One week to go: Early votes, racist jokes, and Bob Woodward

45 million people - or 20 percent of the electorate - have already voted. What do the patterns tell us about who might have the advantage?

Later, we speak to Bob Woodward, of The Washington Post and Watergate fame, about Trump and democracy. And we ask whether Madison Square misogyny and minority group racism will put Trump voters off - or turn them on.
