Bryant, Luckett get celeb help in Miss. gov’s race

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — In the Mississippi governor’s race, Democrat Bill Luckett is getting help from an actor who played God and a blues singer who makes glittery custom guitars out of mufflers and toolboxes.

Now, Republican Phil Bryant is set to get a financial boost from a hard-living crooner who’s in the Country Music Hall of Fame.

George Jones will perform a concert Saturday night at the Ocean Springs Civic Center to raise money for Bryant’s campaign for governor. The campaign said tickets for the one-hour show are $250 each.
