NEW YORK (WABC) -- Governor Kathy Hochul and Republican challenger Bruce Blakeman campaigned in separate appearances Sunday, offering sharply different visions for New York as voters prepare for early voting and Election Day. Hochul visited Concourse Village in the Bronx, where she highlighted policies including a ban on cell phones in schools and expanded access to community college and child care. The governor said those priorities are rooted in her own experiences. "I knew what it was like to struggle, not having child care. That's why as governor, when I'm focusing on your family as my fight and we're going to have child care for everybody, this was a personal fight because I knew what it was like not to have it," Hochul said. Meanwhile, Blakeman campaigned in Elmont on Long Island alongside Lee Zeldin, whom Hochul narrowly defeated in the 2022 gubernatorial election. Zeldin later became administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency in the Trump administration. While Hochul did not mention Blakeman during her Bronx appearance, supporters said a major challenge for Democrats in the borough is voter turnout. "I'm counting on all of you," Hochul told attendees.

He was transported to an area hospital, where he was pronounced dead Saturday, the agency said. The official cause of death is pending, ICE said. An immigration advocacy group says it spoke with a woman who identified herself as Lopez-Cornejo’s mother. In a video the group posted on Facebook, Maria Cornejo said her son took medication to manage seizures, diabetes and his blood pressure. Maria Cornejo said in the video she last spoke with her son on Friday, and he reported numbness on the right side of his face and his right hand. He was supposed to undergo some additional tests, she said. “I don’t want another mother to go through what I’m going through. What I want is justice,” Maria Cornejo added. "I’ll never get over this pain.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass. — Republican candidate for lieutenant governor Shawn Oliver suspended his campaign after he was arrested Saturday night on an OUI charge following a wild crash in New Bedford. Oliver was running alongside Mike Minogue, who is challenging incumbent Gov. Maura Healey in the Massachusetts gubernatorial race. “After careful reflection, I have made the decision to suspend my campaign for Lieutenant Governor.

HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - Moderate to locally windy trades will blow over the islands for the next several days. Showers will generally be on the light side and focus mainly on windward and mauka areas, but some showers may be pushed leeward by the strong trades through midweek. There’s a First Alert for lighter winds and a possible weak front that could impact our weather starting Thursday into the weekend. The gusty trades may ease up and come from the southeast as a low pressure area drops in from the northwest. If the low moves far enough south, it could push a front through the state Sunday into Monday. Still too early to tell for sure, but we’ll keep you posted. View the latest weather conditions here. In surf, a north-northwest swell and a small overlapping swell from the west-northwest are both on the way down. Surf on south shores will decline below average Monday and remain small through most of the week. Rough surf generated by the trade winds will continue through midweek for east shores, then decline as the trades ease later in the week.
