Stopping short of a complete ban on flavored e-cigarettes, the Food and Drug Administration proposed a range of new rules to help limit the exposure of e-cigs to young people. The FDA will allow stores to still sell the products, but they must be in closed off areas inaccessible to minors. They also proposed banning menthol in cigarettes and flavored cigars. Bob Herman, healthcare reporter for Axios, joins us for details on the FDA’s plans. Next, the Florida recount is under way but is not without its problems and lawsuits. A manual hand recount has been order in the Senate race between Bill Nelson and Rick Scott where about 12,600 votes separate them. Other voters get more time to resolve issues with their signatures and get their ballots counted. Matt Dixon, Florida Bureau Chief for Politico, joins us for more on the midterm elections that never end. Finally, an update on the California wildfires. Containment has increased but so has the death toll and many are still missing. But as firefighters continue to bravely get things under control, we find out that authorities in the town of Paradise only issued limited evacuation alerts leaving many at the mercy of the fast moving fire. My producer Miranda joins me for that and also what is next, tracking down the cause of the fire.
