ELECTION 2016

The former Texas governor responded to his Democratic rival's claim that he applauded the Supreme Court for gutting the Voting Rights Act in 2013.

The former Texas governor may be best known for his 2012 campaign flameout. This time around, he needs to erase the bad memories.

As he announced his second presidential run, the former Texas governor focused on foreign policy and a slow economy — blaming Obama on both.

Carly Fiorina, who is criticizing Hillary Clinton for lack of transparency, released two years worth of income tax forms. Her net worth: $59 million.

In a video on his website, the former Texas governor said, "It's going to be a 'show me, don't tell me' election, where voters will look past what you say to what you've done."

As a growing slice of the electorate, Hispanics could be key in the Democratic primaries. Hillary Clinton and Martin O'Malley are competing for their support.

Chafee, who is a former governor of Rhode Island, has declared that he's a 2016 presidential candidate, hoping to run against Hillary Clinton's Iraq record.

Clinton's unfavorable numbers were the highest they've been since March 2001.

South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, an outspoken hawk, hopes the economy won't be voters' top concern.

Sen. Lindsey Graham announced his candidacy for president Monday. The senator is largely seen as an underdog in the contest and barely registered in a recent poll of Iowa voters.

Reality TV star and real estate mogul Donald Trump appears to be setting up a run for the White House.

Former New York Gov. George Pataki joins a throng of moderate Republicans vying for the nomination.

In announcing his 2016 presidential bid, former New York Gov. George Pataki highlighted his experiences during the 9/11 terror attacks.

Former Republican Sen. Rick Santorum announced his candidacy Wednesday near his childhood home in Cabot, Pennsylvania.

As voters seem poised to consider more than just social values in 2016, candidates like Rick Santorum and Mike Huckabee could face an uphill battle to join the top ranks.

As Santorum makes another go at the White House, his 3-year-old daughter's health woes will likely once again play a significant role in his campaign's efforts to find common ground with voters.

Skills offer a way for hiring managers to evaluate a job candidate, but Hillary listed none for the American people to consider.

Though the poll usually favors candidates from the conservative wing of the GOP, Huckabee said that participating would "further empower the Washington ruling class.”

With as many as 20 potential GOP candidates, Fox News will use poll numbers to limit the debate. Fiorina and Santorum might not make the cut.

Paul's lengthy floor speech (and his use of social media) may appeal to young voters and libertarians who share his dislike for the Patriot Act.

Republicans don't want to be a punch line again, but the right-wing power base makes it hard to trim the number of debaters.
