good morning. clocks ticking. with just eight days to go until the election, the fbi obtains a warrant to search a reported 650,000 e-mails on a computer owned by anthony weiner and hillary clinton's top aide, huma abedin. the race thrown into chaos. accusations flying. >> i think that's called the mother lode. >> so no matter what is thrown at us, we need to stay focused on our goal. >> this morning, the fbi under pressure for more clarity with time quickly running out. breaking overnight. suspected gunman in a string of violent crimes in oklahoma is dead. the massive week-long manhunt ending in a high-speed chase and shoot-out with police. how investigators finally

the cubs back in it with a nail-biter win against the indians. the world series now heading back to cleveland where one team's long wait will come to an end. and, costume party on the plaza. we dressed up as everything from "star wars" to super heroes, to iconic characters from "snl." so who will we be this year? our all-star reveal "today," monday, october 31st, 2016. >> announcer: from nbc news with being th this is "today" with matt lauer and savannah guthrie. >> hello, everyone. welcome to "today," a monday, halloween morning. i don't know whether i'm more excited about the fact that we're going to get to go out there and reveal our costumes or that there is more baseball to be played this season. >> cubbies are still in it.

>> going back to cleveland. it is going to be a lot of fun. >> how is your back? i know when you wear high heels sometimes you get that lower back thing? just thinking of what you're going to be for halloween. >> don't give anything away. all right. let's start with the state of the race and some bombshells with just eight days to go. the fbi set to begin searching through a report 650,000 e-mails found on anthony weiner's laptop. they are looking for any connection to the investigation into hla server. >> so as that controversy plays out, a in you poll from abc news and the washingt"washington pos the race tighter than ever, just one point separating clinton from trump, which is a t statistical dead heat. hillary clinton will be in observe obser ohio. afternoon. mike pence and donald trump are heading to michigan and florida.

beginning with nbc national correspondent peter alexander. >> reporter: hey, good morning to you. no matter what to you, if anything new, fbi agents find on that laptop, the fbi director's announcement is certainly jolting this race. at this point it is still unclear whether there will be any legal impact here but the political consequences are already playing out with donald trump hyping the news and hillary clinton and her allies describing the director's movement forward as wrong a over the weekend, the fbi will begin poring through a reported 650,000 e-mails found on a laptop belonging to anthony weiner and his estranged wife, top clinton aide, huma abedin. the fbi searching for any e-mails possibly relating to the investigation into clinton's private server. with just days to go before the election, the fbi's stunning announcement is igniting a fierce partisan brawl. the senate's top democrat, harry

accusing him of possibly viol violating the hatch act which bars government officials from using their position to influence an election. writing, through your parts arcses, you ma i have broken the law. even attacking comey for having a double standard insisting he's in possession of "explosive information" about ties between trump, his advisors, and the russian government. a claim trump and the russians deny. this as hillary clinton blasts comey for reviving the e-mail controversy whilero details in his pet lletter to congress friday. >> it is not just strange, it is unprecedented and it is deeply troubling because voters deserve to get full and complete facts. >> reporter: former attorney general eric holder seems to agree writing in "the washington post," "it is incumbent on director comey or leadership of

uncertainty he's created before election day." it all comes as they investigate anthony weiner, his estranged wife noticeably off the trail this weekend. trump reveling in the news. >> we never thought we were going to say thank you to anthony weiner. >> reporter: while trump tries to capitalize, clinton's team is urging comey provide clarity. >> the issue here is if he doesn't come out and get all the information on the table, he's going to let anyone, any theory take the day. >> reporter: and aggressively trying to power ahead. >> we won't be distracted, no matter what our opponents throw at us. we're not going to be knocked off course. with more than 20 million votes already cast, both sides are furiously trying to motivate their supporters. >> the first female president of the united states! >> reporter: clinton show something up at a j. lo concert, trump eyeing three

>> america is triired of waitin. the moment is now. we're never going to have another chance. forget four years from now. it's not going to happen. >> reporter: that 21 million-plus -- million-plus, believe it or not -- early votes at this time is already a record turnout. it is likely that a third of the expected vote in those states has already been cast. >> peter, thank you very much who's been working his sources at justice. pete, good morning. >> good morning. fbi agents are beginning to sort through the newly discovered e-mails. it is a top priority now for the fbi. while it could take weeks, officials say there is some chance it could be over quickly. late sunday a federal judge gave the fbi approval to go through the thousands of e-mails written by clinton aide huma abedin that

narrowing those down to just during the time hillary clinton was secretary of state and then they'll weed out any that weren't about government business, using software to search for duplicates they've already found during investigation of the clinton e-mail server and any that remain will be checked for classified information. officials say there is no way now to tell how long this will take but if it does go quickly, and in the event nothing classified is found, the fbi could say so within the next days. it all depends how many e-mails are duplicates and how many are new to investigators. the fbi faces new questions this morning about the timeline for notifying director comey about the e-mails. some say agents first noticed the abedin e-mails earlier in the month. fbi agents government wean you're government to check for alleged sexting. it was only recently officials say the potential significance of those e-mails became clear. savannah?

let's bring in nicolle wallace, steve kornacki and msnbc chief ari melber. good morning. back to 2015 when bernie sanders famously said at that debate with hillary clinton, americans are sick and tired of your damn e-mails and what are we talking about now with eight days to go until the election. the question is, is it an october distraction or an october game changer. >> well, it is an october surprise. i think you start at the rig is hers. but the question that none of us here knows the answer to is have voters taken this into account already? we know this will excite and animate and thrill the trump voter. we know this will depress and discourage hillary clinton supporters, make them incredibly anxious. what we don't know is all those voters -- i wouldn't even call them undecided voters. they're disillusioned voters. they're people who don't really like either choice. will that push them one way or the other.

>> ari , i assume what fbi agens came to comey said we need to search this laptop. he thought that's going to get out, i might as well write this letter. on the other hand, the letter is so vague that it has the same effect, partial information that's out there that anybody can use to their advantage. >> right. on the election i think this headline clearly is not good for hillary clinton because it says clinton and fbi. but articles over the course of the weekend going into monday morning, it is not bad for hillary clinton because the letter, vague as you pointed out, didn't say they found anything yet. they just want to look. whether jim comey got too far out over his skis is a bag question in washington. >> it is vague but it is a little bit like hiding a piece of cheese in your desk drawer at work. whether you intend it to cause a commotion at not, sooner or later everybody is talking about it. >> everybody is talking about it. jim comey made choices.

leaks did that it is anthony weiner and huma abedin. the ultimate question is did jim comey do more harm than good even if he did what he felt was prup prudent. >> you go the to love washington, right? the very people the democrats who are extolling the independence of jim comey when he said i'm not going to prosecute, are now saying, shame on him. and the republicans, trump, who was ripping the fbi for its lackluster investigation, now jim comey's a hero. want a friend in washington, get a canine variety. it is the one that won't turn on you. a week ago the same poll that has hillary clinton only ahead by one point had her ahead by 12 points. they're both wrong. she was never ahead 12 points. she's probably not within a one-point race anymore. polls were probably always about four to six points. what this is going to test is the durability of her lead going into this scandal.

board in a second but let me ask you about donald trump. does he have to play this hand a little more carefully than he's already started to play it? >> what he has to do is something he has been incapable doing over the long haul for this entire campaign and that is be disciplined. he has been handed the dream message for the homestretch of the campaign. if he can stay on the attack and stay focused on this message and not take to twitter at 3:00 in the morning and pick a fight with somebody else, not get baited into a fight that's off topic and creates a brand-new distraction. seems like trump. that's been a very difficult thing to do. >> you have new polls in the battlegrounds but they were taken before this comey news. >> we can show you. you've got that poll we showed at the top that shows a one-point race. that was showing there may be new enthusiasm from republican voters. before all of this started here is what the road to 270 looked like. two new nbc polls coming out just yesterday. again, these do not take into

you see hillary clinton here in florida ahead by a point. basically a dead-even race there in florida. this is a in must-win race for donald trump. then in north carolina, again must-win state for donald trump. this is the challenge for trump. this is why he needs to story to turn the campaign around. six points behind in a must-win state. again, if you are donald trump, when we say you need a jolt from this news, you need every state that's grey on this map right now you need to win, then you need to also pick up one of these blue states right now. you need a surprise than 20 million votes already cast. >> ari, steve, nicolle, thank you all very much. not used to having three here. >> we'll have a little more on this later including the closer look at the relationship between hillary clinton, huma abedin and anthony weiner. now to a week-long manhunt

this week-long manhunt is finally over. this morning michael vance is dead after police received a tip from a property owner who discovered him camping out. just as police feared, vance did the no go down without a fight. >> reporter: overnight, the manhunt for michael vance coming to a dramatic end after the oklahoma fugitive opened fire on police, not once, but twice. >> about 8:30 this evening the sheriff of dewey county attempted to make a traffic stop on a white flatbed pickup. vehicle stopped. the driver exited the vehicle and started shooting. the sheriff was hit. >> reporter: authorities say the 38-year-old vance fled after that shoot-out and following a wild 25-minute car chase by highway practice toatrol office exchanged gunfire with police again. >> they report vance just north of here where there was a pretty

vance was killed at the scene. >> reporter: a wepolice officer the first on scene -- >> i was thinking about family. i didn't know if i was going to see them again. >> reporter: vance shot hampton inn his foot and hit another officer in the leg before police say he took off in a stolen truck and posted this taunting going [ bleep ] live. >> reporter: vance is accused are car vjacking a woman, murdering his under a and ur-- aunt and uncle and recently been accused of molesting a child. >> it is a relief for the

several days. >> reporter: we are told that final shoot-out with police was fierce and lasted 20 to 30 minutes. the oklahoma sheriff who was injured last night is expected to be okay. matt? savannah? >> blake mccoy, thank you. italy's prime minister promising to rebuild after the most powerful earthquake to hit that country in more than three decades. the 6.6 magnitude quake struck about 100 miles northeast of rome on sunday toppling historic landmarks. aerial footage shows the widespread destruction. at least 20 people were injured. the region already struggling to recover from a series of quakes, including one in august that killed nearly 300 people. frightening scene in virginia last night. at least 22 people were hurt when a car plowed through fans. a driver was attempting to post another vehicle in post-race traffic when it struck the crowd of people. nine people were taken to the hospital with non-life threatening injuries and the

custody. the night of high drama in chicago. cubs facing elimination eked out a big win to send the world series back to cleveland. nbc's ron mott is at historic wrigley field for us. ron, good morning to you. >> reporter: hey, matt, good morning to you. cubs last night came back with a dramatic win. a must-win victory in game five in front of a raucous crowd here at wrigley field. it is back to cleveland now, still alive. >> it's going to left center, at the wall -- it's gone! >> reporter: not ready to hibernate for the winter just yet, the cubs scored three runs in the fourth inning, hanging on to win game five 3-2. the cubs lean on the red-hot arm of chapman to get the last eight outs of the game throwing nearly as many pitches as he ever has.

first world series victory at wrigley field since 1945. for many fans in chicago, the world series returning here has been a moment to remember, so long in coming, 71 years since wrigley field last hosted, so fleeting at the same time. memories captured by steady streams of people. though they survive to play another day, it wasn't easy. after john hamm trolled the crowd in rivals st. louis cardinals gear causing a growl or two. >> there in my mind we are winning three games in a row. >> reporter: chicago let loose. >> go cubbies! >> reporter: ink flowed. tremors buzzed. >> mr. dan ross, i'd like to belt this one out for you. >> reporter: rocker eddie vetter separated cubs catcher david ross and comedian bill murray

>> now back to cleveland where the series began, the indians hoping to win one more to claim crown for the first time since 1948. the cubs needing two to erase 108 years of banal withoseball championship. joe maddon wants his cubs to dress up for halloween. trophy could be good. >> i wish we knew severe weatom had tickets. >> i'm going, baby. i'm going to do the forecasting for batting practice. >> wow! >> be kind of cool. i'm excited. >> it's a scam. >> this is a boondoggle! i'm just going to admit it -- i love being me! i can't help it!

a type of irregular heartbeat not caused by a heart valve problem. but i won't go after anything with less than my best. so if i can go for something better than warfarin, i'll do that too. eliquis. eliquis reduced the risk of stroke better than warfarin. plus, it had significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. eliquis had both. that's what i wanted to know. don't stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. eliquis can cause serious fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. and it may take longer than usual for any bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis make increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. i may not be going for the big one, but i'm still going for my best. and for eliquis.

transformation. >> that's right. >> for halloween. we're going to run and jump into our costumes in just a few minutes. but first, here are the news headlines at 8:00." good morning. we begin with the race for the white house. i'm hallie jackson in warren, michigan where donald trump supporters are there are fired up for his rally here. but the big headline of the day -- the fbi now looking at 650,000 newly discovered e-mails according to a source familiar with the inst inquiry surrounding hillary clinton's private server. the fbi director himself now under fire after the latest twist in an already-unprecedented campaign. today, democrats finding a new target in the battle for the white house. fbi director james comey. >> the fbi director took an unprecedented action. >> this is unprecedented. >> it's not just strange, it's unprecedented and it is deeply troubling.

accusing comey possibly breaking federal law by telling congress so close to the election about new e-mails related to the inquiry into hillary clinton's private server. part of a complicated story that intertwines some of this year's most explosive political plot lines. here's the latest development. the fbi today has a warrant to go through e-mails found during a separate investigation into anthony weiner accused of sexting an underaged girl. the e-mails come from a family estranged wife, huma abedin, one of clinton's closest aides. the clinton campaign sees comey's move as purely political. >> you believe this could cost you the election? >> i don't think so. >> reporter: now clinton is demanding comey share more. to show these new e-mails aren't bombshells, but duds, maybe even duplicates of what the fbi already knows. republicans want comey to give more details, too, for a different reason -- to confirm their suspicion clinton did

may not until well after the election. that hasn't stopped donald trump from trying to capitalize. >> now the fbi has found -- you're not going to believe this one. this one just happened. another 650,000 e-mails. i think that's called the mother lode. >> reporter: to his campaign, it's an october surprise that's surprisingly helpful with the race getting tighter in nationally just eight days out. and new this morning, a law enforcement source familiar with the investigation says abedin and her attorneys have told the fbi she didn't know these e-mails were on that computer. so will in pe any of this move needle with voters? a new poll taken entirely after the story broke that shows clinton with a three-point lead

so the bottom line -- this race is tight, but not dramatically altered by this story. at least not yet. matt? >> hallie, thank you very much. week-long manhunt is over this morning for a double murder suspect in oklahoma. during the night officials say michael vance shot and wounded an officer and then fled and led police on a half-hour chase in western oklahoma. he was later killed in a shoot-out. vance had been wanted on multiple charges, including the murders of two relatives and the wounding of two police officers. a week ago he had media. a desperate rescue effort is under way to reach 33 miners trapped deep underground in southwestern china. a gas explosion ripped through the shaft where they were working. their condition is not known. at least two other miners have been rescued. many of china's mines are outdated and are among the deadliest in the world. and an unusual moment from the nfl yesterday. this one is getting a lot of attention on social media.

orleans. seahawks safety earl thomas scooped up a fumble, then ran it back for a touchdown. well, after tossing the ball into the stands, a very excited thomas celebrated by giving side judge alex kemp a big hug. kemp was not feeling the love. he threw a flag. thomas penalized for 15 yards. as you can hear. for unsportsmanlike conduct. stan saints went on to win the game 25-20. >> so there is no hugging in football? hugging in football. the strange thing just spotted in an alaskan river that has people asking, what is that? and get in our final that was invigorating! you're probably wondering why i've just carved a giant wooden tiger. well, the answer is that a real one would maul me. i've crafted dr. whiskers here as a visual aid to show you that should you visit the lot,

like that. come here to buy a car. dr. whiskers won't pounce. nobody will. ? ? you said you wanted to feel better about your cereal. general mills big g cereals hear you. that's why we say "yes" to whole grain as our first ingredient. and "no way" to high fructose corn syrup. so no matter what your favorite is, you can feel good about general mills big g cereals. emerge restored. fortified. packed with b vitamins, antioxidants, electrolytes plus more vitamin c than 10 oranges. why not feel this good everyday?

hillary clinton: far too many families today don't earn what they need and don't have the opportunities they deserve. kids, childcare they can trust and afford, equal pay for women, and jobs they can really live on. people ask me what will be different if i'm president? well kids and families have been the passion of my life and they will be the heart of my presidency. i'm hillary clinton and i approve this message. coming up on "look! famous people!" we catch flo, the progressive girl,

woman: busted! [ laughter ] right afterwards we caught her riding shotgun with a mystery man. oh, yeah! [ indistinct shouting ] is this your chauffeur? what?! no, i was just showing him how easy it is to save with snapshot from progressive. you just plug it in and it gives you a rate based on your driving. does she have insurance for being boring? [ light laughter ] laugh bigger. [ laughter ] i am here for your heads! [ bump ] ugh. i'm the horseless headsman. i think you mean the headless horseman? no. have a snickers?. why? because you get confused when you're hungry. better? better. [ male announcer ] you're not you when you're hungry?.

we're back. it is halloween morning and time for what's "trending" today. want to talk about the centrality preference. do you know about this? >> oh, yeah. >> what is it? >> don't put me on the spot. >> you walk into a bathroom. right? which can be frightening enough. >> like a public restroom? >> mine is very clean. you walk into a public restroom you have to to use. >> i have a theory. >> okay? >> i always go to the first one because i think nobody chooses the first one. >> i go to the last one. >> i go to the last one, too. >> i check them all to see which is the cleanest. >> what you are avoiding is the centrality preference. lot of people think i'm going to go to the one in the middle. i'm going to avoid the first one, avoid the last one, i'm going to the one in the middle. but the problem is because so many people think that way, that tends to be the dirtiest stall. >> oh!

so, do not go to the middle stall. this according to "business insider." they've done the homework on this. go to the first stall or the last stall instead. you'll find, a, nobody's in there -- which is always good when nobody's in there -- and it will be cleaner than the others. >> full into the full hazmat suit. do the luminol process. what would halloween be without a possible sighting of the loch ness monster. this video was captured in alaska by employees of the bureau of land management. this is some sort of object. looks to be 12 to 15 feet long. he's just swirling around in the water. what employees said initially is they thought this must be some kind of rope. but others have suggested

it looks kind of terrible. >> it does. looks scary. >> you don't have anything to judge it by. carson, halloween edition. hit it. >> this morning we're going to show you how the stars celebrated halloween. we're going to start with those that you may not actually recognize. this any idea? >> no. >> that is actually katy perry. making that transformation. unbelievable. everythi everybody online doing a double take. they're dabbing and everything! my goodness. take a good look. bloody nurse's outfit. you know this person very well. >> we do? >> that is martha stewart.
