Governor Jay Inslee abandons the 2020 race

Washington Governor Jay Inslee on Wednesday abandoned the race for the 2020 presidency. In an interview with MSNBC, he said that he knew he would not end up in the White House. "It has become clear that I will not carry the ball. I'm not going to be president, so I'm going out of the race tonight, "he said. However, he said he believes America will "get things done" in the face of climate change, a major issue in his campaign. "We started to see that climate change should be the first job of the United States," he said. "I felt very good saying that from the first days of my campaign, I felt very good saying that now." Two people close to Inslee told the Associated Press that he intends to pursue a third term as governor.
