Nick Kristof is officially out of the race for Oregon governor and will not appear on the May primary ballot as a candidate in that race. The former New York Times columnist quit his job to run for Oregon’s top job. On Thursday, the Oregon Supreme Court issued an opinion affirming Oregon Secretary of State Shemia Fagan’s determination that Kristof cannot legally vie for the governorship because he does not meet the state’s three-year residency requirement. Kristof joins us to talk about what’s next for him.
