MBJ – Luckett announces his run for governor
In a story that will be published in the Mississippi Business Journal Friday, Clarksdale attorney Bill Luckett confirms that he is going to run for governor in 2011.
“I am running,” Luckett told the Mississippi Business Journal Thursday. It’s not that I plan to run or that I am thinking about it. I am running.
“I think my intentions have been pretty widely known for a while,” he continued. “I will probably have a formal announcement some time in the spring, but yes I am running.”
Previously, Luckett’s name had been linked to a possible run as he had formed a Political Action Committee and put out feelers to take the temperature of some of the party’s leaders.
