The Marin Report is a fast-paced, insightful look at the day's top news from renowned reporter Carol Marin. Watch it each weekday at noon.

Here are today's stories we're following:

• Voting is under way in two high profile elections -- the 2nd Congressional District and Cicero town president. Turnout could be 20 percent or below, making predictions problematic.

• How safe do you feel on the CTA? A Sun-Times analysis shows even with high-resolution security cameras in place, crime at CTA rail stations is up by 21%.

• We're watching the weather. Robust is the word for this evening's commute, with varying amounts of rain and snow.

• And finally flamboyant former Chicago Bull Dennis Rodman arrives in North Korea today to conduct a basketball camp. In a country where gray seems to be the national color---well, we'll just leave it at that.
