ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Former Republican Party Chairman Keith Downey is ending his campaign for governor.
Downey’s announcement comes in the wake of former two-term Gov. Tim Pawlenty entering the race. Campaign figures released Tuesday showed Pawlenty had quickly raised $1 million, almost 10 times that of his nearest competitor.
Downey said in his announcement Wednesday that the opportunity for him to win “has closed.”
