Lagging in polls and fundraising, Betty Yee drops out of California governor’s race

FORMER STATE CONTROLLER BETTY YEE dropped out of the governor’s race on Monday, saying she couldn’t see a path to get donors and additional support from undecided voters with six weeks left before the primary. 

“It was becoming clear that the donors were not going to be there,” she said. “Even some of my former supporters just felt like they needed to move on as well.”
