Democrat Cory Booker has dropped out of the presidential race after failing to qualify for the December primary debate.

The U.S. senator from New Jersey had struggled in polling and fundraising since launching his bid last February.

Booker was unable to hit 5% support in a single qualifying poll required to make it on the January debate stage.

He says he will campaign for whoever the eventual Democratic presidential nominee turns out to be.
