Christie announced the decision from Windham, N.H., on Wednesday afternoon, where he had been scheduled to hold a campaign event.

“It’s clear to me tonight that there isn’t a path for me to win the nomination,” he said. “I want to promise you this, I am going to make sure that in no way do I enable Donald Trump to ever be president of the United States again.”
