z25pmz zi0z y25pmy yi0y there is just one week until the election and katie mcginty is leading the hotly contested race, the senate race in pennsylvania, a new 6 abc franklin and marshall poll and the democrat holds a sizable lead over pat toomey, 47% to 35%

among likely voters. the margin of error here is 5%. that is the senate race. now in the presidential race, pennsylvania voters are pulling for hillary clinton according to the same poll, the democrat leads republican donald trump 49% to 38% among likely voters it is important to note that most of this survey was before word broke out friday of clinton's review or latest review of clinton's emails. 49% to 38% there. meanwhile trump and running mate, mike pence campaigned in king of prussia, trying to demonstrate that pennsylvania is still very much in play. walter perez has that story. >> hundreds of donald trump supporters packed into the double tree hotel to hear the gop nominee hammer away at the affordable care act referred to

as obama care. >> the president says if you like your plan you can keep your plan, if you like your doctor you can keep your doctor, it may go down as one of the great political lies of the century. >> several polls have hillary clinton holding a sizable lead others have them much closer. the latest abc "new york post" poll has trump 46% to clinton 45%. we spoke with a few of these trump supporters that say the gop hopeful is the right person for the job. >> my first election being old enough to vote, i love his spark and like how he want tods make america great again. >> and we spoke to an undecided voter it was important to hear a

trump speech in its entirety. and for me it was refreshing to hear him talk about health care and foreign policy and trade policy as opposed to make america great again and the catch phrases. >> and the importance of pennsylvania and florida. trump is going to the sunshine state for three campaign stops tomorrow coming back to pennsylvania on thursday. walter perez, channel 6 "action news." democratic nominee, hillary clinton will join singer katy perry for a get out and vote performance in philadelphia on saturday. that rally is scheduled for 5:30 at the man center. meanwhile clinton spent this day campaigning in florida. he told a crowd in dade that trump doesn't respect with and he is a bully. and local clinton supporters held a get out and vote rally to get people to the polls next tuesday.

y25pky yi0y this is an individual who mocked a disabled reporter... i don't know what i said, ahh... who attributed a reporter's questions to her menstrual cycle. trump: blood coming out of her...wherever. he is not a person who is equipped in temperament, judgment or character to lead our troops. donald trump has created a toxic atmosphere pitting one group against another. he's a mexican. claiming a person can't do the job because of their race is sort of like the textbook definition of a racist comment. priorities usa action is responsible for the content of this advertising.

priorities usa action is responsible she ate like a pig. trump has said and done...

you can do anything. i moved on her like a [bleep] ...trump's just so disgusting and degrading. it just seems like he's invaded our lives. and he's the republican nominee for president. and republican brian fitzpatrick supported trump. look, we just can't vote for fitzpatrick or trump. house majority pac is responsible for the content of this advertising. philadelphia eagles sure didn't need this. here is jaime apody. josh huff was showing flashes of his potential. and now he is in trouble.

averaging 18 points in his career. and no twin towers for the next few games, simmers host the magic and okafor will not play and embiid will and then embiid sits out and okafor will play. >> sometime we hope in the not too distant future, both will be available and both can split minutes and both can play together but that is not where we are at. we are in the piece meal stage, certainly with jahlil and joel. >> and the world series returned to cleveland for their game six. they could win it. manager francona says it's comforting being at the comforts of home. >> when are you the home team you hit last, you get to use

. so do you have a scientific term for what will happen over the next few days? >> a warm-up. >> she is always prepared. always. >> it's going to get warm a cold front will move in and southerly winds are ahead of it. nothing too technical there, easy to understand. stormtracker 6 live double scan showing no rain out there right now and the action cam in center city we saw a mixture of clouds

and sunshine and sunshine earlier today and the clouds rolling in this afternoon and temperatures right where they should be for this time of year. accuweather highlights show you that tomorrow morning for the commuter forecast, it may take a little longer, the septa strike, at least weather won't pose problems, we'll see sun way few clouds and temperatures on the mild side, with more cloud cover overnight and temperatures not as cold as last night. 6:00, 4 degrees and 8:00 p.m. 50 degrees, a dry commute and not that cold. thursday is when the temperatures really spike ahead of a cold front and i think we have a good shot at tying a lot of record highs. the record high for philadelphia 80 from 1909. and trenton 80 and atlantic city airport 81. what really depends on how much sunshine we get. right now philadelphia 58 degrees and allentown 56 and

trenton 58 and cape may 58 and wilmington 56 degrees, temperatures are pretty uniform and satellite 6 along with action radar showing we have cloud cover over us, but if you look across the midwest, you see clear skies and this is where the winds are out of the southwest. the temperatures look more like early september than early november. cincinnati, 80 for the high and memphis 84 and st. louis 85 and that is the air mass that is migrating our way. future tracker 6 showing tomorrow afternoon warmer than today. 71 degrees in philadelphia, allentown 69 and wildwood 64 and heading into thursday ahead of the cold front we pick up more cloud color and at 1:30, philadelphia already 75 degrees, showers breaking out across the poconos and as the cold front slides through much like sunday a round of showers and gusty thunderstorms right along the i-95 corridor at 5:00 and

sweeping off the coast by 8:00 and the winds of change behind that pulling down much cooler air on friday. so the exclusive accuweather seven-day forecast much warmer tomorrow, much brighter than today with a high of 73 degrees, thursday near record warmth with gusty thunderstorms late in the day and a high of 80 and friday our high only 57 degrees and it's going to feel cooler when you factor in the winds, future tracker showing at 9:00 in the morning wind gusts of 39 miles per hour and heading into the weekend saturday for the unit cup looking good, sun mixing with clouds and 62 and fall back one hour with daylight savings time at night. partly sunny and 62. seasonable and 60 and tuesday of course is election day, fortunately no issues for voters weather wise should be dry and seasonable with a high of 62 all in all pretty nice looking forecast. perhaps transit wise the strike

when government bureaucrats refused to approve a cancer vaccine equally for both girls and boys, i stepped in to change that rule. when my own party held up recovery funds after sandy hit us, i took them on and won. and when veterans were forced to travel out of state for health care, i brought in new local clinics and expanded services. but there's much more to do. my mission is to protect south jersey's way of life. i'm frank lobiondo and i approve this message. no warning, no hearing. it's a lending practice sorcing outrageous, most states banned it. but at the bank founded by pat toomey it was business as usual. forcing small business owners out of their homes. toomey even used his power in the senate to help himself, voting to gut rules that protect us and crack down on big banks. pat toomey. out for himself, not us. dscc is responsible for the content of this advertising.
