Donald Trump Challenges Russia to Find Hillary Clintons Missing Emails
DORAL, Fla. Donald J. Trump said Wednesday that he hoped Russia had hacked Hillary Clintons email, essentially sanctioning a foreign powers cyberspying of a secretary of states correspondence.
Russia, if youre listening, I hope youre able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing, Mr. Trump said, staring directly into the cameras. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press.

90% of Sanders Supporters Back Clinton: Pew Research
90% of Sanders Supporters Back Clinton: Pew Research?1469483200
Pew Research Center published some interesting polling results today to coincide with the Democratic National Convention illustrating Clintons March to Nomination. Their take away is 90 percent of consistent supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders now favor Sec. Hillary Clinton over her Republican rival.
But, through their random-digit-dial surveys conducted in English and Spanish, Pew found that 44 percent of Democrats changed their nominee preference during the course of the primaries.
Sanders supporters were almost as fickle in their support of the senator from Vermont. He did slightly better with loyalty from his supporters, but still just twenty percent of primary voters consistently named him as their first choice.
Pew also found the Democratic primary race support for the candidates divided along demographic lines including race, gender, education, and age. The only surprise to those following the news during the primaries is, I think, how evenly split support was in some of the demographic categories.
