In an interview on CNN’s “State of the Union”, Kellyanne Conway says that Comey could be accused of interfering in the election if he didn’t disclose that Clinton-related emails were under FBI investigation for the second time in a year. “But that’s great”, Trump said Sunday, appearing to hint at the possibility of voter fraud in Colorado, a rare prospect Trump has continued to hammer on the stump.
The GOP nominee spent the weekend campaigning in Colorado, and rather than focusing on those who have yet to cast their ballots, he tried to convince his supporters that their mail-in ballots will not be counted. However, recent polls show that the race in the battleground state is tight between Trump and his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton.
Protestors carried signs that said, “Love trumps hate”, and shouted phrases such as “dump Trump” and “nasty women get stuff done”. “Hillary has nobody to blame but herself for her mounting legal troubles”.
Colorado’s elections are mostly run at the county level, where elected clerks are a mix of Democrats and Republicans.
Colorado’s secretary of state, a Republican, rebuffed Trump’s claims two weeks ago.
His running mate, Indiana Gov. Mike Pence, stumped in Colorado earlier this week before returning for a series of rallies up and down the East Coast, focusing primarily in North Carolina and Florida. Trump urged the media to pan out across the crowd, targeting the media as the enemy for not showing the full breadth of his audience, and bringing on all kinds of verbal onslaughts on the media contained in a pen ― as he often does.
The Blade also quoted Chris Barron, “a gay conservative activist and founder of LGBT for Trump”, who called him “the most pro-LGBT Pres candidate ever nominated by either party”. “Republicans are trying to make a lot of noise with it because they are in kind of a desperate place”.
Ten days before the election, Trump was making a strong push for rally attendees to either vote in person or to mail in their ballots.
Donald Trump spoke about the Clinton campaign platform, the military, the border and other issues at a rally at the University of Northern Colorado on Sunday. She told Iowa Public Radio that she voted for Trump the first time but was afraid her vote would be switched to a vote for Clinton. “I don’t know what the big moving trends are maybe at the national level, what that really means, but I do think people are really questioning the viability of somebody like Donald Trump and don’t understand how he ended up at the top of the ticket”. He doesn’t trust that people’s ballots are being counted.
