Host what are the productions for voter turnout overall . Guest ohio traditionally has a higher rate of voter turnout then other states in the country because it is a swing state and because our elections are so competitive.

This is the cbs evening news with norah odonnell, reporting from the nations capital. Odonnell good evening, and thank you for joining us. The race for the white house is a fullon sprint tonight, with the current president and the previous one facing off in dueling rallies in two critical battleground states. With just 13 days until the election, tonight, former president barack obama is on the stump and out on the street in philadelphia, campaigning for joe biden. Its the first time he has appeared in person with voters since the pandemic began. And hes doing it in pennsylvania, a state that both campaigns say is a must win. Now some 500 miles south tonight, the current president is holding his own rally in North Carolina. Now, thats a state that President Trump won by four points four years ago. Well, tonight, it is considered a tossup. But even as President Trump tries to change the momentum of the race, hes not changing his stance on the coronavirus, saying in an interview there is

Mate. Tweeting just in the last hour, i have the great honor to announce that i have picked Kamala Harris, a fearless fighter for the little guy and one of the countrys finest public servants. As attorney general, she worked closely with bo. I was proud then and i am proud now to have her as my partner in this campaign. I want to take a look first at how this is impacting the markets. Abigail doolittle has been following the backandforth. Markets turned sharply lower at the close. Abigail we have seen a little bit of a risk on reaction to the harris. Ment of the s p 500 futures down about 0. 9 . Funds also a little bit lower. A little bit of a risk on move on that announcement. On the day, not that much. 100 down for the third day in a row.

School district . What should be the next steps . This is perhaps an instructive case. This is one of the first School Districts in the country to open to facetoface instruction. I would say it shouldnt be surprising they had a number of positive cases right off the bat. I think thats going to be the case all across the country.

That way when those positive cases come, the number of exposures will be much lower. I think the second big lesson is that really, every school needs to have a plan for online instruction. Because as weve seen in this School District, you may rapidly have a need to convert to online ins
