A lot of people came out to see her, but there are those mixed results from the polls. Reporter yeah, the mixed results from the polls are something that really influenced clinton today to really get the voters out. One poll shows trump ahead of clinton. Another poll showing that clinton is ahead by only three points. That really motivated her today to talk to this crowd about getting out to vote. You know, with 13 days left in this election, we cannot no complacency here. Reporter the message was not just to vote, but clinton trying to motivate the crowd to vote earl early.

Mark meridith joins us live from dc. Reporter jen, a little unusual, but for trump, this is what we have almost come to expect when he has these Different Campaign stops. His hotel had a soft opening a few months ago, but today was the official Ribbon Cutting ceremony. He was also hoping to send a message to undecided voters not just in florida, but around the country. It is not the white house, but it is close. Close by at least. Today, donald trump using the Campaign Spotlight hotel. Return a property that had been neglected for decades losing huge sums of money. Reporter selling the hotel is a symbol of success. He spent wednesday morning away from the traditional rallies in battleground states but stuck with his most popular talking points. Right now, just about it is always over budget. Behind schedule. Reporter while trump tried to send a message about how efficiency and elegance can translate into government, protesters outside had a message of their own. Demonstrators want to come and stand against his racism and sexism, his bigotry. Reporter on the trail, trump continues to use his plane, golf courses, and ventures as a billboard to voter. The mystery now, will it pay off trumps hotel sits along pennsylvania avenue. If you follow politics you know this is the same route used in january for the inauguration parade. But, the question everybody is trying to figure out, will trump be watching the parade from the hotel or leading it . We will have to wait 13 more days to find out. Since we are less than two weeks away, we are starting to get details on Election Night. We know where at least one of the candidates will be that Hillary Clintons campaign putting out news that she will be in central manhattan at a place known as the jabbat center. She will hold an Election Night rally and speech. It has a glass dome on top. Whether that has anything to do with her speech that night.

No we dont. Marco rubio stands by trump bringing people together and reaching across the aisle to get things done. Protecting Social Security. And building an economy that works for all of us. Im Patrick Murphy and i approved this message i served under president bush and obama. I fought the taliban. I was asked to form a Global Coalition to counter isil. When someone makes the comment that they know more about the Islamic State or isil than do the generals, of the reality. But i believe secretary clinton really understands the threat that the Islamic State poses to the United States and to the american people. And i believe she understands how to wield American Power to ultimately defeat this threat and to keep us safe. Im Hillary Clinton speeders, for months, a parent. We are live outside avery elementary. Mom, this has been dealing with a pretty big problem and a lot you know what . We came down the street just a bit. This is where the school zone starts and when school is dropping off and picking up in the afternoon, it flashes and tells you it is 15 miles an hour. Then it tells you how much your speed is. We were here this morning and i can tell you, i saw people doing twice that. And sometimes, even more. The school zone sign tells you just how fast you are going. But for a lot of people traveling down lois avenue in the morning, it is not enough an hour. Daily. Every school day. Reporter that is why Pam Moore Mccoy called 8 on your side. She witnessed the speeding firsthand. It is 30, it is 35, its 40. They are speeding in a regular zone when this is a school zone. Reporter so we grabbed the speed buster gun and hit the street. Sure enough, there were people blowing past the school over the limit. Some twice as fast. Parents who walk their kids to school told me it is just ridiculous how fast people are and scary. You know they are supposed to obey the rules but people come through sometimes. I am looking to see if they are looking at their phone or have their phone to their ear. Reporter even with the Tampa Police Officer there, people kept on speeding. One guy going so fast that officer had to run into the street to pull him over. We asked him why he was flying through a school zone. Did you realize you were going pretty fast through a school zone. I didnt even know that was a school zone until right when i got up to the corner here. Didnt see the flashing sign . Down there . I turned down from here. Reporter whatever the excuse, parents like pam are going to keep an eye out for speeders. I almost saw a crossing guard get hit. That is just not right. Just not right. Reporter so, i talked to tpd about this problem. They tell me short of sitting out tickets, they dont have is a lot they can do. They can put up temporary measures to slow the traffic down out here in the morning and the afternoon and anything beyond that, it would have to be the department of transportation to put in a speed hump or something. Can we go back to the guy for a second . Did he get a ticket . Reporter you know what . He did not get a ticket. Because, the officer that was here was not actually running radar. He did get a ticket though, this was not for his drivers license. I want to point out something else. Just in general, these people are flying up and down here, 35 miles an hour. They are flying up and down the street right now. It is probably a problem more than just during school to be honest with you. Interesting. Im sure we will hear more complaints. Rod carter, thank you. The Tampa Bay Lightning won big over toronto last night. 73. But goalie ben bishop his front teeth torontos Peter Holling gets off a wrist shot.

Now, max defender 8. The world east most powerful radar and your forecast with chief talking about that return of moisture meaning a bit more humidity in the atmosphere. That does not translate to much in the way of shower activity. You can see on the live sweep. Not too much going on around the region. Relatively dry and it will stay that way. We will talk about the weather in terms of dry and moist. But mostly at this point, we are referring to the atmospheric moisture that is not actually translating into showers. Here at plantation crystal river. 82 degrees with an east wind at 9 miles an hour.

Make placid, a pleasant 78 degrees and the dew points have come back a little bit in the 60s and the upper 50s. It is just a bit of a warmer feeling in streaming our way from the southwest. You can see that on the water vapor imagery. Generally, it is just not much in the way of producing any precipitation. High clouds made for sort of a cloudy day across the southern portion of the state and the eastward moving showers did drop a few drops on the windshield for the folks in south florida. On the wrap model, the clear easterly flow continues to push across the state. Just indicating that overall east to west flow, that is very much in place around an area of now, into thursday, and, beyond this evening, thursday morning, warm temperatures in the upper 60s throughout this period. Same flow pattern for us from the east. Maybe a few showers further down to the south. But most of the rain activity remains well to our south. So we are not expecting much in the way of precipitation. Thursday, rain chances are less than 10 . So we are just drawing 0 on the massachusetts our high temperatures will be in the mid 80s as we talked about all the way into and through the weekend. So each one of these day is a similar but generally a mix of sun and clouds. Starting out with sunshine for most in the early section of the day. But very consistent forecast, guys. A little bit warm for october, but still very much october in florida. Golly, you are not kidding. 85. 0 chance of rain.
