Tim Walz to deliver closing campaign pitch in Flagstaff and Tucson

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz was set to campaign in Arizona for a final time on Saturday as the 2024 presidential race enters its final days.

Walz for the second Saturday in a row will visit the Grand Canyon State, where he’ll deliver a closing argument for the Democratic presidential ticket just days before votes are tallied on Nov. 5.

More than 1.2 million Arizonans have already cast their ballots in the historic election between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris.

Walz will campaign across the state during his Saturday visit, arriving at 12:15 p.m. in Flagstaff for a 1 p.m. campaign event before flying south to Tucson for a 4:30 p.m. rally. The Harris-Walz campaign declined to share the venues where Walz will appear.

Trump running mate JD Vance also was set to appear in Arizona on Saturday for a rally in Scottsdale.

Trump and Harris are locked in a contentious battle for the White House in battleground Arizona, where 11 Electoral College votes are up for grabs on Tuesday.
