WHEELING, W.Va. (AP) – Former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich is set to speak at Wheeling Jesuit University.

Gingrich’s speech about the 2016 presidential election is scheduled for Tuesday at the school’s Troy Theater in Wheeling.

During his visit, Gingrich and his wife, Callista, also plan to attend a reception hosted by the Most Rev. Michael J. Bransfield, bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston.
