Larry Sabato is director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia. By contrast, he found 14 per cent of Clinton statements he studied reached that level, which he said was typical of most politicians. Nearly all said they were still open to persuasion by both candidates.
That’s why many election officials, both Democrat and Republican, have emerged to contest Trump’s allegations. Can we trust them with life-or-death decisions? “Even in such states, to vote 10 or 15 times, one would have to go to 10 or 15 different polling places and provide the names and addresses of people who live in those precincts and had not yet voted”. “I couldn’t imagine a better sign of faith or trust than that”. “You have a fan”, he said. “Because you need to protect yourself, you need to keep steady, but at the same time you don’t want to seem ‘walled off, ‘” she wrote in the post. “He’s just such a wild cannon”, said Barbara Kass, 62, a retired airline employee who is completely undecided.

Asked to describe the Democratic nominee as a member of their family, the most frequent choice was “stepmother” – a loveless relationship.
When Hart asked how the voters would finally make up their minds, he was met with mostly blank looks. “It’s going to have to be the debates”, said Locher. “Tone it down”, said Schneider. The kid gloves treatment she got from the Federal Bureau of Investigation – no recordings, allowing aide and co-conspirator Cheryl Mills in the interview – confirm the impression, created by the intended-to-be-secret meeting of Bill Clinton and Attorney General Loretta Lynch days before, that the fix was in.
What can Clinton do?
