clinton masks, 55% to 45%. in the past, it has correctly forecast the outcome of the presidential election -- every one since 1996. > [ indistinct ] that's not stopping adele from weighing in on the presidential election here in the u.s. she told the crowd that her sold- out show in miami not to vote for donald trump. she said she's 100% for hillary clinton. clinton was in the audience last

some rain. they have seen tremendous rain over the last several weeks and they're getting more over the next few days. we'll get rain from central california into oregon and washington. i do think we will see light showers in western colorado coming up saturday. that will bring a few clouds around here but i don't think we'll see any of that rain make it to the east side of the continental divide. by the way, so far this year, denver running more than 2- precip. seattle, 8 inches above so even in wet seattle it's kind of crazy. they have had over 32 inches of rain so far this year. >> man, oh, man. >> almost 32.5. >> not make it down here, that's for sure. so the hill area near c.u. boulder is about to look different. in 2018, developers hope to break ground on a 150 room hotel, project

business for them to say, hey, we'll build a hotel and move on, find another location which they think it's easy to do, t businesses in the area and a hookah bar. he would have no choice but to leave. >> i don't know what i'm going to do. i'm losing two businesses, my livelihood. >> reporter: student and petitions have been trying to save this complex between university and pleasant, but the city has unanimously approved the area for a brand- new hotel. a handful of plans still need to be finalized, but it's a be gone by 2018. >> the hill has been in decline, there's tremendous turnover everywhere. a lot of buildings are dilapidated. there's a serious need for a project to regentrify, re- energize the entire area. >> reporter: he is the lead developer on the project and wants to lift the community not disrupt it. >> our goal is move forward to meet with tenants and help them stay open. >> reporter: there will be 20,000 to 30,000 square feet of space and wants to collaborate to find the best possible stores to benefit their needs but some say the best thing to do is leave the area alone. >> it's a little run down but people use this, like, the locals come here all the time. >> it will be sad toilets but i think positives can come it can be saved and others will hear his plea. >> nobody is thinking about the businesses. >> reporter: the city has given this list of commercial vacancies to all the tenants on the hill that could be displaced in case they want to relocate. what is interesting -- one tenant shared this little paragraph with me, a provision in her lease agreemen hill in boulder, and this essentially states that the landlord can ask them to leave, can ask the tenants to leave for the sale of the property or for development to come into this area. the only thing the landlord has to do is give 120 days' notice and they don't plan to break ground on this hotel until 2018. >> controversial for sure but, yeah, change always is. million and

tables that would have been pitched or collected dust. >> reporter: typically these sighs are limited to a certain community or suburb and are private. after an invitation to join the group, you can post an item you want to sell, list the price, and how a buyer can get in touch with you. before using these sites, definitely check out the rule and regulation page. there's usually one attached. this outlines what you can and cannot sell. that includes direct sales, knockoffs, or counterfeits, and usually no firearms or weapons of any kind. also check a return policy because there could be guidelines on how to return an item if it's not what you expected. take multiple pictures of the item. a lot of sites won't let you post an item for sale unless you have a picture but obviously the more pictures you have, the better it will sell. buying baby gear, she thinks the savings is immeasurable. >> for example, swing you would spend $150 on at babies r us -- perfect condition, $5. >>

has a port wine stain birthmark on her cheek and she dropped her daughter off. she said some were whispering and staring, looking at the mark, but little lydia pulled out an educational book on the birthmark and quietly handed it to the teacher so the teacher could educate her classmates. kelly said, "i cried nearly the entire way to works not because i worry how people will treat her but she
