No. 1 – Recount chaos continues across Florida

Officials in Broward say they will start their process today, but not finish until Wednesday. Workers have been working since early this morning separating nearly 700,000 ballots so they can run through machines.

As of this morning, nearly 190,000 mail-in ballots have still not been separated. Despite this, officials say they will meet Thursday’s deadline - at which point officials will then determine if a manual recount is necessary.

No. 2 – Death toll rises in fires burning across California

The couple hired private firefighters to battle the flames threatening their home in the Hidden Hills community. It sits at the end of a cul-de-sac and borders a field, meaning if it went up in flames, it would have led to a domino effect in the whole neighborhood.

No. 3 – GQ cover with Serena Williams causing controversy over punctuation

Serena's not the first fierce female to grace the cover - Jennifer Aniston did it a few years back – but the cover has "woman" in quotes, which has sent twitter into a frenzy.
