OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. — Gov. Kevin Stitt endorsed Congressman Markwayne Mullin ahead of his runoff primary election for U.S. Senate.
Stitt threw his support behind Mullin about a week before the U.S. representative’s runoff primary against former Oklahoma Speaker of the House T.W. Shannon. The two are vying for the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate, filling a seat that Sen. Jim Inhofe has held.
The governor announced his endorsement during an event with the Oklahoma City Fraternal Order of Police.
The winner will face Democrat Kendra Horn.
