Trump, Clinton focus on crucial states

Mr Comey’s letter to Congress, informing it of the newly discovered emails, had thrown Mrs Clinton’s presidential race against Republican Donald Trump into turmoil.

Some of the African Trump supporters like Malik have also voiced their concerns about the moral relativism that has pervaded U.S. politics, from abortion rights to marriage equality, to the current debate on transgender bathroom use.

According to a RealClearPolitics average, Clinton is up about 1.8 points over Trump nationally, with Clinton garnering 46.6 percent of the vote to Trump’s 44.8 percent. He will also make campaign stops in Iowa, Minnesota and Pennsylvania on Sunday.

But he also delivered blistering criticism of Clinton, calling her and her team “extremely careless” with her handling of national secrets.

Obama was campaigning hard for his preferred successor in Kissimmee, Florida on Sunday, declaring: “If we win Florida, it’s a wrap”. Her husband, former President Bill Clinton, campaigned in Lansing Sunday.

“Every hour and every minute counts”, Clinton told congregants at the Mount Airy Church of God in Christ. President Barack Obama, who won MI twice, will campaign in Ann Arbor on Monday. Recent polls have Clinton with a slim lead. Establishment party leaders she said, are oblivious to the populism born out of frustration, which is why she would vote for a candidate like Donald Trump or Bernie Sanders, instead of Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush. It has a plus or minus 3.5 percentage point margin of error.

Clinton had an advantage in affirmative support, the poll said, with 55 per cent of backers saying they are mainly supporting her, compared with 43 per cent of Trump voters. Clinton, ahead in MI throughout the campaign, is making her first stop in the state Monday, while her husband, former President Bill Clinton, visited Sunday and Obama on Monday. Although Donald Trump also likely has a few isolated reasons to celebrate. David Rothschild’s model suggests that Hillary Clinton has a 73 percent chance of winning the state on Election Day.

Campaign manager Robby Mook dismissed suggestions that Clinton is trying to shore up her crumbling northern firewall.

Trump, an unapologetic populist, has vowed to tear up the reform along with America’s free trade agreements, to “rebuild” what he says is a depleted USA military and review its alliances.

The contrast between the candidates’ results on personal characteristics helps explain Trump’s historically weak standing among white women with college degrees.

As national polls have tightened, Trump has closed the gap in several key states, including Florida and Ohio.

In Nevada, local media reported long queues in Hispanic neighborhoods of Las Vegas, and Mook described early voting numbers in the state as “off the charts”.

Clinton was en route to Cleveland on Sunday when Comey issued his letter.

Trump will campaign in Sterling Heights, Michigan, on Sunday evening. He made no direct mention of the FBI decision and continued to insist -without evidence – that Clinton would be under investigation during her potential presidency.

Trump has blended those mischaracterizations with his charges that there is a “rigged system” at work, stating his theories that the Justice Department is “protecting” Clinton as though they were fact – theories that took on added meaning as reports surfaced in the last week of disagreements between the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Justice Department over whether to publicly announce the review of new emails.

“The establishment has trillions of dollars at stake in this election”, Trump says in his new, two-minute spot.
