<v Speaker 2>Sunshine State will decide on two vacant House seats that

34
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:55.799

<v Speaker 2>Court decided not to hear the arguments of vote buying.

43
00:02:21.039 --> 00:02:24.000
<v Speaker 2>The winner will tip the political scales in that state's

66
00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:24.240
<v Speaker 3>Can we just touch on the good news just a

67
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:26.240
<v Speaker 3>little bit? The Red Sox just locked up, as in

<v Speaker 4>Well.

74
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:41.439

76
00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:46.800

78
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:52.479

83
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:06.439
<v Speaker 1>the South Coast Cape and islands this morning, but that'll

84
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:09.000
<v Speaker 1>be gone in the next couple of hours. It is

85
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:11.719
<v Speaker 1>going to start unsettled today with a bit of wind

86
00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:14.120
<v Speaker 1>here and there under mostly cloudy skies to begin, but

87

93
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:33.720
<v Speaker 1>on the way, and still in the sixties to wrap
