Bernie Sanders to hold rally in Greensboro

Presidential candidate Bernie Sanders will hold a rally Sunday at the Greensboro Coliseum Complex, his campaign announced Tuesday.

Sanders, a U.S. Senator and Democrat from Vermont, will speak at the free event Sunday evening at the coliseum’s Special Events Center. That facility can handle up to 5,000 people.
