as posted by the channelHillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister said he's withdrawing from consideration after President-elect Donald Trump nominated him to head the Drug Enforcement Administration.
Chronister made the announcement about 72 hours after Trump nominated him for the position.
"To be nominated by President-Elect Donald J. Trump to serve as Administrator of the Drug Enforcement Administration is the honor of a lifetime," Chronister said. "Over the past several days, as the gravity of this very important responsibility set in, I’ve concluded that I must respectfully withdraw from consideration."
In the statement, he wrote that there is still work for him to do as the sheriff in Hillsborough County. He said he is committed to the role and continuing to work on initiatives he's started on the local level.
"I sincerely appreciate the nomination, outpouring of support by the American people, and look forward to continuing my service as Sheriff of Hillsborough County," Chronister said.
