NEW: Mike Bloomberg's campaign to begin a massive voter outreach push, with plans to hold more than 2,400 events across 30 states ahead of Super Tuesday, ABC News has learned.
Bloomberg held events in Houston, Oklahoma City and Bentonville, Arkansas, on Thursday before spending Friday traveling through Tennessee. He'll start the weekend in Virginia, before traveling to North Carolina, Alabama, and back to Texas.

Despite his staffing and advertising advantage over some of his opponents – Bloomberg has 200 offices around the country and more than 100 in Super Tuesday states – the former mayor still faces a challenge next week, as he seeks to make a dent in Sen. Bernie Sanders' delegate lead and pull ahead from the rest of the still-crowded field.
The Vermont senator, the frontrunner since the Iowa caucuses, is expected to perform well in a number of states, including delegate-rich California. And a strong showing from former Vice President Joe Biden, who is favored to win the South Carolina primary Saturday, could also complicate Bloomberg's efforts to reach viability across the map on Tuesday, and deny the delegates Sanders needs to clinch the Democratic Party's nomination in the coming months.
