Good morning. It's Monday, November 7. Janet Reno, the first woman to serve as U.S. attorney general and the epicenter of several political storms during the Clinton administration, including the seizure of Elian Gonzalez, died early today. She was 78.

Central Floridians steadily streamed to the polls Sunday, the final day of early voting, as President Obama returned to the crucial I-4 corridor to urge Democrats to back Hillary Clinton on Election Day.

See a video about the annual Souls to the Polls event, which lets voters cast their ballots by providing free transportation to voting centers.
