prominent gop voices who are demanding trump drop out or they won't vote for him. even his running mate, mike pence, calling his comments inexcusable. and during the debate, trump outright rejected one of pence's key points. >> let me repeat the question. if you were president, what would you do about syria and the humanitarian crisis in aleppo. i want to remind you what your running mate said. he said provocations by russia need to be met with american strength and if russia continues to be involved in air strikes along with the syrian government forces of assad, the united states of america should be prepared to use military force to strike the military targets of the assad regime. >> okay. he and i haven't spoken and i disagree. >> you disagree with your running mate? >> after the debate, pence tweeted, quote, congrats to m 0

hillary clinton's response to the attacks against her and her husband. >> so much of what he just said is not right, but he gets to run his campaign any way he chooses. he gets to decide what he wants to talk about instead of answering people's questions, talking about our agenda, laying out the plans we have that we think can make a better life and a better country. that's his choice. when i hear something like that, i'm reminded of what my friend michelle obama advised us all. when they go low, you go high. >> and a snap poll taken by ugov

immediately after had clinton beating trump with 47% saying clinton won. 42% siding with trump. and a new cnn/orc poll had clinton on top with 57% and 34% for trump. however, a majority, 63%, said trump did better than they expected. >> and now to a developing story we're following overnight as a u.s. naval destroyer was fired a upon in the red sea. >> first, the floodwaters are still rising in the aftermath of hurricane matthew. the death toll across four southeastern states stands at 19, and more than 2 million homes and businesses are still without power. in north carolina, there were nearly 1,000 rescues in a single 24-hour period after more than a foot of rain fell in some cities. rivers and dams are swoeling and forecasters are warning of historic flooding to come. >> in haiti, the death toll from hurricane matthew has risen to
