RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Former President George W. Bush is set to host a fundraiser for Virginia Republican gubernatorial hopeful Ed Gillespie.
The Roanoke Times reports that the former president and wealthy businessmen will host Gillespie at a Dallas fundraiser Wednesday.
Gillespie was White House counselor under Bush, who donated $25,000 to Gillespie's political action committee last year.
Tickets for the Wednesday luncheon range from $1,000 to $25,000.
Gillespie is facing state Sen. Frank Wagner and Corey Stewart, a one-time chairman of Donald Trump's Virginia campaign, in the GOP primary.
