The Martha & Mike Show Here in Arizona Tomorrow (In a Series of Private Events)

Looks like former female pilot Martha McSally - nominated to fill-in the unexpired term of fail-safe deceased John McCain, needs a media-exposure boost to bolster her chances to get elected on her own record. . . with an expected hyper boost by Vice-President Mike Pence.
Both with appear side-by-side tomorrow to inject themselves into Arizona politics with some mutual stumping.
Here's some details by Dylan Smirth taken from AZ Mirror https://www.azmirror.com
VP Pence coming to Arizona to bolster McSally   

"Vice President Mike Pence will join U.S. Sen. Martha McSally in Arizona this week at a series of private events in Green Valley, Phoenix and Scottsdale.
Few details have been released about the trip.
Pence is scheduled to take part in a fundraiser for McSally in Phoenix on Wednesday, and a roundtable discussion at a Scottsdale church Thursday morning with a group of Hispanic leaders.
The vice president will promote the Trump administration’s United States-Mexico-Canada trade agreement at a meeting in Green Valley later that day.
The event will not be open to the public.
While McSally’s office said that the trip is not campaign-related, Arizona Democratic spokesman Brad Bainum blasted Pence for “making a fundraising trip to bail out unelected Sen. Martha McSally.”
The Republican, who was appointed to the Senate after losing the November 2018 election to Krysten Sinema, faces an election next year to hang on to her seat, with Mark Kelly, husband of former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, as her likely Democratic opponent. . .

McSally has closely allied herself with President Donald Trump from the beginning of her 2018 Senate campaign, despite earlier attempting to leave some distance between herself and the White House when she held a Southern Arizona congressional seat.
Pence’s visit, even if not nominally connected to her campaign, is an opportunity for McSally to display her Trump-supporting credentials to members of Republican factions that might be wavering in their support of her.
