Embattled Nevada Sen. John Ensign (R) will resign from office “soon” according to two senior Republican sources, a move that comes amid an ongoing ethics investigation into his conduct.
Ensign’s resignation, which was first reported by Las Vegas Sun columnist Jon Ralston, comes six weeks after he announced his plans to retire at the end of his current term, which expires in 2012.
One senior GOP source said Ensign’s official resignation would come in May.
