developer Bill Luckett are in the Democratic runoff for governor.
The winner faces Republican Lt. Gov. Phil Bryant of Brandon, and others, in November.

State Personnel Board director Lynn Fitch of Madison and state
Sen. Lee Yancey of Brandon are in the Republican runoff for
treasurer. The winner faces Ocean Springs Mayor Connie Moran.

There are also runoffs for local offices in numerous Mississippi counties.
