nra member: do i believe good, law abiding citizens have a right to bear arms? onsibilities. do i believe convicted felons have that same right? no. but right now, criminals can easily get guns at gun shows or online from strangers with no background check. i'm a member of the nra. owning guns is my right. but letting criminals walk into a gun show and walk out with a gun, no questions asked? that's a threat to all of us.

: i do. reporter: why do you say that? heck: why wouldn't i? narrator: donald trump and joe heck. wrong for nevada. narrator: donald trump and joe heck. putting a wife to work is a very dangerous thing. planned parenthood should absolutely be defunded. and congressman hardy said he supported trump 100%. like trump, hardy opposed legislation to ensure equal pay. and hardy fought to defund planned parenthood, just like trump. ruben kihuen respects women. kihuen fought for equal pay for equal work. and ruben kihuen will protect our right

i spent many years as a nuclear missile launch officer. if the president gave the order we had to launch the missiles, that would be it. i prayed that call would never come. [ radio chatter ] self control may be all that keeps these missiles from firing. [ sirens blearing ] i would bomb the [ beep] out of them. i want to be unpredictable. i love war. the thought of donald trump with nuclear weapons scares me to death.

when the last one is held in nevada, it's the lynchpin. it could decide it all." this debate is very critical in this election... and people around our valley are very passionate about it. donald trump and hillary clinton supporters continue to go

because we know a lot of things depend on who is president. " the issues they are bringing attention to... and who may make an appearance tonight. between lewd leaked audio and an ongoing e-mail scandal... both nominees are facing controversies tonight. our focus group weighs in on both topics. jacky rosen: i'm jacky rosen and i approved this message. party republicans in congress want to cut social security. woman: and danny tarkanian wants to join them. man: he is proud to call himself a "tea party radical." man: he wants to privatize social security... woman: ...just like them. woman: risking social security benefits on wall street. man: danny tarkanian would raise the retirement age... woman: just like the tea party republicans in congress. man: they would take away what we've paid for out of every paycheck. man:that's "tea party radical" for ya'.

ian is trying. he'd rather you forget about all of his failed runs for congress, senate, and secretary of state. ...and the shady record that killed his chances every time. the property taxes tarkanian skipped out on for years... the telemarketing scammers he represented... all those fake charities he helped set up. he can try all he wants, but danny tarkanian just can't bury his past.

here is a look at your drive here are the accidents to watch out and alternate routes you can use listed on our maps here are the construciton areas to look out for and alternate routes listed on our maps here are your photos for the day back to the news desk. the road to the white house often takes a detour

the road to the white house often takes a detour through hollywood. "more's" sean mcallister joining us now with a look at how hollywood has been involved with the presidential campaign. traditonally celebrities have been seen as fundraisers for political campaigns. but this election has turned everything around. it's uhhh, a circus! the 2016

it's uhhh, a circus! the 2016 presidential campaign has involved hollywood like never before. but with a reality star in the race for the white house... the campaigns and debates have been compared to the chaos seen on t-v in housewives" series. there were all these articles online comparing the debate to the real housewives. which i don't know if i want to laugh about or cry about. entertainment anchor nancy o'dell also being thrown into the crazy white house race after it was revealed that she was the subject of a recorded conversation between donald trump and her former "access hollywood" co- host billy bush. trump: you know i'm automatically attracted to beautiful - i just start kissing them. it's like a magnet. i just kiss. i don't even wait. and when you're a star, they let you do it. you can do anything. unidentified voice: whatever you want.

by the . you can do anything. there's a lot of drama involved. but there's very serious issues at stake. and it's the serious issues that compelled model chrissy tiegen and her grammy winning husband john legend to come here to las vegas... regestering young people to vote. every election is important but this one is particularly important to us because we know a lot of things depend on who is president. while some stars say the choices aren't the best this year -- they agree that voting is paramount. we've got 300- million am and this is typical of america to end up with these two people that we get to pick from. but it's what we got, so you've got to vote. while women's issues have become front and center heading into this third and finale debate... other stars continue fighting for a diverse cross section of america. "we want to ensure that the faces of latinos are reflected at every level of government and in politics that drive our nation forward." with the debate hall at unlv filling up tonight -- we know one

here. i think i'd like to watch that on my sofa, from my home with a glass of champagne. closed captioning will resume

two weeks since that raw footage of a 2005 interview surfaced... with audio of a conversation between donald trump and billy bush. for some, it was a nail in the coffin for supporting trump... as nevada leaders backed out from endorsing him... so did some who were unsure but leaning his way. we want to take it back to the focus group in studio now with cyndi lundeberg and mark peplowski to hear how that and the recent wikileaks on hillary clinton's side... are influencing them. thank you john christine. 1. did trump tapes

1. did trump tapes change your mind? 2. are you satisfied with trumps apology? and what do you think about his statements it was just locker room talk? 3. do you now believe the women coming froward claiming he sexually assaulted them? clinton email/ wiki 1. are the emails being released by wikileaks as damning as the trump tapes? 2. lets talk about the clinton email deleting controversy....

nra member: do i believe good, law abiding citizens have a right to bear arms? you bet. and with that right comes responsibilities. do i believe convicted felons have that same right? no. but right now, criminals can easily get guns at gun shows or online from strangers with no background check. i'm a member of the nra. owning guns is my right. but letting criminals walk into a gun show and walk out with a gun, no questions asked? that's a threat to all of us.

of coaching on what to say during the debates. but it is going to be a lot tougher for them to control their body language tonight. take a look at this communication breakdown. 50 percent of what we say is non-verbal gestures and postures. we showed various facial expressis from the first debate, and showed them to behaviorial psychologist jonathan falberg. "he's received her message, but he's not really happy with what she just said "we see with the gesture it's about making a point. and with her smile, we see she's very pleased with her idea." "he feels confident in his rebuttal -- and if you look at the tilt in his head, he is listening to key points in her message." "it's almost a how very dare you!"

risking vital services for thousands of nevada seniors and veterans. but as federal employees like air traffic controllers worked 16 days without pay, joe heck continues to cash his paycheck... even as 244 members of congress refused their pay. joe heck says he deserves it. joe heck. he hasn't been working for you. joe heck says he deserves it. putting a wife to work is a very dangerous thing. planned parenthood should absolutely be defunded. like trump, hardy opposed legislation to ensure equal pay. and hardy fought to defund planned parenthood, just like trump. ruben kihuen respects women. kihuen fought for equal pay for equal work. and ruben kihuen will protect our right to make our own health decisions.

it's not uncommon for autistic kids to flap their hands.

election is so much bigger than party. my son max can't live in trump world. so i'm crossing party lines and voting for hillary. i don't always agree with her, but she's reasonable. and she's smart. she can work with people to solve problems. i want to be able to tell my kids that i did the right thing when it really mattered. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. hundreds of unlv students get a once in a lifetime opportunity tonight... volunteering to help during this debate. fox5's vince sapienza shows us some of the jobs they will be doing tonight, and what it means to be a part of this historical event. nats: "good boy cap"

best friend of randy dexter. an army veteran - now unlv student who was selected to volunteer at the presidential debate. "my wife was making fun of me when i found out, because i was like a giddy little kid." randy and captain were just two of a thousand unlv students selected to volunteer. of the thousand.. only a quarter of them are credentialed to be in the media center. "historically speaking i'm glad in the future hopefully, when i'm a seasoned reporter i get to look back and say that i was a part of that." jenn will be one of the runners in the media center wednesday night. but it wasn't till a few weeks ago she found out. "i did get very emotional when i found out, i could not believe it." standup the sign up process started back in may students had to fill out a multiple page application online along with submitting a state license...a reference letter... their passport....social security number...and a head shot... just to be considered. "i have sacrificed a lot, student loans, you name it, time with my family, things are starting to come together and this is one of those things that make me feel i am in the right

place at the right time." "it's like the super bowl." juanita fain - vice president of student affairs says this event is as if the rebels football team won the national championship in college football. "when a school wins a national championship, whichever school that may be, their admission applications go up because of just name recognition, we see this as the same category." fain tells me if the university were to pay for the kind of exposure unlv has already recieved debate. it would cost more than 100- million dollars. students say that same exposure can only help them. "it will definitly be an asset in my career and i look forward to showing that off. "this is epic for me, this is something i'll cherish for the rest of my life, something no one will ever be able to take away, to share it with him also is pretty awesome." let's take it back in studio now with cyndi... we have three students in our focus group...
