US election: Tight race in final countdown to Iowa caucuses
- 8 years ago
In the run-up to Monday’s Iowa caucuses, White House hopeful Hillary Clinton has a lead of just three percentage points according to an influential last-minute poll.
The Des Moines Register/Bloomberg Politics Iowa poll released on Saturday indicated a tight Democratic and Republican race.
Democrat Clinton was only just ahead of self-declared socialist Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, at 45 percent to 42 percent.
But the row over the former Secretary of State’s use of an unsecured home server for e-mails, some of which the State Department deems too ‘top secret’ to disclose, just won’t go away.
Clinton continues to defend herself against claims that she made highly sensitive government secrets vulnerable to attackers.
“I don’t know which ones they have plucked out to fail to disclose and we have called for all of them to be released. This doesn’t change anything about the fundamental facts. I never sent or received any e-mail marked classified. I take classified information
