Former Governor of Maryland Martin O'Malley announced he's dropping out of the race for the Democratic presidential nomination.
It was just the day before that -- the Sunday before the Iowa caucuses -- that he posted a plea to voters to YouTube.
"Iowa I challenge you to do what you've always done best," he said in the video. "I need your help. I want your vote."
O'Malley failed to gain traction in the polls in a field that was dominated by Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.
He had trouble with fundraising, too. The Washington Post reported earlier Monday that the campaign took out a loan late in 2015 to keep the campaign afloat. O'Malley ended the fourth quarter with less than $200,000 cash on hand.
