Four of the five major party presidential candidates and one candidate's spouse will be in Arizona at various times between now and Tuesday's presidential preference primary election.
Their visits come in the wake of a poll this week showing Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Hillary Clinton with double-digit leads in the state. The poll showed high percentages of voters still undecided.
The Merrill Poll, conducted by Bruce Merrill with Phoenix's Westgroup Research, showed Trump at 31 percent, Ted Cruz at 19 percent and John Kasich at 10 percent among Republican voters.
Clinton was at 50 percent and Bernie Sanders at 24 percent among Democratic voters.
Cruz, a Texas senator, spoke in Phoenix Friday and then travel to Cochise County for a tour of the border. His campaign reported that he will be accompanied by former Republican presidential candidates Carly Fiorina and Rick Perry.
Sanders, a Vermont senator, was scheduled to speak at a rally at the Tucson Convention Center Friday evening. The event, Sanders' second appearance in Tucson this year, is free and open to the public.
Trump was scheduled to speak at a rally in Phoenix suburb Fountain Hills Saturday morning and at a Tucson Convention Center rally Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock. The events are free and open to the public.
Former President Bill Clinton will hold a rally in Tucson Sunday, Hillary Clinton's campaign said Friday. Details have not been announced. Hillary Clinton will speak at a rally in Phoenix Monday.
Arizona's Democratic, Republican and Green parties conclude voting for their presidential preferences Tuesday. Early voting has been under way for nearly a month.
Under rules set by the parties, the Republican winner in the state will get all his party's delegates, while Democratic delegates will be apportioned based on percentages of votes.
