This is the all-local from 10-10 wins. I'm Susan Richard, and here are today's top local stories. The countdown is on to what would be a nightmare for millions of Long Islanders. We're talking about a Long Island Railroad strike, which could happen at midnight. In and around Penn Station, there are plenty of electronic signs and other announcements alerting commuters to what could be lying ahead. The MTA's lead negotiator, Gary DeLaverson, says Thursday's negotiations were frustrating, but they're going to keep on talking. That deal has to be something that protects taxpayers. It has to be something that protects fair pairs, people who are riding the railroad, and it's got to protect the budget. I caught up with Jose this morning as he was heading back to Babylon. He's already taken a side in all of this. I hope that works get good. the race they need. So you hope the workers get the race? Yeah, because I'm a worker. So an hour and 20 minutes is going to turn into what? Like two hours and a half. Each way. I mean, wow, yeah. Go with the flow. As he goes with the flow, that flow could be quite stressful in a matter of hours. Glenn Shuck, 10-10 wins, 92-3 FM, here at the L.I.D.R. at Penn Station. Your Long Island Railroad ride could be messed up this morning. That's because of yesterday's fire on the tracks in one of the East River tunnels Thursday at Penn Station. This is a tunnel operated by Amtrak. It's undergoing repairs dating back to Hurricane Sandy, the whole thing forcing power to be cut off to half a dozen tracks at Penn. As always, you want to stay with 10-10 winds for traffic and transit on the ones. Imagine you're driving on the LIE, and suddenly your car falls into a sinkhole. That was the scene Thursday. Both tires exploded. The rim pulled back. I don't know if the suspensions are damaged. Jeffrey Jimenez is counting his blessings. His car is not drivable, but he is not hurt after a large sinkhole suddenly appeared. on the Long Island Expressway at exit 49. It looked like it was wet until you got right on it. And my car fell, the front hit the thing. I thank God I didn't get stuck. Another man got his Honda stuck. No one seriously hurt. When that happened to me, I saw him coming behind me. I was trying to wave him off and he just got stuck right in there. Traffic was backed up for miles. Sophia Hall, Tenton wins, a 92-3 FM on Long Island.

In a statement, the DOT said it warned that the lengthy approval process would be an issue. They say the city council needs to reform the law and remove unnecessary hurdles. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says New York State needs to think about redrawing our congressional maps. I think it is tremendously important.

Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was defending comments made after the Supreme Court significantly weakened Section 2 at the Voting Rights Act of 1965. She tells CBS News this would be to level the playing field. If the Republican Party is going to aggressively redraw, we're looking at losing possibly 19 members of the Congressional Black Caucus because of this, frankly, racist redistricting efforts targeted towards disenfranchising black voters across. the country and we have a responsibility to answer to it. It's not clear if New York state lawmakers would be on board.

First of all, make sure you hydrate. You hydrate not just during the race, but before the race. It's so important to get those fluids and electrolytes in your body before you even start to run. Then as you're going through this course, it's really important to listen to how your body is feeling. Well, they're going to have a medical team on hand at the finish line with a special device on loan from Maimonides.
