Trump was most recently in Arizona on Aug. 18 when he visited the border wall and hosted a campaign event in Yuma.
Arizona is widely considered a battleground state and Trump’s challenger, Democrat Joe Biden, has held a slight lead in polling over recent months.
An OH Predictive Insights poll released in early August found Biden up 49%-45%, but it was the third consecutive poll the Republican incumbent had whittled down the difference.
In a similar poll in July, Biden was ahead 49%-44%. In May, he led 50%-43%.
Trump will also make three campaign stops in Nevada as part of the trip.
