Suspending a campaign
Candidates seeking the Democratic or Republican nomination can suspend their campaign.
Candidates who have suspended their campaigns are able to direct their pledged delegates to support one of the other candidates for the nomination at the convention.
These delegate-votes may serve as a bargaining chip if the candidate wants the promise of a job in the eventual nominee's possible future administration.
