PM candidate Crabb withdraws from race, endorses May

Conservative MP Stephen Crabb pulled out of the race to be the next prime minister on Tuesday and endorsed front-runner Theresa May as the list of candidates was reduced to three. Crabb, 43, withdrew after he came fourth out of five in the first round of voting, securing support from just 34 out of 330 Conservative MPs. Home Secretary Theresa May secured 165 votes, ahead of Andrea Leadsom and Michael Gove.
