Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is deciding whether to continue her presidential campaign, an aide told The Daily Beast on Wednesday. “Elizabeth is talking to her team to assess the path forward,” the aide said. The development comes after the latest round of disappointing finishes on Super Tuesday where Warren not only failed to win a single contest, she came in third in her home state of Massachusetts , behind former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT).
Warren’s campaign manager Roger Lau wrote in a statement on Wednesday that the team “fell well short of our viability goals and projections, and we are disappointed in the results. We’re still waiting for more results to come in to get a better sense of the final delegate math.” He added: “All of us have worked for Elizabeth long enough to know that she isn’t a lifetime politician and doesn’t think like one. She’s going to take time right now to think through the right way to continue this fight.”
