L
abor Commissioner Mark Costello has endorsed Howard Houchen, Republican who seeks to oust Senator Jerry Ellis from the southeastern Oklahoma Senate District 5 seat he holds.
Costello said Houchen is the type of conservative Republican needed in the Legislature.
Ellis is term limited and if reelected, would have to give up the seat in 2014.
