BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — Mitt Romney and Barack Obama aren't the only presidential candidates paying attention to Colorado.

Libertarian presidential candidate and former New Mexico governor Gary Johnson is scheduled to campaign at the University of Colorado in Boulder on Monday night.

Colorado's status as a battleground state has made it a target of frequent visits by the candidates.

This week, Romney and running mate Paul Ryan held a rally at Red Rocks Amphitheatre outside Denver and Obama held a rally at City Park in Denver. Obama is due to visit Colorado Springs on Tuesday.

Obama's visits to Colorado this year have included two stops in Boulder.
