John F. Wood’s resignation is effective Friday. The resignation was confirmed Wednesday by Steve Crim, a political consultant working with the group formed to back Wood as a Senate candidate, johnwoodformo.org.

The committee launched a website on Monday urging Wood to run for retiring GOP Sen. Roy Blunt’s seat. The website called Wood a “principled leader who has put country over party when the stakes are highest, and is committed to serving the people of our state with integrity.”
