Republican presidential candidate John McCain will be in Albuquerque on July 15 for a town-hall meeting, according to his campaign Web site.
McCain will apparently spend the night of July 14 in New Mexico, because he’s also holding a private fundraiser a week from today at the Albuquerque home of car dealer Ken Zangara.
The town-hall meeting will be held at Hotel Albuquerque in Old Town, according to McCain’s Web site.

To RSVP, contact Kelly Rzendzian at (505) 440-7421 or krzendzian@mccain08hq.com.
