Politics comes first, with nine days left before the midterms. Steven Portnoy reports that President Trump voted with the First Lady in Palm Beach, Florida, then headed to Michigan. Barack Obama campaigned in Ohio and Michigan and raised hands with Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. "This stuff didn't work on me, not in Michigan. It's not going to work on Abdul," Obama told the crowd. Melissa Adan follows the Justice Department's fight over California's voter rolls, including allegations of noncitizen registrations, to a federal appeals panel. Its emergency hearing ended without a ruling. Davis also reports that Alaska Senate candidate Mary Peltola suffered minor injuries in a car accident.

In Tallahassee, Morgan Norwood reports a shooting near Florida A&M University during homecoming festivities that injured 12 people, six of them children. "11 of those sustained gunshot wounds," Police Chief Lawrence Revell said. FAMU President Marva Johnson told the injured that the university is praying for their recovery.

Reena Roy reports that Six Flags is adding seatbelts and safety reviews across its roller coasters. The decision comes weeks after a Georgia man was ejected from a ride and fell to his death.

Overseas, Tom Soufi Burridge reports from Paris as police and protesters clashed again over the cost of living, with similar scenes in Barcelona and other European cities. From Jerusalem, Matt Rivers covers concerns about Iran targeting American officials abroad and cuts to US embassy staff. The report includes Trump saying, "The answer is no. There will not be a strike today." James Longman reports from Kyiv on Russian missile strikes and Ukraine's requests for Patriot missiles. Davis notes Secretary of State Marco Rubio's online appeal urging Cubans to work secretly with the CIA.

At home, meteorologist Leslie Lopez tracks flooding, evacuations and helicopter rescues across the Southwest. A San Juan County fire chief warns residents to stay out of the water. Near the end, an elementary school is renamed for its retired custodian, Marilyn Hampton.
