A new poll shows President Biden and former President Trump currently in a dead heat in the upcoming presidential race. Quinnipiac University's latest national poll found registered voters evenly split in their choice for president in 2024, with 46 percent supporting President Biden and 46 percent supporting former President Trump. In a five-way matchup including independent and Green Party candidates, Biden and Trump are still tied with 37 percent support apiece, while independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. drew 16 percent support.        More pro-Palestinian protests are breaking out on U.S. campuses. Texas state troopers on horseback are at the University of Texas at Austin campus today as the "Palestine Solidarity Committee" says it wants to establish a foot hole at the UT Austin campus. The school says the protesters will not be allowed to set up any camps.        Donald Trump's criminal hush money trial resumes Thursday. Former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker is expected to continue testifying for a third day, after explaining to the court how he paid people for the rights to negative stories about Trump only to never publish them in order to protect the presidential candidate. He's also expected to be questioned about Stormy Daniels, the adult film star whose alleged affair with Trump is at the heart of the criminal case.       Millions of salaried workers in the U.S. will soon qualify for overtime pay thanks to a new rule from the Biden administration. The rule announced Tuesday by the Department of Labor changes the threshold under which salaried employees become eligible for overtime. The department estimates that an extra four-million workers will qualify for overtime once the rule is implemented in January.        Ohio is allowing breastfeeding mothers to be excused from jury duty. The law says that if a prospective juror can provide documentation to the judge that they're currently breastfeeding their one-year-old or younger child, they can be excused. The State Senate passed it unanimously in September and Governor Mike DeWine signed the bill into law Tuesday.       The NHL's Stanley Cup Playoffs features three games tonight. In the East, the Boston Bruins will head to Toronto to take on the Maple Leafs for game three. In the Western Conference, the Vegas Golden Knights will face off against the Stars in Dallas for game two of their series, and the Los Angeles Kings will play the Oilers in Edmonton in game two.
