CLEVELAND -- A 2004 presidential candidate got married Sunday for the third time.
U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich, a Democrat from Ohio, married his British girlfriend, Elizabeth Harper, in a star-studded event, reported WEWS-TV in Cleveland.
The two exchanged vows Sunday in downtown Cleveland. Actor Sean Penn and actress Shirley MacLaine were on hand, as well as Cleveland City Council President Frank Jackson and Rep. Steven LaTourette.
It's the 58-year-old Democrat's third marriage.
"You told me when you first met her, you had to do this, because the love was so bright. You knew you would marry her if you let your hand down," MacLaine said.
MacLaine and Kucinich are long-time friends, and Penn endorsed the Democrat's long-shot presidential bid.
