Clinton, Trump set for last debate as ugly race nears finish

All the while, Clinton has increased her lead over Trump in most polls, including in key swing states.

An average of recent national polls shows Clinton with about 46 percent support to 39 percent for Trump and 6.4 percent for Liberatarian candidate Gary Johnson.

Among women, the contest isn't even close as the Democratic nominee has a 17-point advantage - no surprise there.

He even said he believes it so deeply that he will escort Mr. Trump to the Capitol for his swearing-in as president if the Republican receives more electoral votes on Election Day.

Trump has produced no evidence of voter fraud or other claims he has made, like alleging that Hillary Clinton was on drugs during their last presidential debate.

For her part, Clinton steps up as a flood of hacked emails provides an unprecedented real-time look into the machinations of a presidential campaign - hers.

The former secretary of state is now ahead by seven points over Trump, according to the RealClearPolitics polling average.

In Illinois, where Democrat Hillary Clinton has a double-digit lead in most polls, a Democrat has won during the past six presidential elections. Trump, because he doesn't like losing, will presumably be pleased if people think his candidacy was a ruse in order to take on Rupert Murdoch and Fox News.

More than 4 million people are about to cast their ballots in Washington state and some of them are anxious.

Campaign officials said she has also invited three Nevadans from immigrant families, including prominent Las Vegas DREAMer Astrid Silva.

The Fox News survey of 912 likely voters was conducted between October 15 and October 17 and has a margin of error of 3 percentage points.

Donald Trump greet's supporters at a Colorado rally. Trump has responded with a scattershot series of criticisms about "Clinton corruption", but he has yet to hone a disciplined line of attack.

The immigration issue will be controversial for both candidates, as Clinton may have to explain how she expects the American worker to be fine with losing a job to a foreign worker on American soil but willing to punish American companies who go overseas who replace American jobs with foreign workers on foreign soil.

One other Republican stronghold may be in play on Election Day: Arizona.

And while the polls suggest Clinton's got this one in the bag, many are sceptical of the polls accuracy.

"Quite frankly as a mom I just couldn't let it go".

Tom Cole, who is supporting Donald Trump for president, said Tuesday he doesn't agree with the Republican nominee that the election is "rigged". With the slow drip of emails from Clinton's campaign staffer continuing through Wikileaks and Trump's difficulty in staying on message and avoiding scandals, anything can happen in the last weeks of the campaign.
