The Democratic governors of the states making up what is known as the Blue Wall launched a bus tour on Friday aimed at ginning up support for Vice President Harris in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Wisconsin.  The Driving Forward blue wall bus tour is set to kick off in partnership with Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) and her Fight Like Hell PAC, along with Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) and Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers (D).  “There’s only one ticket in this race with an economic plan that puts middle class families first: Vice President Harris and Governor Tim Walz," Whitmer said in a statement. "And I’m hitting the road with my friends Tony Evers, Josh Shapiro, and others to make sure every midwestern voter hears it." The tour will start on Monday in Wisconsin and feature vice presidential candidate Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.). The tour will continue through Michigan and feature Whitmer and Shapiro before concluding in Pennsylvania.  The effort is the latest from Harris's allies to boost her in the region. On Thursday, former President Obama campaigned for Harris in Pittsburgh in an effort to drum up enthusiasm for her.  The bus tour comes as recent polling shows Harris and former President Trump deadlocked in swing states, including the Blue Wall states. An Emerson College Polling/The Hill survey released on Thursday showed Trump and Harris tied in Michigan and Wisconsin. The same poll showed Trump leading in Pennsylvania by one point.  The Hill/Decision Desk HQ average shows Harris leading in Pennsylvania by .7 percent, and in Wisconsin by .1 percent. In Michigan, Trump leads by .6 percent.
