We are hearing a lot of excuses. Reporter no money, but landscape, grounds, electric bill, the city, to lease some fields. Our electric bill is a lot.

Reporter i reached tout the company who is supposed to have the money. They didnt get back to me. Other leagues that have done charge backs.

Donald trump is scheduled to speak in tallahassee in about an hour. State with stops in miami and sanford. Hillary clinton afended an early voting event in coconet grove. The latest poll shows clinton has a five point lead over donald trump nationally. In a fourway race, she draws 46 of the support, donald trump 41. With just two weeks until election day, both major parties are pouring millions of dollars into the key battleground states lets go to our National Correspondent Mark Meridith who joins us live from the dc bureau. You are looking into which states will be major players. Im thinking florida, florida, florida. Reporter i wish i had the white board to go with it with the florida on there. But it is not just the count down to election day, but a number. 270 electoral votes we will all be looking at two weeks from now. Thats the magic number that either candidate needs to win the white house. Neither candidate is there. But, there is one that is closer to it overall. I want to show you, this is the map that is from the website 270 to win. They analyze the latest polls. You mentioned florida, 29 electoral votes. A tossup state. Georgia, North Carolina, ohio, georgia is not a state that we are used to seeing trending either way but republican. It is interested to see them shaded the way they are. North carolina, ohio, iowa, wisconsin. Thar two weeks and this is why we are seeing all of the candidates put every resource they have, whether it is the ad money, the high profile surrogates and the candidates themselves. We were showing you earlier today, the video of donald trump on the ground in florida. He is going to have several Different Campaign stops not just in florida but the other battleground states like North Carolina later on this week. What is interesting is we are seeing more of is shift to the surrogates. People like president obama, depending on the big name democratic supporters to get out the vote. But for republicans, Donald Trumps campaign is having a hard time finding that headliner outside of rudy giuliani. You dont necessarily see the big star power that Hillary Clinton is able to count onto help bring out the crowds. However, will this translate to any sort of victory on election day, keith . Two weeks, we have to wait to find out. Mark, you showed several swing states on the map. Utah. Thats a big concern. Some prefer an independent conservative over the republican nominee there it looks like. Reporter keith, it is hard to believe we would be talking about utah as a tossup state with Hillary Clinton as the democratic nominee. But it is not because of clintons success. It is because of a third Party Conservative candidate. A guy by the name of evan mcmullen. He has conservative credentials he is trying to sell to utah. Support me, make this is a three person race i should say. So utah, a a battleground state. In the end it doesnt have enough electoral votes to make a difference, but it is interesting.

But on the front of it, there is a little metal probe. When you hit the button and you push on somebody, it is no different than a stun gun. Reporter when it come to handguns. Lee care of the tsa says people have the same excuse. Most people say they forgot. Or they had the firearm with them and likely forgotten they excuse. He says it is a criminal act that could result in a civil penalty up to 11,000 in fines. And possible arrests. So, if someone does bring the firearm to the check point, we do refer them over to local Law Enforcement for whatever action they take. Reporter if you travel with the gun. Tsa says it must be checked in baggage, unloaded, and in a locked hard case and declared a checkin. Now, tall weapons you saw on the table were confiscated at Tampa International.

Under a deal with the Florida Department of environmental protection, mosaic will be required to fill that sink hole. The company will also have to if it moves off site, mosaic is also responsible for cleaning up that mess. People living nearby are relieved the state is stepping in.
