Former Vice President Joe Biden and Sen. Kamala Harris, (D-Calif.) kicked off their "Battle for the Soul of America" bus tour Thursday morning in Phoenix.
Biden urged supporters in Phoenix to use their mail-ballots to exercise their rights early.
"The vast majority of Arizonans vote by mail. And those mail in ballots will start arriving in the next couple of days. So Kamala and I are saying the best thing you can do is return your back quickly. Don't risk delays. Return that mail-in ballot as soon as you can." said the former vice president.
Arizona has 11 delegates up for grabs in the November 3rd General Election, making it a key battleground state. President Trump has visited the state six times since the start of the campaign.
Vice President Mike Pence has been here several times as well. Pence was in Yuma as recently as September 19, when he stopped at MCAS Yuma for dinner with his son.
This will be the Biden campaign's first event in Yuma. Up until recently, it has done most of its stumping virtually, or in socially distanced environments.
