| Description | Despite assurances that the outcome of the Republican U.S. Senate primary would not alter his plans to run as an independent, John Wood announced Tuesday he was ending his campaign.
The reason: Former Gov. Eric Greitens did not win the GOP nomination.
“I made the decision to run for the United States Senate when Eric Greitens was the favorite for the Republican nomination,” Wood said in an email to supporters. “That would have been unacceptable, embarrassing, and dangerous for my party, my state and my country.”
Missouri “no longer faces the risk of Greitens as our next U.S. Senator,” Wood said. |
