Former Washington Governor, Gary Locke, to be Named as Commerce Secretary

:: Gary Locke is the third nominee for this post, and will be named tomorrow. From MSNBC:

A senior administration official says President Barack Obama's likely pick to head up the Commerce Department is former Washington Gov. Gary Locke.

Locke will be Obama's third pick to lead the department. Republican Sen. Judd Gregg withdrew his name from contention on Feb. 12, citing "irresolvable conflicts" over the president's massive stimulus plan.
