campaign is finally down to six days. we have two reports on the strategies for the homestretch. and first we'll go off to nancy cordes covering clinton. to win in florida, clinton needs to generate obama-level enthusiasm. especially from african-americans who made up a quarter of the state's early voting electorate when he was on the ballot in 2012. so, far this year, that rate is off by 7 points. >> the right now is not as solid as it need to be. >> reporter: today the president and clinton made the round again on predominantly black radio stations. >> why you, why now? >> i believe in what i am doing. >> reporter: in battleground north carolina, african-american early voting rates are bouncing back from a slow start after republicans there imposed strict limits on the number of urban polling places during the first week of early voting. >> it wasn't that long ago when

>> nancy cordes on the campaign tonight. now let's go to major garrett covering the trump campaign. >> get out there and vote. pretend we are slightly behind. you got to got out. we don't want to blow this. >> reporter: donald trump its running like an underdog even as new polls show the race in florida is essentially tied. for a second day he warned that a hillary clinton presidency could be mired in congressional and possibly criminal investigations. >> if hillary clinton were to be elected, it would create an unprecedented, and protracted constitutional crisis. haven't we just been through a lot with the clintons? right? >> despite the public polling, trump's team believes it surge add head here. it also believes it has drauchb even in michigan and wisconsin. in au claire trump made a play for voters who cast early ballots for hillary clinton and

buyers' remorse. >> a lot of stuff has come out sense you voted. >> four states allow early vote tires withdraw ballots and revote. state officials say the practice is rarely used. still, trump's pitch speaks to the campaign's buoyancy in the final week. it was also visible in a roughly 600,000 dollar investment in three trump commercials slated to air nationally during tonight's game seven of the world series. >> everyday people stand united ready to replace decades of broken leader who's not part of the system. >> reporter: trump continues to raise money, $2 million this morning in miami from wealthy republican donors. a whopping $100 million through small dollar donations. scott, told the republican national committee and trump campaign fully funded their field operations in every remaining dollar from now until election day will be plowed into trump tv commercials. >> major garrett.

think i'm a racist, we jump to conclusions a trump supporter is a bad uneducated person. >> he is bombastic and says stuff i 100% do not agree with. at the same time i don't want to support a liar. >> how many of you here have had college debt or you will soon have college debt student debt? >> by the time i am finished with my education i am going to have over $200,000 in in order to get a better career, you're forced into higher education, forced into this debt. i don't think really either candidate has posed a good enough stance. >> all right. i want to turn to another topic here, the issue of civil rights. recent poll found that 85% of young african-americans and 72% of hispanics, believe their race is under attack in the u.s.

>> this particular topic is something that is really dear to my heart. because i was robbed and shot in my head. and if that wasn't enough, i look up and i was staring down the barrel of another gun. and this time it wasn't the barrel of a gun from someone that was trying to rob me. this time looking down the barrel of the police. >> ryan quatrimani, you are the son of a former police officer is that right? >> actually recently retired. i think there are b p officers. you know there is plenty of corrupt police officers. but i think, obama hasn't done a decent job at helping the african-american communities. i think hillary clinton is part of that. but i do support our police. >> earlier comment about police officers, you know versus the black lives matter, african-american community. one is a choice, you have a choice to be a cop. you sign that. you go through training for that. ain't no choice being black. trump has normalized this talk

je danger. >> to say trump tore our country apart at the scenes and created this racial division. no way. president obama was the one in the white house for eight years, race relations have been worse than ever in this country. let's look at who is in office, an african-american man who has torn apart this country. we need to look at that. >> to say that race relations have gotten as bad as they have ever been under president obama shows a lack of historical depth. division. and donald trump's rhetoric, this otherism. builds into that narrative that has long been the narrative of american society. while there were passionate disagreements, one issue united this group. debt. many told me that they can't repay their student loans which means they're putting off decisions like buying a house or starting a family. scott they're looking for answers from these candidates.

looked at donations from three of the firm's partners from 2010 to 214. donating $1.6 million mostly to democrats. over the same period they received back $1.4 million in bonuses. a spokesperson said donations were legal they came out of each partner's ownership stake in the firm. a voluntary program involving the partner's own personal after-tax money. thornton donated to dozens of democrats including some of the races. some of the democrats including hillary clinton said they would be returning donations, but scott thornton told us it hired an outside firm to review its political donations and has complied with election law. >> tony dokoupil tonight. tony, thank you. coming up next.
