The Latest: Cruz praises supportive Wisconsin radio hosts
Apr. 3, 2016 10:02 PM EDT
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the 2016 presidential campaign, with the focus Sunday on Wisconsin, which holds its primaries Tuesday (all times Eastern Daylight Time):
9:30 p.m.
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is giving a shout-out to conservative talk radio hosts in Wisconsin who are supporting his campaign.
Cruz says they are "smart and engaged and willing to stand up and speak the truth."
Cruz's rival Donald Trump gave interviews last week with three radio hosts, all of whom oppose his candidacy.
He hung up on one of them, Vicki McKenna, who served as emcee of Cruz's nighttime rally in Eau Claire. Two other radio hosts who last week aired combative interviews with Trump were also hosting rallies for Cruz in Green Bay and in Milwaukee.
Wisconsin's influential conservative talk radio hosts have helped energize the anti-Trump movement in Wisconsin.
9:20 p.m.
Bernie Sanders is disputing the Democratic National Committee's debate rules, saying his and Hillary Clinton's campaign previously agreed to not hold debates on Fridays, Saturdays or holidays.
Sanders spokesman Michael Briggs says Sunday debates were allowed.
The DNC says the campaigns had agreed to debate on weekdays — not holidays or weekends.
Both candidates want to debate before the April 19 presidential primary in New York. But when to debate has become a topic of debate.
Sanders' campaign wants to do it next Sunday in conjunction with NBC, MSNBC and Univision.
They say Clinton's proposal for an April 15 face-off on ABC's "Good Morning America" would been seen by a smaller audience.
