8:06 am
>> when we win on november 8th, we are going to drain the swamp. >> reporter: but amid the cheering and yelling, an emotional moment from a mother who just lost her son riley rone in a car accident. riley was a trump campaign volunteer. >> mr. trump said he would give everything he owned if it would bring my riley back. please, please, please vote for mr. donald trump in my son's honor. >> reporter: but after that moment, trump lit into hillary clinton saying decorated veterans who support him blasted her. >> and i refuse to tell you what they said, but it wasn't good, believe me. can you imagine these people taking orders, these great people taking orders from her? >> reporter: and the republican nominee repeating a false claim on the campaign trail based on a bogus fox news story. >> the fbi now has multiple open criminal investigations going on
8:07 am
hillary clinton. lots of bad things are happening. >> reporter: fox news calling the report a mistake. >> that just wasn't inartful, it was a mistake and for that i'm sorry. >> reporter: but trump still pushing the discredited story and also calling up president obama for campaigning with hillary. >> he's like a cheerleader. he's jumping up and down all over the place for hillary. he shouldn't be doing that. he shouldn't be with her. he's got to be working. >> reporter: so trump starts his day here in tampa, florida, then he heads to north carolina, then nevada and he finishes at a late night rally in colorado likely working till midnight. paula. >> a mad dash to the finish for trump. tom, thank you. with just three days to go before voters hit the polls, a former "people" magazine writer is speaking out on camera for the first time since accusing donald trump of sexual assault
8:08 am
with more on what she's saying and why she's coming forward now mary bruce joins us from our d.c. bureau. good morning. >> reporter: paula, good morning. she had stayed quiet while trump denied her story and hit back at her on the campaign trail but natasha stoynoff says she's commenting now because she wants to support other women to share their stories. this morning natasha stoynoff is speaking out on camera for the first time since accusing donald trump of sexual assault. three weeks after her claims were first published by "people," the magazine's former writer sits down with its editor in chief. >> i wanted to show all the women who wrote to me that i could be brave enough to do it because i feel like if i am brave enough to do this here, maybe they will be brave enough too. >> reporter: in her recent letter, stoynoff alleged trump cornered her in 2005 at his mar-a-lago residence in florida while she was there to interview him and his then pregnant wife writing "we walked into that room alone and trump shut the door behind us. i turned around. and within seconds he was pushing me against the wall and forcing his tongue down my throat. trump denies it ever happened and her story has not been
8:09 am
confirmed by abc news. the republican nominee has slammed stoynoff's story and other accusations of alleged misconduct as lies. >> trump has said that he is going to sue all the women who have come forward. does that worry you? >> i look at that as an attempt to silence women. >> reporter: now despite the personal pushback from trump, stoynoff says she has no regrets about taking her story public, that the positive response from women has made it all worth it. dan and paula. >> mary bruce, thank you. okay, for the latest analysis on this wild race, let's bring in two abc news political analysts, matthew dowd and kristen soltis anderson, otherwise known as ksa. that's what we call her behind the scenes here. okay, guys, we're three days out, what's your prediction for how this thing is going to go on tuesday? matt, we'll start with you and then we'll go to kristen. >> if you look at all of the data that's come together, the state polls, the national polls and all of that data, it basically says hillary clinton
8:10 am
is likely to win a victory in close proximity to what obama won in 2012, a three or four-point victory, and our poll has it at four. other polls have it at two, one. it has all sort of come together for a three or four-point victory. >> kristen, you're a professional pollster. what's your prognosis? >> it may be the case hillary clinton winds up with a margin of victory similar to obama but the states she uses to get there may look a little different. right now polling and early vote data in places like ohio that are looking pretty good for donald trump. wouldn't be a surprise to see that state go from democratic to republican territory. on the other hand, early vote data in places like florida and nevada are showing huge increases in hispanic turnout early on. that's likely to benefit hillary clinton and put those states much more likely to be in her camp. so it remains to be seen how hillary clinton will -- which path she'll take, but it is more likely than not that she is going to win this election a few days from now. >> and, kristen,
8:11 am
you just mentioned the hispanic turnout. matt, let's start with you. how big of an influence, how important of a role do you think that minority bloc will be in this election? >> well, if mcfarland wins on election night, she will have won with the most diverse coalition than any president has ever won with when you look at african-american votes, asian votes and latino votes. i think there is a possibility that the story on election night is this huge wave of latino votes. it's funny that the trump campaign has been talking about the secret hidden vote that's going to show up at the polls. right now from looking at the early votes and a lot of the data, the secret hidden vote seems to be a huge latino wave sweeping across the country. >> and, kristen, can we look at the map with you? how unprecedented is it that both new hampshire which is traditionally a blue state i believe has voted blue in five of the last six races and georgia seem to be up for grabs this close to the election? >> exactly. there are a lot of states that because of the demographics of the state are likely to flip columns in the end. so new hampshire, a state where the population is not necessarily as diverse, lots of
8:12 am
those noncollege white voters that donald trump does so well with, that's a state that was potentially off the table that has come back on the table in recent days. on the other hand, north carolina and along with it, georgia, states that have large african-american populations, lots of college educated voters, groups that have tended to break for hillary clinton, so the traditional red/blue divide is starting to cut a little differently because of the new demographic coalitions that these candidates are putting together. >> all right, kristen, otherwise known as ksa. >> or the notorious ksa. >> 72, 73 if you have to count daylight saving time. ? that's right. that's right of the it's like a leap final three days. >> that just means we have to wait one more hour to vote. >> one extra hour. >> thank you for that reminder. matt and kristen, thank you. reminder, you can download the abc news app to get live streaming breaking news reports on the final days from the campaign trail and we'll be here right when the polls close, tuesday night. george stephanopoulos will be anchoring live coverage all through the night with our entire political team starting at 7:00 p.m. eastern time.
8:13 am
dan, you're going to be headlining our digital coverage and you'll have a special report on "nightline" throughout the morning, as well. >> it'll be a long, exciting and historic night and abc news will be with you every step of the way. and speaking of the campaign, there is a major headline involving one of donald trump's most public supporters. the governor of new jersey, chris christie. two of his former aides have been convicted of conspiracy and fraud in the so-called bridgegate scandal. christie has now canceled a planned trip for trump and david wright is on the story from new jersey. hey, david, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, dan, and there is the bridge that gave the scandal its name. it looks beautiful this morning but it was the scene of a traffic jam caused on purpose with serious repercussions even now. governor christie was due to be out on the campaign trail with trump today until those guilty verdicts came back, now we won't see him. this morning the traffic jam that brought the george washington bridge to a standstill continues to haunt the men and women accused of
8:14 am
making it happen. allegedly as payback for a new jersey mayor who refused to endorse new jersey governor chris christie. bridget anne kelly and bill baroni were both top christie aides. >> this is not over. i assure you we're going to have another news conference. >> reporter: both of them convicted friday on all nine counts. >> i am innocent of these charges. >> reporter: christie felt it necessary to reassert his innocence. let me be clear once again, he said in a statement, i had no knowledge prior to or during these lane reassignments and had no role in authorizing them. no believable evidence was presented to contradict that fact. but in the trial witnesses testified he was deeply involved in the traffic jam and the cover-up even as he insisted otherwise. the scandal crippled christie's candidacy for president. it also may have cost him a shot at the vice presidency too. trump reportedly offered him the job but withdrew it out of concern this november trial might end up being a
8:15 am
distraction even though trump has made it clear he likes christie. >> i do have confidence in him and i hope it all works out well for him. >> reporter: christie is now in charge of the transition team if trump should win on tuesday. his aides are going to jail. these convictions carry a maximum sentence of 20 years behind bars but it's likely they'll get a lot less time, paula. >> interesting to see if he'll stay on that transition team. david, thank you. we want to move to that disturbing story out of south carolina. investigators there are digging on the property where a missing woman was found alive chained and caged like an animal, and now they have made yet another grisly discovery fearing they could have a serial killer on their hands, and abc's eva pilgrim has more. >> reporter: this morning, the search for more victims after a grisly find in these south carolina woods, an unidentified body. >> we're not going to be done here until we, like i said earlier, are 100% sure that we don't have any more evidence to go over.
8:16 am
>> reporter: local real estate agent todd kohlhepp appearing in court charged in the kidnapping of kala brown, allegedly held captive for two months before being rescued from a steel shipping container on his property. >> this is super tragic. i mean, this is bad. >> reporter: brown telling police her boyfriend charles carver, who disappeared with her in late august, was killed at the hands of the suspect. >> she witnessed the defendant shoot charles david carver. >> reporter: carver's family sitting in a hearing listening to solicitor barry barnett lay out the details before a judge. the chief prosecutor saying investigators honed in on this rural area after tracing brown's last cell phone pings to a nearby tower and finding social media conversations between brown and kohlhepp. during their search of the property, they heard desperate banging from the container and found brown. >> she was -- had a neck to her chain as well as to her ankle. the cargo was locked several times with several different locks they had to go through to get to her.
8:17 am
>> reporter: kohlhepp has not yet entered a plea or made a comment on this case. but in a statement to abc news his mother had only this to say, i'm so, so sorry. i just can't believe this. kohlhepp does not have an attorney at this time. as for investigators, they will be searching through the weekend. they have a lot of work ahead of them. almost 100 acres to go through. dan and paula. >> eva, just an awful story, eva, thank you for your reporting this morning. >> probably see more today, highway 27 closed for a time. 2 to 3 inches of rain getting into texas.
8:18 am
ahead of that we continue this very, very mild trend across the center part of the country. temperatures above normal for a spectacular saturday. that's what's going on nationally, here's the local forecast. >> reporter: it's going to be spectacular here, as well. george, everyone, i'm meteorologist chris sowers with this accuweather update. the radars are clear and the skies are clear. not a cloud in the sky from start to finish. maybe a few high, thin clouds that were, but not many. 64 degrees. same thing tomorrow. cooler monday 58. warmer for election day, 67. >> thank you, sir. >> yeah. all right. what's cooking in the news department? >> we got a lot of news. good morning, everyone. we're going to begin with a verdict in that libel trial of "rolling stone" magazine.
