Former Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick will likely drop out of the Democratic presidential race on Wednesday, a person familiar with the matter told CBS News on Tuesday night.
Patrick is expected to announce his decision in an email to supporters. He joined the race late, entering the fray in November, and did not gain any traction. Patrick received little support in Tuesday's New Hampshire primary; with 77 percent of precincts reporting, he has 0.4 percent of the vote.
