morning. >> very good reason. >> i wouldn't say he is off. craig is working today. hard at work. >> did you see the interview with craig and his wife? craig at one point mouthed it. >> we will soon find out. we will get into that and keep you posted if anything happens. let's get into the state of the race with the election now three days away. hillary clinton pulling out all the stops on friday night bringing in beyonce and she will concentrate on florida and pennsylvania today. meanwhile, donald trump is criscrossing the country. he starts the day in florida and heads to north carolina and colorado and nevada. let's begin with nbc's national correspondent peter alexander in tampa where donald trump will hold a rally this morning. good morning, peter. >> reporter: sheinelle, good morning.

donald trump will go all over the country trying to capitalize on the last minute surge as hillary clinton tries to slam the door on the republican nominee. ? freedom ? >> reporter: music's queen beyonce with a surprise appearance in ohio. >> look how far we've come from having no voice to okay the brink of making history. >> reporter: alongside husband jay-z. >> with your ceiling to crash once and for all. >> reporter: clinton energyiizi in cleveland, where she is strong with her base. trump's strategy is different. >> when we win on november 8th, we are going to drain the swamp. >> reporter: a raucous rally in pennsylvania. even taking a track at clinton's star-studded night.

jay-z. >> reporter: the outsider touring rural america trying to bring in white working class voters. >> our trump administration will stop the jobs from leaving ohio and america. >> reporter: rally supporters in north carolina could determine his successor criticizing trump's comments and disqualifying. >> imagine any of the things he had said. >> reporter: misrepresenting his treatment of a protester. >> he spent so much time screaming at the protester and frankly it was a disgrace. >> reporter: in fact, the president offend protester's ri speak. >> i told you to be focused. you are not focused. >> reporter: the company that owns the "national enquirer"

former playboy model for a story with an affair with the republican nominee. then did not publish it. the wall street journal saying the claim of the affair is totally untrue. so back to the campaign trail. you have hillary clinton trying to bring in the star power. for the clinton campaign, they hope to go forward and motivating voter was a strong ground game operation. million where there is one early voting site. to get tickets to the jay-z concert, you had to go to the board of elections. the only place to vote early. now clinton will be in cleveland tomorrow with lebron james. >> thank you, peter. let's bring in nbc news

we'll go into our battleground and see that hillary clinton has a 274-180 lead over donald trump. donald trump has to be able to get to 270. so how does he be able to do that? first he's got to win all the unsigned, all the toss-up states. you give him flea -- you give him florida, north carolina, ohio, put utah and arizona in his column hampshire, what happens, that only puts him at 263 electoral votes. so he needs to win something else. and one way, place he can do that is in the midwest. he could try to flip a michigan, say. that puts him above 270 electoral votes. or if he could -- you could give him pennsylvania, that puts him at 283. so he has to be able to tap into hillary clinton's midwest, blue firewall that's going on.

to be able just to be able to -- if she can win a florida, say she wins a north carolina, she's well above 300 electoral votes. that would be a decisive win for her. but say she isn't able to win florida, say she isn't able to win north carolina, she is able to hold on to pennsylvania, what becomes so key is either winning one of new hampshire or one of nevada. the nevada early vote looks very good for hillary clinton so far. that really is the game. more paths to 270 electoral votes hillary clinton has that donald trump -- donald trump has to do something to shake up the race. that's why he's traveling everywhere across the country to be able to do that. >> thanks, miami hurricaark mur. to joy reed and sarah isgar flores, former spokeswoman for carly fiorina. good morning. >> good morning. >> three days to go.

>> we were commiserating about how happy we will be on the 9th. >> will it be over? we'll see. both campaigns have new ads. let's talk about it on the other side. take a look. ? the eye of the tiger the fire dancing through the fire ? ? cause i am a champion ? >> the only people brave enough to vote out this corrupt establishment is you, the american people. >> so there you go. let's talk about the message of driving home in these final days. joy? >> first of all, the difference in the ads. you know, hillary clinton has the pop culture, the weight of pop culture on her side. when queen bey, when beyonce is out there for you and jay-z, the culture is with you. and you just hear -- you heard katy perry. i think the message from hillary clinton now is to have her base get excited, if you're a young woman, get excited about there being a first woman president. her message right now is uplift, pumping up the base. >> donald?

lose is if they're cheating us. he's still trying to run on rage and run on paranoia. >> donald also got a new messenger -- melania trump was on the trail this week. this is the first time we've seen her give a speech since the convention. the goal, to aconnect with the suburban women voters. did she achieve that goal? >> most of in is baked. we've seen the early numbers coming out about the way the problem they have is we're seeing what the polls would have shown this is college-educated women have had a 31-point swing since 2012. they supported mitt romney in 2012. this time they are swinging heavily to hillary clinton. if he can't stem that tide between that and the hispanic vote, women and hispanics are why he's going to lose the race. the early numbers are otherwise in his favor, frankly, far more than we would have expected based on her vaunted grahound

since the swing in 2012, i don't see that path working if states like nevada and florida become must wins. >> i want to see on melania, joy, one of melania's main messages that she would want to address if trump is elected is cyber-bullying. many say her husband could be coined the commander in chief of the twitter beatdowns. >> yes. ending -- >> i would say so. >> absolutely. home. and i think sarah makes a good point. this is a guy what called out a woman reporter and had the crowd turn on her. it's ironic they would put her out that way. i don't understand why they did it and why were they in philadelphia when they're going

>> hillary clinton's been going to michigan, a state she should have had in the bank, if that tells you anything. if they're worried about michigan, that should make everyone a little bit worried on the democratic team. >> trump talks about the clinton team being investigated -- >> they're scare tactics. >> republicans are saying it. i think one of the things that's dangerous for democracy, criminalizing politics. republicans have been clear that they plan that paralyze a clinton administration with investigations. now have a politicized fbi. this is not something to cheer because a politicized law enforcement apparatus in d.c. could be turned on anyone. republicans televising they're not accepting the results of the

if not launch impeachment hearings within a couple of months of her administration. it's outrageous. >> on the flip side, we know that the emails on anthony weiner's laptop aren't all duplicates. we know that qatar gave a million dollars to the foundation she never disclosed. this is all hillary's problem. she's the one who chose not to disclose all these things, wanted to be evasive. and -- >> so wouldn't it, qatar, the country in the middle east, gave a million dollars to the con notdisclosed to --not disclosed to the state department which she said she would do. >> that's right. this fills her narrative -- >> the fact that we're doing this three days -- >> three days. >> don't wait another day -- >> tonigdon't wasn't indicate. you can continue this in your living rooms like everybody else. >> watch "a.m. joy" this morning

on election night. our coverage begins at 7:00 eastern on tuesday. now to a horrifying case in south carolina where police discovered a body in the same area where authorities say a missing woman was held captive for months. nbc's gabe gutierrez has more from south carolina. >> reporter: good morning. this is the fence the in property where deputies say it haed serial killer. the suspect so far is accused of kidnapping, but prosecutors say more charges are likely. this morning, the search resumes for more potential victims on a sprawling compound in south carolina after another chilling discovery. >> we did find a body in a shallow grave on this piece of property. >> reporter: it came after sheriff's deputies first found kayla brown alive.

charlie carver. authorities say brown was chained by her neck and ankle in a padlocked metal storage container. a representative for her family said they were asking for privacy. >> this is orific and unimage -- horrific and unimaginable. >> reporter: the owner of the property has been charged with kidnapping. he's a realtor and registered sex offender. prosecutors expect more charges after brown told investigators this -- shoot st. charles david carver. >> reporter: brown believes there are at least four bodies buried on the property. so far, the one found friday has not been identified. >> it's too unreal for your brain to comprehend. >> reporter: mckenzie durham has known carver since they were teenagers. >> something out of a horror film. not something you expect to hear about in real life. >> reporter: a neighbor says he kept to himself and installed

>> unusual to have a fenced in 95 acres in a property like this. >> reporter: investigators say they ended up halloweoning in o property by tracking kayla brown's cell phone. the search continues, and investigators are looking into when the suspect could be tied to other missing persons cases in the area. chanel? >> thank you. courtroom where a former charleston police officer is on trial. accused of murder in the shooting death of a black man that was all captured on camera. the victim was shot while he was running away. the jury hearing on friday from the eyewitness who took that video. here's nbc with more. >> reporter: raw emotion in a south carolina courtroom as the mother of walter scott recalled her final phone call with her

excruciating pain. a couple of times. >> reporter: scott was shot and killed by then-north charleston police officer michael slager in april of 2015 after scott ran during a traffic stop. a jury of 11 white men and women and one black man is tasked with deciding if slager is guilty of murder or if he acted in self-defense. >> when walter scott ran and resisted, he should have been prosecuted for it. s >> he didn't just run. he physically and forcefully resist resisted to the extent that they were both fighting on the ground. >> reporter: the jury saw cell phone video showing slager drawing his gun as scott runs away from him. slager then fires eight shots,

an object, it's not known if it was his taser, and appears to drop it next to scott's body. the video was filmed by fayton santana. >> didn't want to be involved. at the same time, my morals and values didn't allow me to do that. because it was an injustice, what i saw. >> reporter: scott's death was one in a sears of violent confrontations between law enforcement and african-american citizens, fueling protests againster scott's family continues to ask for peace. >> we're going to sit back and pray that justice will do their job. at the end hopefully we will get justice. >> reporter: slager faces 30 years in life if convicted. nbc news. now to a dramatic ruling in the case against "rolling stone" magazine. a judge fining "rolling stone," its publisher, and a reporter

gang rain on the university of virginia campus. anne thompson has more. >> reporter: nicole arama left court vindicated. a federal jury fining "rolling stone," its publisher and reporter acted with malice, defaming aramo in its discredited story of rain on campus, but the supposed gang rain of a woman identified only -- rape of a woman identified aramo claimed it portrayed her as a villain, more interested in protecting the university's reputation than helping jackie. >> it feels good to have a jury of nicole's peers come back and vindicate what we have known from day one. >> not one more. >> reporter: the 2014 article sparked a national discussion on college sexual assault. reporter sabrina ruben-erdley promoted the story "morning

report to the administration, and the administration did nothing. >> reporter: "rolling stone" retracted the story in april, 2015, after news organizations and police found no evidence to back up the accusations. despite the article's many flaws, the conversation continues today with a national campaign to stop sexual assault on campus. >> it's on us, all of us. >> to stop sexual assault. >> reporter:" rolling stone" wrote "we deeply regret the to anyone hurt by them, including ms. aramo." aramo seeks $7.5 million in financial damages that are still to be determined. for "today," anne thompson, nbc news, new york. a major blow to new jersey governor chris christie. one of donald trump's most important surrogates. two former top aides to the governor were convicted of conspiracy and fraud friday in the so-called bridgegate scandal. the charges stem from a scheme

under a trump administration, we'll stop the jobs from leaving ohio and from leaving america. >> reporter: in these final 72 hours, donald trump is going to make ten stops in eight states from nevada to wisconsin, a state that has voted democratic every year since 1984. the real goal, the strategy is a rural once, in parts, to try to boost white working class turnout, to makeup -- to offset some ois and sheinelle, we have now learned that on the leave of the election, donald trump will make his final stop at a rally in new hampshire, the state that helped him notch up his first primary win. >> that's true. all right, peter, thank you. and hillary clinton will also begin her day in the state of florida, after bringing out some major star power last night with beyonce and jay-z. today, katy perry will be joining clinton in philadelphia. i have a feeling they're going to roar. and nbc's kasie hunt is in miami this morning with more.

felix the cat was the very first character balloon that we've had in the macy's thanksgiving day parade, but back then, we didn't use helium. back then, balloons came down the street on polls. and we're going to recreate that, just like it was 1927. and this year, we've got some new technology, as well. we've got a balloon call ed tricksy, who has accordion legs. so as the parade goes on and we celebrate an anniversary, we design new things. dog, and we're looking back with trixie. but it is our 90th. assist very, very big celebration for us. there's lots of new stuff. if you're tuning into the parade, you're going to see a glorious opening with the muppets. we have incredible talent and the parade will end with none other than tony bennett. >> that's fantastic an nice mix of new and old technology. amy, thanks so much for giving us a little preview thrk. and of course, you can watch the parade right here on nbc, live

your water breaks. number three, any bleeding or number four, if you don't feel the baby moving as you normally do. that is the time to call the doctor. >> i know i'm well taken care of in the hospital, but i'm nervous for the first moments at home. do you have a list of tips that every parent should know? >> the first thing is trust your instincts. everybody who say parent was a new parent at one time. you trust your gut. you will b pediatrician that you know you can trust. do your homework. speak to your friends with children. you can interview the pediatrician. there is so much information out there. you want to make sure the information you are following has been well researched. i recommend starting with the pediatrician and see if the web site has useful links. ask what they recommend. >> i have a lot of flyers and

birth. which ones are important and which ones can i do without? >> so you will soon learn that parenting is not one size fits all. some families feel comforted by taking a lot of classes. the one class which is important is a cpr class. any care giver should be trained in baby cpr. if you have an emergency at home, that is when you need to know what to do before he help arrives. my sageic journey. parenting is the most incredible experience. having been doing it for 14 years and the more you live in the moment and try not to worry and trust, the more wonderful the experience will be for you. >> so good to hear you say that. >> and those questions don't come close to all of the questions i had for dr. levine.
