The Libertarian Party's vice presidential candidate will be in Greensboro and Winston-Salem on Monday for two events, both open to the public.

Jim Gray, a retired California superior court judge, will take part in an educational talk from 2 to 4 p.m. at Salem College, according to the campaign. Then he heads to Greensboro for a meet-and-greet at Liberty Oak, a restaurant on West Washington Street. That event begins at 6:30 p.m. and runs until 9 p.m., according to a campaign flier.

Gray is running with the party's presidential candidate, former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson. The pair is on the ballot in 37 states, including North Carolina, despite various petition requirements that make it more difficult for third parties to get ballot access.

The party is working to get on the ballot in all 50 states, and Executive Director Carla Howell said it's likely to make it this year.

Monday's event at Salem College is free and open to the public, according to the campaign. The event at Liberty Oak will cost students $25 and all others $40, with proceeds going to the campaign, party spokesman J.J. Summerell said.
