00:00:01.080 --> 00:00:06.240
<v Speaker 1>This is w BZY, Boston's news radio, redefining local.

2
00:00:05.919 --> 00:00:15.119
<v Speaker 2>News, sixty four degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon,

3
00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:19.719
<v Speaker 2>I'm Ben Parker. Here's what's happening. President Biden is on

4
00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:21.879
<v Speaker 2>the ground in New Hampshire. He is expected to speak

5
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:27.320
<v Speaker 2>shortly at Conqueror's New Hampshire Technical Institute about prescription drug prices.

6
00:00:27.320 --> 00:00:30.120
<v Speaker 2>He's joined by New Hampshire lawmakers as well as Vermont

7
00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:33.439
<v Speaker 2>Senator Bernie Sanders. Meantime, it is a busy day for

8
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:36.799
<v Speaker 2>both of the presidential candidate's. Former President Trump holds a

9
00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:40.200
<v Speaker 2>rally in Greensboro, North Carolina, while Vice President Harris is

10
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:43.079
<v Speaker 2>off the campaign trail doing some taped interviews.

11
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:46.719
<v Speaker 3>He is taping two television interviews. But we are seeing

12
00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:49.359
<v Speaker 3>the surrogates out there, obviously her running mate, Governor Walls

13
00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:51.759
<v Speaker 3>in Wisconsin. You're going to see Barack Obama out there

14
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:54.200
<v Speaker 3>as well, with him today in Madison, the college town

15
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:57.240
<v Speaker 3>in Wisconsin, trying to drum up the youth vote. Bill Clinton,

16
00:00:57.280 --> 00:00:59.600
<v Speaker 3>the former president, also out there in the campaign trail.

17
00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:02.119
<v Speaker 3>But the messages really turnout at this point.

18
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:05.439
<v Speaker 2>That's ABC's Karen Travers. The US intelligence officials says foreign

19
00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:08.319
<v Speaker 2>actors are trying to divide Americans ahead of the election

20
00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:12.640
<v Speaker 2>over President Trump courting Latino voters in Florida. Says he

21
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:15.319
<v Speaker 2>has people watching the election for any anomalies.

22
00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:16.680
<v Speaker 4>We have a lot of lawyers working.

23
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:19.239
<v Speaker 5>We have lawyers work in numbers of lawyers that nobody's

24
00:01:19.280 --> 00:01:20.159
<v Speaker 5>ever seen before.

25
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:24.719
<v Speaker 2>Two weeks from today is election day. Mail in voting

26
00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:27.200
<v Speaker 2>is well underway, but heads up, there's a tiny little

27
00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:30.439
<v Speaker 2>error that could make your mail in ballot not count.

28
00:01:30.799 --> 00:01:33.760
<v Speaker 2>Ben Hoveland is the chair of the US Election Assistance

29
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Commission and says, and that has to do with your signature.

30
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:38.359
<v Speaker 6>It's a safety measure that a lot of Americans don't

31
00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:41.000
<v Speaker 6>know about, is that your signature is compared to the

32
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.400
<v Speaker 6>one on file. So when you sign that absentee or

33
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:48.200
<v Speaker 6>mail ballot envelope, election workers who are trained look at

34
00:01:48.239 --> 00:01:51.200
<v Speaker 6>that and compare it to the signature they have on file,

35
00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:53.120
<v Speaker 6>usually that's from your voter registration.

36
00:01:53.319 --> 00:01:55.560
<v Speaker 2>Mail in ballots will get rejected if you forget to

37
00:01:55.599 --> 00:01:58.319
<v Speaker 2>sign your ballot altogether, or if you don't get it

38
00:01:58.319 --> 00:02:02.159
<v Speaker 2>in on time. Story Secretary Janet Yellen says the United

39
00:02:02.159 --> 00:02:03.959
<v Speaker 2>States has come a long way since the nation was

40
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:06.120
<v Speaker 2>caught in the grips of the COVID pandemic.

41
00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:10.439
<v Speaker 7>America's strong economic performance is leaving the way as a

42
00:02:10.560 --> 00:02:13.120
<v Speaker 7>key engine of global growth.

43
00:02:12.919 --> 00:02:16.360
<v Speaker 8>And Secretary Yellen credits the Biden Harris administration.

44
00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:20.280
<v Speaker 7>We went from millions having lost their jobs to an

45
00:02:20.439 --> 00:02:22.680
<v Speaker 7>historic labor market recovery.

46
00:02:22.840 --> 00:02:26.680
<v Speaker 8>She says. Unemployment is near all time lows, and US.

47
00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:30.159
<v Speaker 7>Real wage growth has outperformed that of most of their

48
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:31.639
<v Speaker 7>advanced economies.

49
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:35.360
<v Speaker 8>She says the IMF has upgraded its economic outlook for

50
00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:39.520
<v Speaker 8>the US this year. Stacey Lynn, CBS News Washington.

51
00:02:39.719 --> 00:02:42.879
<v Speaker 2>Work stuff closer for getting a whole new mode of transportation.

52
00:02:43.039 --> 00:02:45.800
<v Speaker 5>The agency is releasing final guidelines needed to train and

53
00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:49.759
<v Speaker 5>qualify pilots to fly powered lift aircraft, which have the

54
00:02:49.840 --> 00:02:53.719
<v Speaker 5>characteristics of both airplanes and helicopters. The goal is to

55
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:57.520
<v Speaker 5>use powerlift aircraft for air taxis and for short haul

56
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:02.159
<v Speaker 5>operations like air ambulances and cargo delivery. This category of

57
00:03:02.280 --> 00:03:05.680
<v Speaker 5>civil aircraft is the first in early eighty years, and

58
00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:08.000
<v Speaker 5>the actions of the FAA will make them one step

59
00:03:08.039 --> 00:03:13.240
<v Speaker 5>closer to operational reality. Lindy Kenyon, CBS News Washington.

60
00:03:13.400 --> 00:03:15.280
<v Speaker 2>We did get into the seventies in many spots we

61
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:17.960
<v Speaker 2>didn't hit seventy in Boston, though we have retreated a

62
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:20.759
<v Speaker 2>bit into the mid sixties. It'll be mainly clear tonight,

63
00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:24.879
<v Speaker 2>fairly mild, mainly in the fifties. Warm Tomorrow, mid seventies

64
00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:27.199
<v Speaker 2>with a good deal of sunshine, and then clouds thicken up.

65
00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>Tomorrow night it'll become breezy. A couple of showers get

66
00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:32.759
<v Speaker 2>in here and hang with us until the early part

67
00:03:32.759 --> 00:03:36.759
<v Speaker 2>of Thursday. Eventually, Thursday brings us back some sunshine. It'll

68
00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:40.560
<v Speaker 2>be breezy, though in much cooler temperatures load a mid sixties,

69
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:43.159
<v Speaker 2>only in the upper fifties for most of us, with

70
00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:46.840
<v Speaker 2>some sunshine Friday right now sixty four degrees in Boston.

71
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:56.439

<v Speaker 2>off a brand new season to try to become champion again.

74

76
00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:11.680
<v Speaker 2>coffee with a spin.

77
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:14.479

<v Speaker 1>You paid for my drink and everything.

83
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:27.199

00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:40.240
<v Speaker 3>I missed out on the celebrations last time.

91
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:41.879
<v Speaker 8>So I've literally been waiting.

92
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.600
<v Speaker 4>My whole career for today. So it couldn't be more excited.

00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:47.720
