Been out early this morning pushing hard for those final votes tonight. It really is a fight to the finish especially for Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders who are in a statistical tie. Clinton, im told, rallied her biggest iowan town last night and shes counting on loyal supporters, older women while sanders has spent significant time rallying young votes in college town. For these two, it comes down to voter turnout. I have a large voter turnout. If thousands of people many of whom have given up on the political process. Many young people who have never participated in the political process, if they come out, were going to win. You go to caucus tomorrow night, youre not only selecting a president you are selecting a commander in chief. I am a better candidate and thanks to you, i will be a better president. On the gop side donald trump woke up to a fivepoint lead over his chief rival, ted cruz. Analysts say trump is having success drawing evangelical voters away from cruz which is a key group for the texas senator. He is fresh off a high Energy Speech from last night and the latest poll shows him a solid eight point ahead of marco rubio who told voters at a town hall, quote, its not about who you like most about who gives the gop the best chance to take back the white house. We are going to win the state in the general election. We are going to turn america around we need to take power out of washington and back to we, the people. That is what this campaign is all about. You havent had a winner in iowa in 16 years. Were going to have a winner, you Better Believe it. Another thing im hearing from our team on the ground is that a number of candidates including new jersey governor chris christie, well, theyre leaving iowa ahead of tonights caucus voting which begins at 7 00 central time and 8 00 standard and making their way to New Hampshire when a week from tomorrow the first primary will be held. Live in the digital operations center, katy zachry. The Iowa Caucuses get under way at 8 00 evening and our time and the final poll shows just how close this contest is. The final republican poll in iowa shows donald trump with 28 support. Hes leading ted cruz by five points and theyre followed by marco rubio and ben carson. On the democratic side, Hillary Clinton has a threepoint lead on Bernie Sanders. Since thats within the points fourpoint margin of error, the contest is a statistical tie.

The countrys largest and most popular tenmile race is just around the corner and starting today, you can enter a lottery to participate in this years bluecross broad street run. Joining me this morning is jim moreno, the director of the race. Thanks for being with us. A pleasure. First, lets talk about the process in term of the lottery and how people can register. The lottery opened up as of today and we go until february 12th at 11 59 p. M. And everyone that want to participate the event and the computer will generate a list of up to 40,000 runners and well go from there and but anybody that wants to participate should register for the lottery and it will be a great experience for them, i promise. Lets be clear, everybody gets a fair shake at this, it doesnt register today until you wait for 11 30 and its all going into the same pool. Correct, its wide open and thats why its easy for everybody to do over a 12week period and a 12day period, i should say and we had a position where we had it sold out in three hours four years ago. Weve gone to the lottery and make it fair for School Teachers and doctors and everybody else that was working during the day. Now its an open season for everybody and we can go from there. You mentioned its a popular event and not only here, but around the country. I did it last yore and part of the excitement is not only participating and you get a broad street run shirt, and you cant go into a gym into philadelphia without seeing broad street run tshirt. Im up to 98 days in a row where ive seen everyone on it and its pretty cool about the shirt and Everything Else that we do for the race. Its an iconic event for the city. We love putting it on the parks and Rec Department and all my staff that helped put this on for the past 36 years has been wonderful and there are 3,000 volunteers that are part of it and with nbc 10s coverage last year and for the first time, bluecross partnership its been a wonderful event. Do you think thats why more people are participating . As far as coverage and things like that, yeah, the notoriety and the challenge of running eight miles its a great distance for people to want to go through the full marathon distances and you know, with the adrenaline that we have with the spectators on broad street it really makes it happen for anybody thats a part of it from the spectators to the volunteers and to the runners, of course. Word of mouth has been the best advertising. I have to say, for anybody that is running and hears the rumor its all downhill on broad street. There are a couple of uphill spots especially right at lehigh. You have to trek through it to keep going. You wound out that one of the secrets is rid downhill and only three miles into the race and thats where it flattens out and the first homes, they get your attention. The best part is you get to see all of the other runners heads bobbing in front of you and thats the uniqueness of it. In the tough spots you not only have the water stations which help tremendously, which are the volunteers and also the spectators and so many families that come out with signs cheering on their loved ones and all of the runners that are out there. In Temple University marching band and when they come out it kicks everybody into gear. If you run the first three miles on adrenaline, then the rest will be easy and you can just dont overdo it in the first three miles and then youll make it and its a good time for everybody. Its awesome and a great tradition and it really brings people from all communities together and youre running through many different communities in philadelphia right down broad street. Thats our chance to expose the city to the outside people that come in because it is a National Event and we do get a lot of people from other states and this gives them a chance to see the true flavor from philadelphia all of the way down the line and its raising money for the American Cancer Society and theyve been our partner since 1982 and we helped contribute to the Charity Program and runners can make additional donations to that organization and they do the registration over the next 12day period. Jim, we do have some information for our viewers in case you missed us when we were talking about the lottery. Heres the deal, lottery to run in the bluecross broad street run, register today until friday, february 12th, it doesnt matter what time you register. You have to do it before 11 59.

The today show host asked her about comments she made about don adtrump, the military and her sons ptsd. You guys brought me here to talk about iowa caucus and not to talk about my kids and that was a promise, but as things go in the world of media, you guys dont always keep your promises evidently. I never blamed president obama. What i have blamed president obama in doing, though, is this level of disrespect for the United States military that has made manifest in getting bunches and beefing up and letting the military to do the job that is trained to do. Palin also talked about ted cruz and the candidate she once supported. She wants trump in the white house and for cruz to remain in the senate.

Karen is a democrat who may caucus as a republican. To make sure that a republican candidate were not interested in is not included. Reporter vicky daniel interrupted her florida vacation to fly home for tonights caucuses. Its important. I want to stand up for my candidate. Thats what democrats have to do here, literally, unlike republicans theres no secret ballot. You basically have to put your hand up in public and say i am for this candidate. Thats really something. Thats just such handson public democracy. Reporter democracy in action in iowa tonight. And were going to see more of the candidates today and well see the lastminute pitches and marco rubio having breakfast at a diner and Hillary Clinton stopped by with doughnuts and coffee for those in the des moines area. Donald trump around lunchtime in waterloo, making those final arguments, but there are not a lot of people who are expected to participate tonight. Yes, it could be a record turnout, but by record in 2008 the first obama election that is the biggest turnout theyve ever seen. One in six iowans participated.

One of those engineers, brandon bastion can provide more information on what happened as the train sped to more than 100 Miles Per Hour along the curve at frankfurt junction last may. The earlier released statements indicate he did not remember what happened during the crash. Other things you should look for in this report.

No conclusions or analysis yet and we spoke with people boarding trains today who were happy to see an increased emphasis on Safety Technology after the crash.

Reporter research from the cardiology of the cleveland clinic, 40 of us are not meeting the minimum recommendations for exercise. 30 minutes a day, five days a week of walking, biking, lifting weights and any moderate physical activity goes a long way in improving measures of cholesterol, blood sugar and blood pressure. Fitness experts say start small and stay realistic. Dont expect to lose 20 pounds in the first month and dont expect to go to every class, you know, five days a week right in a row. Just as exercise can help prevent heart problems, its equally important for people already living with Heart Disease. Doctors say they should be getting just as much physical activity as anybody else. The one caveat i would say to that is that they should build an exercise program with a professional and so with their cardiologist or with their sports cardiologist. If you have those days that are impossible to work in or work out dont take it sitting down. Studies have shone simply standing for two hours a day can reduce Heart Disease risk by 10 .

Here come the clouds and theyre already taking over. Well see a mostly cloudy afternoon and with those clouds light, very light rainfall. At least to start with. The heavier rainfall is way to the west and farther to the west, that is snow thats moving into nebraska. You may have heard the talk about snow coming in for the Iowa Caucuses. Well, not looking all that impressive. By the time the caucuses have reported their official reports and its 11 00 our time and theres barely any snow on the ground and the storm system doesnt get started until tomorrow and thats when theyll be shoveling in iowa. This is the same storm thats going to come our way on wednesday, but were not going to see snow from it. In pacfact, the rain is likely with that rain, much warmer temperatures and 48 degrees in philadelphia. Some scattered showers in the morning, but there will be some breaks in the rainfall and we will be into the 60s at noon time, 61 degrees and here comes the rain for the afternoon. The rain will be moving in and the temperatures will still stay warm. We hit 62 degrees and that will tie the record, but there is a good possibility well break the record on wednesday and get some rain to boot to wash away some of the salt and some of the remaining snow. For today, just very light showers and clouds increasing with scattered, light, afternoon showers and temperatures in the upper 50s to 60 degrees. Behind these clouds a cold front comes through with the clouds and the rain and tomorrow it will be chillier and still above normal in the morning and afternoon and bright, sunny skies for tuesday. Get your rain gear ready for wednesday, but its going to be a warm one. 40 in the morning and 65 in the afternoon and that would blow through the old record from 2006. 48, though, gusty winds drying out on thursday and friday morning will be below freezing friday morning and seeing bright sunshine for friday and a good deal of sunshine this weekend, too, and that will warm us back into the upper 40s.
