U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders plans to visit Charlotte on Monday, a few hours ahead of Democratic rival Hillary Clinton’s visit to the Queen City.
Sanders’ campaign announced Saturday that the Vermont senator will be at PNC Music Pavilion for a late afternoon rally. Entry to the venue begins at 1:30 p.m. RSVPs are requested.
Sanders visit is his first to Charlotte and comes after Friday’s visit to the Triangle.
Charlotte will be ground zero for the Democratic race Monday, a day before Tuesday’s presidential primary. North Carolina will be one of five key states, including Florida, Ohio, Illinois and Missouri voting that day.
