As President Barack Obama and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney faced off one last time in Monday night's debate, News10NBC wanted to know what local voters were thinking.

Most people said they know who they're voting for, and that they weren't watching the debate for answers. But there are still some on the fence with two weeks to go until the election.

Diane Armesto of Rochester said "You just don't know who to trust, who to believe in. I just hope that people understand that no matter who wins, we really need to come together."

Bill Winch of Rochester said "I really think we need a whole new look in the White House. I think it's been overused... too much money spent. Michelle's spending money like it's going out of style." Irondequoit resident Greg Kausch agrees. "I am not happy with the current administration, to see where it has taken us as a country, economically and with respect to our position with the rest of the world," he said.

And others like Jane Barone say President Obama needs more time. "I think he needs another four years. He did what he could in four years. He cleaned up Bush's mess, but I think he's going to need another few years."
