Sean Parnell (R) is suspending his Senate campaign in Pennsylvania, “hours after a judge ruled against him in a custody battle that included allegations he had physically and verbally abused his wife and children,” the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.
Said Parnell: “There is nothing more important to me than my children, and while I plan to ask the court to reconsider, I can’t continue with a Senate campaign.”
“His decision capped a rapid collapse for a candidate who, after being endorsed this summer by former President Donald Trump, was once viewed as the GOP front-runner in the nationally watched race to replace Pat Toomey.”
