<v Speaker 1>can verify the militia's message, but also say it does

21

00:02:18.520 --> 00:02:20.439
<v Speaker 1>People on the North Shore say they've had it with

40
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:23.199
<v Speaker 1>heavy traffic getting into and out of Salem during the

00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:29.759
<v Speaker 1>more than a million people will visit the region's festival,

43
00:02:30.000 --> 00:02:32.439
<v Speaker 1>and for many in surrounding communities, it seems like a

44
00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:35.759
<v Speaker 1>million every day. Salem's mayor continues to urge people to

45
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:40.199
<v Speaker 1>take public transportation, and with Halloween just a couple of

46
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:42.719
<v Speaker 1>weeks away, it's time to stock up on the candy.

51
00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:54.439
<v Speaker 2>reach eleven point six billion dollars. That seems like a lot,

58
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:11.639
<v Speaker 2>other Halloween stuff before October.

59
00:03:11.680 --> 00:03:14.479
<v Speaker 1>It's amazing what Halloween has become. Yeah, I've done it too,

60
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:16.919
<v Speaker 1>actually really Yeah, it's almost like it's part of the

61
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:18.199
<v Speaker 1>holiday season now, right.

62
00:03:18.280 --> 00:03:19.319
<v Speaker 2>I know, you know what the problem is?

63
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:21.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you eat the candy. Yeah, well, I don't know

64
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:23.680
<v Speaker 1>there's a problem. Depends on your perspective.

65
00:03:23.759 --> 00:03:24.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's tricky all right.

66
00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:27.639
<v Speaker 1>Holiday Monday here in Boston, and it's the final day

67
00:03:27.680 --> 00:03:30.439
<v Speaker 1>of the Topsfield Fair. Looks like people who will be

68
00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:33.759
<v Speaker 1>visiting the fair, the oldest in the country, will might

69
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:36.599
<v Speaker 1>get wet this morning. We do have occasional showers out

70
00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.479
<v Speaker 1>and about, and cool air is dominating. In fact, right

71
00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:41.639
<v Speaker 1>now it's just fifty one degrees. It's actually a little

72
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:45.479
<v Speaker 1>bit warmer than yesterday afternoon, when temperatures in many areas

73
00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:48.719
<v Speaker 1>dipped into the mid forties. So we'll get a little

74
00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:51.280
<v Speaker 1>bit milder today into the mid fifties and a couple

75
00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:54.199
<v Speaker 1>of showers around this morning. It'll clear up this afternoon.

76
00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:56.360
<v Speaker 1>We are expecting to see some sunshine as we get

77
00:03:56.520 --> 00:04:00.840
<v Speaker 1>extremely close to sixty degrees later today. Overnight tonight mainly clear,

78
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:04.479
<v Speaker 1>dropping back into the forties and fifties, and sunshine returns tomorrow.

79
00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:07.000
<v Speaker 1>Seasonably cool temperatures for much of the week as well,

80
00:04:07.120 --> 00:04:09.360
<v Speaker 1>with higes mainly in the fifties, and it looks like

81
00:04:09.479 --> 00:04:12.120
<v Speaker 1>sun is going to take us right through Thursday, with

82
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:15.039
<v Speaker 1>a warming trend kicking in on Friday, just in time

83
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:17.519
<v Speaker 1>for the weekend. So we're heading in the right direction.

84
00:04:17.680 --> 00:04:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Just right now. We do have occasional showers this morning,

85
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:22.879
<v Speaker 1>and otherwise cloudy and a raw feel to the air.

86
00:04:22.879 --> 00:04:25.319
<v Speaker 1>It's fifty one here in Boston on this Monday morning

87
00:04:25.319 --> 00:04:28.360
<v Speaker 1>at six oh six. Federal officials say they likely stopped

88
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:32.240
<v Speaker 1>a third assassination attempt against Donald Trump during a campaign

89
00:04:32.319 --> 00:04:35.439
<v Speaker 1>rally in California. The FBI and the Secret Service have

90
00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:38.439
<v Speaker 1>arrested a suspect caught with illegal weapons in his vehicle.

91
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:41.439
<v Speaker 1>Official say the man will face federal gun charges, but

92
00:04:41.519 --> 00:04:45.680
<v Speaker 1>the former president was not in any danger. Meantime, there

93
00:04:45.839 --> 00:04:48.360
<v Speaker 1>is a little more than three weeks to go until

94
00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:51.360
<v Speaker 1>election day, and the race is as tight as it gets.

95
00:04:51.519 --> 00:04:54.319
<v Speaker 4>CBS polling shows the race for the White House a

96
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.839
<v Speaker 4>toss up, with Vice President Kamala Harris up three points

97
00:04:57.879 --> 00:05:02.800
<v Speaker 4>over Trump nationwide, one to forty eight percent. That's one

98
00:05:02.879 --> 00:05:06.920
<v Speaker 4>point tighter from last month, and the seven battleground states

99
00:05:07.040 --> 00:05:10.279
<v Speaker 4>that will decide the election, it's just one point difference

100
00:05:10.360 --> 00:05:11.839
<v Speaker 4>fifty to forty nine.

101
00:05:11.720 --> 00:05:15.639
<v Speaker 1>That CBS's Jureka duncan here. In Massachusetts, a recent survey

102
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:18.720
<v Speaker 1>from The Boston Globe and Suffolk University finds an overwhelming

103
00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:22.439
<v Speaker 1>majority of people planned to vote for Kamala Harris, but

104
00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:27.040
<v Speaker 1>voters are also in the Elizabeth Warren campaign as well.

105
00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:30.399
<v Speaker 1>The Senator and the GOP challenger John Deaton will square

106
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:33.279
<v Speaker 1>off in the first of two debates this week. Tomorrow

107
00:05:33.360 --> 00:05:36.439
<v Speaker 1>night is sponsored by our friends at WBZTV, and you

108
00:05:36.439 --> 00:05:38.800
<v Speaker 1>can catch that debate beginning at eight thirty right here

109
00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:41.560
<v Speaker 1>on WBZ News Radio or on the go with the

110
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:45.519
<v Speaker 1>iHeartRadio app. It's an epic fail for Bath and body

111
00:05:45.560 --> 00:05:49.519
<v Speaker 1>Works this morning. The company apologizes for a candle that

112
00:05:49.600 --> 00:05:52.120
<v Speaker 1>it says is supposed to feature a snowflake on the

113
00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:54.480
<v Speaker 1>label that critics say looks an awful lot like a

114
00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:57.439
<v Speaker 1>ku Klux klan hood. Social media posts have taken to

115
00:05:57.480 --> 00:06:00.279
<v Speaker 1>calling it the Klandell in fact, but for the company

116
00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:03.319
<v Speaker 1>known for its high scent candles and all things warm

117
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:06.360
<v Speaker 1>and fuzzy, this misses the mark. The company has removed

118
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:07.839
<v Speaker 1>the product from its stores.

119
00:06:08.199 --> 00:06:08.279
<v Speaker 3>Well.

120
00:06:08.319 --> 00:06:10.279
<v Speaker 1>Who would have figured looking at leaves could be a

121
00:06:10.319 --> 00:06:13.480
<v Speaker 1>near death experience. Foliage season is at its peak and

122
