Former Rhode Island Governor Lincoln Chafee is ending his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination, he said Friday.

Chafee is the second ex-Republican to quit the Democratic race after failing to gain any polling or fundraising traction in a contest dominated by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who's taken an increasingly liberal tack in the primary, and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, a self-described socialist.
