GOP presidential candidates to visit Alabama

Associated Press
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — Alabama will soon be visited by two Republican presidential candidates and one potential candidate.
Republican Party officials say former Godfather's Pizza chief executive Herman Cain will speak to the Shelby County Republican Party's summer dinner on July 16 at the Cahaba Grand Conference Center in Birmingham.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who's considering entering the race, will address the state Republican Party's summer dinner Aug. 12 in Birmingham. A party spokeswoman says the demand for tickets has caused the party to switch the location to a larger ballroom at the Sheraton Birmingham.
Lt. Gov. Kay Ivey says former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney will hold a fundraising reception Aug. 30 at The Club in Birmingham. Tickets are $1,000 and $2,500 per person.
Alabama's presidential preference primary is scheduled for March.
