win the primary then you can be guaranteed there is corruption in the Election process!

    Kasich only has 153 so that is not exactly enough to push him over the edge. Just keep your eyes open for some dirty politics.

  5. 2:50, I agree, but it would give him 1,200, which really close to the 1,237 needed. Will Lyin' Ted hold out to be a spoiler, or just show some class and RNC loyalty and support the obvious winner here?
