Folks are waiting outside the Cox Business Center in downtown Tulsa to see Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders speak at a rally this evening.

It is Sanders' only scheduled stop in Oklahoma ahead of next Tuesday's Super Tuesday primary election.

The doors at the Cox Business Center don't open until 4 p.m., but that has stopped hundreds from gathering outside.  

Bernie Sanders' campaign says the event is free and is on a first-come, first-served basis.  He is expected to touch on issues common at all of his campaign stops so far, making college affordable, getting big money out of politics and combating climate change.
