Thank you to all 1,194 of you who voted for our campaign.
We loved visiting with all of you on the phone, in your home, and at many
events. Also, thank you to so many who donated and volunteered whether
those people lived in the district or not.
Let's continue to work to make Jackson and White Counties great places to
live and work. I will continue my work with Big Brothers/Big Sisters, the
Substance Abuse Prevention Committee, and the like. "There's only one
thing that can guarantee our failure, and that's if we quit.” We will not
quit. Let's visit soon. Please feel free to email me (lj@ljbryant.com) or
call me (870-376-4458).

State House of Representatives District 58. In the age of term limits, there
is no time to waste learning the system. My past experience in the

me to immediately put my experience to work for us.”

Methodist Church, Kiwanis, the Iron Mountain Regional Arts Council Board of
Directors, and Every Child is Ours. Bryant is active in the Newport Chamber
of Commerce serving on the Tourism Committee, Beautification Committee, and

Bryant has worked as a business and political consultant, motivational
speaker, and owns a family farm outside of Grubbs.
