"I feel really good," Crowley said. "The purpose of this bus tour is to meet everybody exactly where they are."

"I never thought I would see my name on the side of a bus, but here we are," Tiffany said. "We are just crisscrossing the state."

Both campaigns are also bringing prominent supporters along for the final stretch.

Crowley has received support on the trail from actress Kerry Washington, who joined his wife, Ericka, for a Women for Crowley rally in Milwaukee. Former Vice President Kamala Harris is scheduled to campaign with Crowley on Monday.

Tiffany has made stops alongside prominent Wisconsin Republicans, including U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson, former Gov. Scott Walker and U.S. Rep. Bryan Steil.

As the candidates travel the state, both are focusing on their closing messages to voters.

"People want somebody who is going to work for them," Crowley said. "A fighter for working-class families; someone who is going to help lower grocery prices and house prices and give better access to health care and make sure we are investing in our children."

Tiffany pointed to his campaign's economic platform.

"I'm for ending the brain drain in Wisconsin, for making us a more prosperous state, and we have a clear eight-point detailed plan to make Wisconsin more affordable," Tiffany said.

With the general election entering its final stretch, the candidates are also keeping up with what has become a memorable few weeks for Wisconsin sports.

"Boy, people have got sports fever right now in Wisconsin, as they should," Tiffany said. "We are winners in Wisconsin, and we want to make sure our state government is a winner also."

Crowley said he was watching the Brewers' comeback win in Game 2 of the World Series from his hotel room.

"When Sal hit that home run, it was incredible," Crowley said. "What Sal did, and with Ashby finishing the entire ninth inning, it was just incredible. I was on pins and needles in my hotel room."

Election Day is Nov. 3.
