Jon Huntsman will drop out of the Republican presidential race on Monday.

The former Utah governor has been polling behind comedian/write-in candidate Stephen Colbert in South Carolina, the next state to hold a primary vote.

He joins Herman Cain and other hopefuls who have dropped from the race after being unable to knock Mitt Romney from his frontrunner status.

According to multiple reports, Huntsman will endorse Romney at tomorrow’s press conference.
