The oscarsowhite criticism. Leo keeps up the momentum as he looks to claim his first oscar. Im trouble humbled by this. Sold to the highest bidder. A retired Police Officer trying to keep his k9. He might be auctioned off because hes considered state property. How people are helping them stay together, today, january 31st, 2016. Announcer this is today, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. Im erica hill. Glad to have you with us. It is polling from the Des Moines Register, thats a good indicator of how the caucuses will go in that state. Donald trump has 5 points ahead of ted cruz. Hillary clinton 3 points ahead of Bernie Sanders. Theyre basically neck and neck. We have full coverage and analysis for you this morning. We begin with nbcs Hallie Jackson covering the republican race from des moines. Halle, good morning. Reporter good morning, erica. For donald trump this poll represents a 15pointed turnaround since september. Nearly half of likely caucusgoers say even now they could be convinced to change their minds. If they do, its ted cruz that could stand to benefit the most. Flying high for now, its donald trump on top, the day before the caucuses in iowa. Where the latest poll shows he leads ted cruz by 5 points. The numbers were so good for me, which im happy about. Reporter but trumps acknowledging turnout will matter mormon night. It all doesnt matter if you dont caucus monday. Reporter his closest rival here, ted cruz, says he has volunteers making 20,000 phone calls to potential caucusgoers. Were just wanting to know if we can count on you to caucus for cruz on monday. Reporter cruz has slid recently, a sign trumps attacks may be working. The most effective one, according to new polling, not on his canadian birthplace. He borrowed a lot of money, as you know, from Goldman Sachs and from citibank. Reporter cruz failed to fully disclose his loans from big banks. But trump has his problems too, including his support for eminent domain. Cruz had been hitting him on that. This raice is a dead heat, neck and neck. Its an effectively a twoman rice. Reporter marco rubio would beg to differ. Weve done well here and were looking forward to New Hampshire and doing well there. Reporter ahead of the other establishment candidates in iowa, even as robe eubio downpl talk he could have a second place finish. Im confident that when this process is finished and the delegates are counted, were going to have more than half the delegates and well be the republican nominee. Reporter donald trump is taking to twitter to hit ted cruz over mailers his campaign sent out with voting violation on them. Theyre a common practice to get people out to the caucus, similar to ones used in the past. The bottom line about all of this, guys, both campaigns know turnout will be the key to winning tomorrow night. Hallie jackson, thanks. To the democrats now, where the race is apparently so close, no one is sure exactly what will happen tomorrow. Nbcs Kristen Welker has more on that. Kristen, good morning. Reporter craig, good morning to you. The democratic race is anyones to win here in iowa. Secretary clinton does have a slight lead, but shes not taking anything for granted, and Bernie Sanders isnt letting up. The Democratic Candidates crisscrossing iowa late into the night saturday, with just hours to go. For Hillary Clinton, it was all hands on deck. I am so proud to support my mom. She is the single best change maker i have ever known. Reporter husband bill and daughter chelsea helping deliver the final pitch she was thank you, bill. Thank you, chelsea. Reporter clinton is entering the home stretch with a boost. Saturdays Des Moines Register bloomberg poll shows her with a slim lead over rival Bernie Sanders, and the New York Times endorsed her. I hope we will persuade you to join us in making progress for the country. Reporter earlier in the day, clinton tried to turn the page after the state department determined 22 emails from the former secretary of states private server were top secret, clinton telling nbc news she didnt generate them. This is an interagency dispute. And its playing out in public. And i want to resolved. Reporter senator sanders is still riding a wave of insurgent excitement, buoyed by their excitement. It doesnt look like a fringe campaign tonight. Reporter now the battle being waged in campaign war rooms. Clinton and sanders have both built up armies o volunteers, ready to fight, determined to win. I havent seen this excitement in so long. Its got to be something about this crazy old guy, right . Were here to help democrats and to hopefully get Hillary Clinton elected president. Reporter senator sanders could win iowa if young voters turn out in force, as they did in 2008 for thensenator barack obama. He won that group by a margin of 4 to 1. Sanders and clinton have another relentless day of campaigning that will last into the night. Kristen, thank you. Chuck todd is moderator of meet the press. He is also in iowa. Chuck, good morning. Good morning, erica. The big unknown we keep talking about is how many people will actually show up. Weve been hearing from our reporters on the ground, the Trump Campaign is making a push to remind people at rallies how to register and how to vote. Is there a sense that that is having an impact . We dont know. We havent seen the evidence of an upturn in Voter Registration on either side. Look, high voter turnouts are good for Bernie Sanders with the democrats and trump with the republicans. Ive talked to these first time caucusgoers. The Cruz Campaign believes theyre going to win and that theyre still ahead, because theyre skeptical of these first time caucusgoers. Ive talked to them. Some of them have not voted in any election in 20 years. So thats why the skepticism is there. You think, boy, are they going to get up, go through this process, make sure they get to the caucus location on time . You can get there at a specific time or they lock the door and you cant get in. Trumps whole reliance is on a bunch of people who have never done this before. Chuck, turning to the democrats, what does a second place finish for Bernie Sanders in iowa mean for his campaign moving forward . I think it means that he will be a tough challenger for Hillary Clinton. But its hard to imagine how he could ever overtake her. You cant sort of make the democratic nomination fight a true one on one battle thats neck and neck the whole time if you cant knock her off here. If you cant beat her here, then outside of New Hampshire, where else is he going to beat her . If he starts making inroads in south carolina, nevada, he will convince democrats, wow, he pulled off an upset in iowa. New hampshire is one thing, thats his next door state. But pulling it off here i think could catapult him. Its a mustwin for sanders, to be honest. Whats the headline Tuesday Morning . What are we talking about Tuesday Morning after the caucuses are over . Well, if its look, were going to be talking about donald trump, lets be realistic, right . Its Donald Trumps world, were just lucky to live in it sometimes. No, it will be about whether trump is for real or not, craig. If he wins, its panic time for real for the republican establishment, because i think hes going to be very hard to stop. But if he loses, then all of a sudden, that seed of doubt is planted into whether the trump phenomenon was all a mirage. So much to look forward to, right . Its going to be a busy what did we say, 35 hours or so . But whos counting . Well be sedated. That comes Tuesday Morning, chuck. Well look for you this morning on meet the press. Chucks guests include ted cruz, marco rubio, and breezy. Today has you covered on caucus day. Well be live from iowa tomorrow morning. Dylan, the other headline on Tuesday Morning could be whether they get that snow in iowa, right . It could be a blizzard on tuesday, we could be exploring some interesting runin the at the airport on monday night. Through the day on monday, well see just increasing clouds. Temperatures across the state will be running in the upper 30s, lower 40s, everythings fine. Then we get into monday night and tuesday. Thats when the blizzard warning kicks in. Notice the southeast part of the state not under the blizzard warnings. Thats where well most likely see rain. If you head south, youll be able to make any sort of flights. But if youre in the des moines area anywhere across central and northern iowa, were looking at very gusty winds, as much as 9 to 12 inches of snow. Waterloo looks like one of those areas where well see the jackpot. Well see interesting conditions monday night into tuesday, thats the time frame when well see our worst conditions as far as snow is concerned. Dylan, thanks. To california, three dangerous criminals are back in jail after they escaped last week. The final two were captured on saturday, one day after their fellow inmate turned himself into police. Steve paterson is live with more. Steve, good morning. Reporter craig, for eight days those escaped inmates managed to stay at least one step ahead of more than a dozen Law Enforcement departments in the state of california. But it only took the quick thinking of one citizen in San Francisco to alert police and bring them d down. For Law Enforcement in california, it was like waking up from a bad dream. One of a sheriffs worst nightmares. Reporter after a week of anxiety and a state of excitement, a chance to exhale. The entire state can breathe a sigh of relief. Reporter all three men who broke out of jail back in custody. Hossain nayeri and Jonathan Tieu captured 400 miles away in this San Francisco parking lot. Police credited the quick thinking of a bystander who spotted the stolen van and alerted officers. As police approached, Hossain Nayeri fled on foot but didnt get far. He was apprehended without further incident. Reporter police found Jonathan Tieu inside the van along with 380 rounds of ammunition. It was clear to us these people were armed and dangerous. Reporter a day earlier, bac duong turned himself in. Investigators zeroed in on Hossain Nayeri as the possible mastermind. Police say despite speaking english, he enrolled in an english as a second language class with teacher nooshafarin ravaghi. She was arrested on thursday, held on suspicion that she provided maps that may have helped the men escape. We do know it was much closer and much more personal than it should be. Reporter nooshafarin ravaghis neighbors say they cant believe it. It was quite shocking to see she would even have any part of it. Reporter now the three inmates and the teacher may find themselves on the same side of the law and behind bars. Officials with the Sheriffs Department here say there hasnt been a jail break in more than 30 years, and that theyve already made significant improvements to the jails security system.

Growing up, there were moments, like the friends mother who called after a play date.

We are back on a sunday morning with one womans vision to help other women recover financially and emotionally after being divorced or widowed. As sheinelle tells us, these women are finding their strength in one another. Reporter business is booming for joan, a realtor who actually has more clients, not because she sells their houses, but because she helps them stay in them. I would go out to their home with my little listing agreement. They would be in tears. And we would have a conversation. And they would reveal that in fact they didnt want to sell their house. Reporter most of joans house are women with one thing in common, either going through a divorce or recently widowed. Invariably they were being told they had to sell, there were no choices, the house had to go. I would bring in a loan originator to figure out if they could stay, and nine times out of ten, they could. Reporter she realized there was a trend, not just that these women needed help managing their homes, but they needed a lifeline too. Whenever anyone tells you you cant do something, maybe its time to say, why not . Reporter joan decided to start the Wildflower Group to help other women like herself. It provides workshops and support for women like herself, starting over. Over time we can manage the risk for you. Reporter amy spearman sought help from the wildflowers.

The sharing of stories and the inspiration of just knowing that people get through it. Ive probably made a lot of progress this year.
