either in person or by mail. more than 40% of iowa voters took advantage of it in 2012, enough for the obama campaign to know even before election day that he had won there. >> let's go vote! >> reporter: with 26,000 volunteers in iowa alone, the clinton campaign is hoping its superior ground game will make up for a demographic disadvantage. >> you're going to put that inside the voter affidavit. >> reporter: a larger share of working-class white voters than any battleground state. they tend to favor p, miser who might not pay taxes like the clintons do. >> then it's probably true he hasn't paid a penny in federal taxes to actually support our military or our vets or our schools or our roads or our education systems. >> reporter: the clinton campaign's strategy in early voting states is to use volunteers to convince less reliable voters, and they know who they are, to cast their

can you imagine i end up in a position like this? >> reporter: it's not the first time trump has gone after someone outside the political arena. he criticized gonzalo curiel, a mexican american federal judge who trump said couldn't be impartial because of his heritage. >> he's not treating me fairly. >> have you even read the united states constitution? >> reporter: trump also attacked the parents of an american muslim killed in iraq. >> if you look at his wife, she was standing there, she had nothing to say. run through these three situations. each did trump political harm until he dropped them, which he's trying to do with machado. and scott, all three spoke to trump's rough history with his use of race, gender, and fairness. >> major garrett, thanks very much. vice presidential candidates tim kay sxn mike pence will debate next tuesday in farmville, virginia. cbsn's elaine quijano will be the moderator, and our live

executive to be held accountable. >> so when wells fargo is fined millions or even billions of dollars, that doesn't come out of anybody's pocket who runs the company? >> correct. that comes out of our pockets. >> reporter: the $185 million fine imposed on wells fargo for the phony accounts is only one of the penalties the bank has faced recently and not nearly the largest. this year alone wells fargo has been fined $1.2 billion for falsely certifying mortgage loans, $4li loan abuses, and $70 million for violations judged by the controller of the currency. ruth landaverde watched today as her former boss was grilled. she says she quit working at wells fargo because of the unrelenting pressure to open new accounts. >> how was he so disconnected? how did he not know that this type of behavior was happening? >> reporter: wells fargo is not alone in being caught breaking the rules. in the past six years, scott,

says, jacqueline picasso surprised him. >> translator: madam called me into the hallway and said, come here, this is for you. and she handed me a box. i said, thank you, madam. i left and brought it back here. >> reporter: the leganecs say they opened the box and weren't impressed. they described the contents as two picasso sketch books and sheets of loose-leaf paper, all unsigned. >> translator: there were plenty of drawings that were repeated. for example, there was the body of a horse without the head. and the second part was only the head. >> reporter: danielle leganec says in general she's not a big fan of picasso's art. >> translator: that painting i don't know if the character is looking at me, not looking at me. the head is upside down. it's on the side. that's what made him famous. i'm not saying it's ugly.

>> so you didn't think much of this box of paintings and sketches and things you received? >> translator: if someone would have told me, monsieur leganec, go and throw this in the fire, i would have thrown it in the fire. >> reporter: instead of burning the box, pierre leganec says it ended up on a shelf in his garage. it lived there undisturbed until 2010, when he says he was ill and facing surgery. that's when he thought he should get his affairs and wondered if that picasso gift might be worth something. so he contacted the picasso administration, run by pablo picasso's son and described by handwritten letters and photos what he had. the picasso administration is the only place in the world that can certify the artist's work. leganec wanted his box of picasso's work authenticated. >> translator: they answered me by telling me that claude picasso wanted to see with his

and he gave us an appointment. so we went up to paris, my wife and i, by train with a suitcase. >> full of artwork. >> translator: yes. i organized them properly in cardboard folders so it could be presentable. >> how were you greeted by claude? >> translator: he was a little bit haughty. >> impolite. >> translator: he's a monsieur, and we are little people. >> he didn't even say hello. >> little people. >> translator: he looked at me and said, you can sit over there." one cannot say we were welcomed. that's not very polite, considering he's the son of a genius. >> kind of snobbish, you say. >> translator: yes. >> translator: yes, snob. >> translator: a man represents wealth. >> reporter: but claude picasso himself, the artist's third child and one of five living heirs, remembers the meeting differently. >> i start, you know, asking

an investigation. three weeks later the gendarmes were at the le guennec door. they seized the works and they seized the couple. >> translator: we were taken into custody to nice, my wife in one car and i in another, and i was held there for two days. >> i spent one day in jail. i was devastated. so devastated that i've been seeing a psychiatrist. i am not over it. i can st and i'd like to add, if i can use this language, it didn't just smell bad. it stank. >> you don't believe they were kept in their garage for 40 years? >> no. >> reporter: jean jacques nurier and claudia andrieu, lawyers representing the picasso administration, say the condition of the art is too pristine to have been kept on a shelf in a garage for almost 40 years. they don't buy any part of the le guennecs' story.

>> it's impossible. >> it's impossible. >> it's a nonsense. and to be very frank with you, believe that mr. le guennec is a swindler. >> reporter: the le guennecs say they're honest people caught in a david and goliath battle with the picasso heirs, snooty art moguls who can't handle the idea that a modest family might be worthy of the artist's gift. >> translator: we are simple people. we love our home and our we've never traveled. >> they say you folks were a little snobbish and perhaps looking down on them because they're just little people, simple people, they called themselves. >> they play on that. it's pure manipulation. it's fantastic. >> you don't believe that they are simple people? >> they are simple people. this is the problem. we believe that they play on this to try to obtain sympathy from the public. >> reporter: the family lawyers

language preert le guennec used to describe the works, which they say could only have come from an art expert. but the retired electrician denies the accusation. he says he wrote every word himself. these works by picasso were deemed so valuable they immediately were seized and brought here for safekeeping, one of the most secure places in the country, the bank of france. this is the fort knox of france, the country's g kept here too. in february 2015 the le guennecs went on trial. there wasn't enough evidence to prove they stole the art. so prosecutors charged them with possessing stolen property. witnesses who knew pablo picasso and his wife, jacqueline, testified it was impossible anyone would get such a generous gift from the master. >> the le guennecs were given a two-year suspended sentence for possession of stolen property.
