Republican Daniel London says he's dropping out of the campaign to replace congressman Ron Lewis in Kentucky's Second District.

London said in a statement on Feb. 7 that it was a hard decision, but after speaking and praying with his wife, that it was the best decision for their family.

London entered the Republican primary just moments before the filing deadline last week.

He had previously worked as Lewis' Chief of Staff, but resigned after filing as a candidate.

London's decision to exit the race clears the way for State Senator Brett Guthrie of Bowling Green to win the Republican nomination.

London has pledged his support to Guthrie.
