The Republican presidential campaign is making its way to Arizona this week, or at least the vice presidential part of the ticket is.

Mike Pence is scheduled to appear at a rally at the Phoenix Civic Plaza Tuesday night at 7 p.m.

This will be the Indiana governor's first appearance in Arizona since he joined Donald Trump on the Republican ticket two weeks ago.  Pence is also scheduled to be in Tucson earlier on Tuesday.

The campaign would not discuss how attendees can get the opportunity to submit and ask questions at the town halls.

"All that will be worked out tomorrow and that’ll be fully explained tomorrow once everybody arrives," said Brian Seitchik, the state director for the Donald Trump for President campaign in Arizona.

In addition to Pence, local political leaders like Sheriff Joe Arpaio and Arizona Republican Party Chairman Robert Graham are also expected to attend.

Al Macias, former KJZZ news director, retired as KJZZ's news director in 2022. He rejoined the station as a features reporter in 2023 and also as a part-time editor in 2024.
