Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado is going home. On NBC Nightly News' Sunday broadcast, White House correspondent Yamiche Alcindor reports that Machado is returning after exile, following what the network describes as Nicolás Maduro's removal from power. It is one of several threads in a full episode that passed 156,000 views in its first four hours online, making it the channel's most watched new upload.
Hallie Jackson anchors a broadcast that opens with the flooding across the West. Dana Griffin reports on historic flash floods in Colorado and New Mexico, while California beach towns build sea walls ahead of high tides.
In Newport, Oregon, an ammonia leak and warehouse fire at a seafood plant forced evacuations. Correspondent George Solis talks with residents, including Bonnie Brown, who says, "My throat is starting to tighten a little bit."
Richard Engel reports from Paris, where the Steelers and Saints played the NFL's first game in France after days of mass protests. One American fan tells him that people had been "concerned about the riots" but that the trip was going well.
The midterms take up the middle of the program. Shaquille Brewster covers Donald Trump and Barack Obama campaigning in Michigan, where Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed tells a crowd he is grateful to raise his two daughters in America. Brewster also reports on voting disputes in Alaska and California. Jackson then travels through the Midwest with a whiteboard, asking voters to describe the economy in a single word.
Shorter items include a U.S. Marine indicted on murder charges in Okinawa, according to the broadcast, and Six Flags adding seat belts to its Goliath coaster.
The episode closes in Aubrey, Texas, where Marilyn Hampton spent nearly four decades as a school custodian. She learns that a new elementary school will be named after her. Her response: "Well, they better keep it clean."
