The presidential candidates will spar for a second time tonight, but this time in a town-hall setting, taking questions from voters. NPR's Ron Elving says each man is looking to make big gains at New York's Hofstra University.
今晚，总统候选人将在市政厅进行第二轮的辩论，并回答选民的提问。NPR的罗恩·埃尔文说每个人都想在纽约霍夫斯特拉大学的活动中获益。
This represents the best opportunity. President Obama is going to have to make up for or bounds back from his performance in the first debate on October 3rd which cost him the momentum. Mitt Romney's challenge in this debate is different from the first debate. It is not an election about being seen on the same stage with the incumbent president, the commander in chief. It's more about the relationship he has with these questioners. And he is going to have to speak to them directly and he is going to have to the kind of empathy and human warmth that people look for in a president. NPR's Ron Elving.
这证明了此次是良机。奥巴马总统将不得不弥补他在10月3日第一次辩论中的失利。米特·罗姆尼在这场辩论的挑战不同于第一场辩论。它不像选举现任总统，总司令那样，更多在于他与这些提问者的关系。他是要直接和他们说话，他不得不具备人们期盼总统会有的同情心和对人的关怀。NPR的罗恩·埃尔文。
The U.S. Supreme Court is allowing all Ohio voters to cast ballots in the final weekend before election day, handing State Democrats a big victory. More from NPR's Pam Fessler.

Ohio officials want to restrict early in-person voting in the final weekend of the campaign to military voters, arguing that local officials were too busy preparing for election day to handle a big turnout. The Obama re-election campaign and State Democrats said that was unfair to other voters and a federal appeals court agreed. The U.S. Supreme Court's decision not to block the lower court's ruling opened the way for all state voters to cast ballots on the Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, before election day. Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted has now directed every county in the key battleground state to offer 16 hours of additional early voting at weekend. Pam Fessler, NPR News.

The Cuban government says restrictions on travel will remain in place for doctors and scientists to prevent a brain drain. Other Cubans who can't afford it, would be allowed to travel out of the country without government permission. Jaime Suchlicki, Director of University of Miami's Institute for Cuban and Cuban American Studies, says the Communist government is taking the step to reduce economic pressures on the island. He expects many Cubans to jump at the chance to leave the country.
