Meanwhile, both sides continued to spar over the recent revelation that FBI investigators are again probing Clinton’s email practices. Since October 29, her lead among ” likely” and “leaning” states shrank from 146 electoral votes to 95.
“I would rather be here talking about almost anything else”, Clinton said Tuesday during a rally in Florida where she leveled a series of attacks on Trump’s character and preparedness for the White House. On Thursday, the day before Comey’s announcement, Clinton led Trump by 43 percent to 37 percent. “Nice and easy.'” Trump can’t win the election without carrying Florida, underscoring how narrow his path to the White House is.

As controversy surrounds the Clinton campaign, the Democrat has watched her lead in the polls dwindle.
Comey reignited a political firestorm when he alerted select members of Congress on Friday that FBI officials had detected a batch of emails pertinent to the case during an “unrelated” investigation.
Er … yes … but … the entire point of Comey’s letter is to let Congress know that after all those investigations and those conclusions, they discovered additional information that may end up being relevant.
