this is the "cbs weekend news." >> quijano: good evening, i'm elaine quijano. with 23 days to go until the election, cbs news checked in with voters in 13 key states that will likely decide the i race. our new battleground tracker poll shows hillary clinton has widened her lead among women in those states. while donald trump has lost a vote of some republican women. overall, republican voters want trump despite his recentd problems. errol barnett takes us through the numbers with our elections director anthony salvanto in washington. i >> so anthony, what's changed in the 13 battleground states in just the last few weeks.s >> across these states which w will decide the election, hill rae clinton has jumped out to a six point lead. she was tied last month. but what is driving this, errol, is a big shift among women voters. she was up five points among women last month. a

that's a significant change and we could be headed for what might be the largest gender gapd we've ever seen. >> and why? i mean this is following what was said by donald trump in the tapes that were released. t >> yeah, donald trump has lost support among women, among republican women as well. so it goes beyond partisanship a little bit.nd and the poll finds that 70% of p voters feel that now donald trump does not respect women. what could be trouble for him going forward are these moderate the kind of voters that he needs now to start winning. >> because of this some republican leaders have distanced themselves from trump. how do the voters see that. >> well, the republican rank and file would like the party to get behind donald trump, seven out of ten say they should get behind him and very few want g them to pushback against donald trump. this is a narrative we've seen actually throughout the year where republican voters don't care very much what their party

faces challenges of her own with the lingering email controversy. how is that resonating?ov >> voters say the contents of those emails have made them feel like hillary clinton says t different things in private than she says in public. and part of that is wrapped up in her low numbers on telling the truth, that those continue to be very low numbers for her. >> now we are approaching the homestretch of this election. ap let's listen to what the running mates had to say today. >> donald trump has a message that is enlivening and it's-- it's-- it is resonating with people all across this which and we're going to field the next 23 days to carry it through election day.ne >> i've been saying from the beginning that i thought this would be a close election.at we are seeing some data about voting, whether it'sat registrations, early voting and requests for absentee ballots. in key battleground states that we like.

anyone's mind. >> most people watch the debate, rooting for their favorite candidate. it's like a sporting event where people have a favorite team. but there are about a quarter of buters who say yes, something in the debate might change their minds. but they say, it has to be big. >> and 73% say it will not change their minds. anthony salvanto, thanks for breaking it all down for us, elaine? >> quijano: thanks to ourai elections team in washington. of course there will be more an trump on the ballots. voters in washington state, california, nevada and maine will decide on stricter gun measures including write in background checks for gun purchases.cl julianna goldman has more on this. >> after mass shootings in newtown. >> the amendment is not agreed to. >> san bernardino. >> the motion is not agreed to. >> and orlando. >> the motion is not agreed to. >> reporter: universal background checks have failed in congress.ck but it could be a whole

voters will see a very similar proposal on their ballots in november.os david trahan runs the main gun rights organizations and opposes the measure. >> i could easily be charged with a felony and lose my right to own fire arms simply for letting a friend borrow a fire arm for one thing. >> yet he is already admitting defeat, in part, he says because he can't compete against the millions spent on a gun control group spent by former mayor bloomberg. b >> if he gets a win here, he can >> bloomberg's group has raised $3.7 million this year compared to just over $420,000 by the national rifle association. while bloomberg declined an interview he said this to "face the nation" in 2014. >> the vast preponderance of the public does not want criminals, minors or people with psychiatric problems to be able to buy guns. >> reporter: polls show an overwhelming number of americanl

so in some states a ballot initiative allows voters to decide instead of lawmakers who fear the nra. david farmer is a gun owner without runs the bloomberg supported group in maine. >> do you think other states cam see this and say here are ways to get around the gun lobby,wa does it shake the armor. >> the power remains with the voters. if she want change, you can make it happen. >> in 2014, that's exactly what happened in washington state. bloomberg's group and otherser spent over $10 million compared to the nra's $489,000. sources from gun rights groups g tell us the reason the nra didn't spends more was they knew they were going to lose. and that's trahan's fear for november. >> we're going to be a truly david versus goliath fight. >> julianna goldman, washington. >> over the weekend, the deatho toll from hurricane matthew climbed to at least 50 people in

north carolina, where most drowned in cars that were submerged by floods. remnants of a typhoon hit the pacific northwest this weakened. tornadoes touched down in oregon friday. and there is another round of storms blew in saturday night, forecasters were expecting hurricane force winds topping 80 miles an hour. turns out the storms didn't have that much punch but they still did plenty of damage. ben tracy is in seattle. >> holy moly. >> the winds were strong enough to topple trees and power lines. leaving tens of thousands without power. and a big mess to clean up. >> when this fast moving storm hit seattle it churned up puget sound with wind gusts 40 to 50 miles an hour. this is the pacific northwest and even this storm did not stop people from coming out to take a

id was riding out the storm in singular style. >> what are you doing out here. why are you not at home. >> well, he with wanted to come out and do some storm watching. >> it is hitting new the face. >> yes it is. very salty. >> this massive storm system fueled by the remnant of ate powerful pacific typhoon could have been much worse. it weakened unexpectedly and tracked west sparing seattle the worst winds. wo the national weather service and some local meteorologists are taking some heat on social media for overhyping the storm. but if it's your hou that the tree ends up on, you probably t think this storm was powerful enough. elaine? >> quijano: ben tracy, thank you. the suburbs of northern new jersey, miles from new york city, are black bear country. this past week theres with a controversial bow and arrow bear hunt which appears to have taken

pedestrian walk. jamie yuccas reports. >> reporter: pedals the black bear first became an internet sensation two years ago. seen here wandering almost human-like through northern new jersey neighborhoods. he had injuries to his paws, so wildlife experts believe he spent very little time on all fours. >> that is a bipedal bear. >> he was often captured on camera. but animal rights activists say a more violent shot likely ended his life. one with a bow and arrow. during last week's black bear hunt. >> horrible.nt any time i think about it makes me sick to my stomach. >> chris often saw him in the neighborhood. >> an innocent bear minds his own business, searching for food, never got into trouble, never harmed anybody. and you have this idiot who tracked him, to hunt him to kill him. h >> reporter: people also expressed their outrage on a facebook page dedicated to pedals. they write this is just cruel,

bear that people enjoyed seeingi what is wrong with people. somewhere are making death threats against whoever may have killed the bear. a hunter has not been named.wh new jersey fish and wildlife n officials say they may never be able to make a positive identification on the bearsi believed to be pedals because he had never been tagged by the agency. a petition to stop the new p jersey black bear hunt had more than 24,000 signatures. >> this is the first legal bow and arrow bear hunt in new by the end of the hunt on saturday more than 430 bears t were killed. elaine, there will be anotherrs hunt here in early december. >> quijano: jaime yuccas thank you. coming up next, the hurricane in haiti. a reporter's notebook from the disaster area. h haiti. haiti. a reporter's notebook from the
