Gary Johnson is reportedly finally doing what he’s been hinting at for weeks: leaving the Republican presidential primary fight and running for the Libertarian nomination.

From Politico:

The former two-term New Mexico governor, whose campaign for the GOP nomination never caught fire, will make the announcement at a press conference in Santa Fe on Dec. 28. Libertarian state directors will be informed of Johnson’s plans on a conference call Tuesday night, a Johnson campaign source told POLITICO.
