Former congressman Doug Ose is ending his recall bid for California governor after suffering a heart attack.
A statement released Tuesday by Ose said he was treated for a heart attack late Sunday in Sacramento.
"While I’m told I should expect a full recovery, additional procedures and potentially surgery are required, and it has become clear that I must now focus my attention on rehabilitation and healing. Sometimes you have to do things that you don’t want to do. It is what is: my campaign for governor is over," Ose said in a statement.
