A Queens man is being accused of casting absentee ballots that belonged to other voters. WNYC's Charles Lane reports. Also, New York nursing homes are pleading with state lawmakers to give them more flexibility when it comes to staffing. And in Little Falls, New Jersey officials are encouraging people living near the Passaic River to evacuate as waters continue to rise and flood streets. Back in New York City, education officials say school safety is a priority after three separate stabbings this month, but data on these incidents are hard to come by. Education reporter Jessica Gould reports. Lastly, the federal government is giving New York City a 30 million grant to improve the safety of Queens Boulevard, that has been known as the "Boulevard of Death" due to pedestrian and cyclist injuries and fatalities.
