Here's how the FBI Director Comey's speech affected Hillary Clinton in the polls
In the days since FBI Director James Comey called Hillary Clinton's use of a personal email server "extremely careless," the presumptive Democratic nominee's lead on Donald Trump has narrowed. Although the FBI recommended no charges be pressed against her, Clinton barely leads Trump in Iowa, earning 42 percent support to his 39 percent, an NBC/Wall Street Journal/Marist poll found. In Pennsylvania, Clinton has a slightly safer lead of 45 percent to 36 percent, the poll showed.
In Ohio, though, Trump and Clinton are tied at 39 percent; broken down by demographic, Trump wins white voters with 43 percent to Clinton's 33 percent. Black Ohio voters, though? Clinton had 88 percent of their support — and Trump, zilch.
