I got very different results when I did the short and long versions of the questionnaire, and a surprisingly large change when I then weighted my responses. The score for Clinton didn't change much - she came last in each case with 33-36%, but a towering score for Trump in the first instance (93%!!!) was transformed in the last case into a narrow lead for Johnson (68%) over Trump (63%).

It's odd to think that it's taken Hillary Clinton's candidacy for the Presidency to unite the KGB and CIA in the common endeavour of trying to stop her.

I expect he did have election timing concerns. My guess is that they found something big in the emails that can't be revealed yet because the investigation is still ongoing and everything has to be checked but which he doesn't want to be accused of covering up when it is revealed. Yes, but you're a paranoid loon. In the real world, the FBI have only just got a warrant to actually look at the emails. He does not and cannot have any idea of the contents.

These are Weiner's e-mails, which may or may not have any connection at all to Clinton.

Imagine how embarassed I am to have got 31% Jill Stein Why so surprised? She's a pro-Putin conspiracy loon. Quite a lot of crossover with UKIP surely.

If they were Weiner's e-mails they wouldn't have needed a warrant to search them. Weiner, sensibly in the extremely dire position he's in, being very co-operative and has already given full permission for all his e-mails to be searched. A warrant isn't needed if the owner has given permission. They're Huma's e-mails. Clearly they're connected to Clinton. They wouldn't have known to ask for a warrant to search those separately if they didn't already know what they were. To find out what they were they would have had to start looking at them. This is presumably why Huma didn't hand over the laptop to have e-mails be deleted and 'bleached' before handing it on to the FBI. She knew her husband had also used that laptop and that handing it over would mean letting people find all his smut. So she didn't mention to the FBI (or Hillary) that this laptop existed. Like I said, this announcement has absolutely nothing to do with Clinton's private server. Unless, of course, it turns out that some of these emails were specifically discussing her decision to use it (which seems incredibly unlikely).

It is sad to see Nate Silver reduced to a dismal click bait whore.

I don't disagree with that assessment of him in recent months, but what is actually wrong about the specific claims he makes there?
