Sign Touting Amite As Hometown Of Gov. Edwards Misspells 'Governor'

The city of Amite has a new welcome sign near the I-55 exit that features an embarrassing mistake.

The sign touts Amite as the hometown of Gov. John Bel Edwards, but his title is misspelled "govenor."

The sign is covered with a tarp as the Chamber of Commerce works with the company that made it to get a replacement.

It's not clear how much the sign cost, or how much it will cost to make the correction.
