Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine will make a campaign stop at Sunnyside High School on Thursday for a get-out-the-vote rally.

The Tucson event, as well as planned speech in Phoenix earlier that day, follows a visit by his running mate, Hillary Clinton, in Phoenix on Wednesday.

Kaine’s remarks in Phoenix will be completely in Spanish, a Clinton spokeswoman confirmed.

Clinton’s campaign has ramped up its efforts in Arizona in the last few weeks, with visits by Clinton surrogates Sen. Bernie Sanders, first lady Michelle Obama and Clinton’s daughter, Chelsea.

Kaine, a senator from Virginia, is expected to address the crowd by 6:15 p.m.

Doors open at 4 p.m. The school is at 1725 E. Bilby Road, near South Campbell Avenue and East Drexel Road.
