Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani is one of Donald Trump’s staunchest public supporters. His daughter, who supported President Obama, will be voting for Hillary Clinton on November 8. Caroline Giuliani told Politico: "I love Hillary, I think she's by far the most qualified candidate that we've had in a long while.”

A banner depicting Russian President Vladimir Putin was draped off the Manhattan Bridge on Thursday afternoon. The banner had “Peacemaker” written on it. Eyewitnesses said that at least two people were involved in putting up the banner. With Russia playing a larger role in the presidential election than might have been expected, the banner seems politically motivated.

In what might be among the worst possible insults for a Republican, Fox News pundit Sean Hannity tweeted at Megyn Kelly: “Clearly you support [Hillary Clinton].” The heated exchange came after Kelly said of the presidential candidates that: “They’re both in their own version of a presidential protection program,” referring to their lack of transparency and limited number of interviews.

A timely donation to Pam Bondi in Florida raised questions about Trump donating to Attorneys General investigating his business practices. It appears he has done such practices before. Records show that Trump and his family have donated often to Attorneys General in New York, starting with Robert Abrams in the 1980s, right through incumbent Eric Schneiderman, who recently forced the Trump Foundation to stop soliciting donations in the state.

The National Education Association, which has endorsed Hillary Clinton for president, has said that Trump’s rhetoric is rubbing off on young children in dangerous ways. The president of the union explained: “There is bullying going on, and [there are] children who feel that they are given permission to repeat some of the things they’re hearing out of Donald Trump’s mouth.”

It what appeared to be a technical glitch yesterday evening, the GOP Web site published a piece declaring Indiana Gov. Mike Pence the winner of the VP debate even before the candidates took the stage. The piece was quickly removed, but only after a number of people had already taken screen shots.

The 2016 presidential election has been wild fodder for comedians and talk-show hosts. "Saturday Night Live" has cast a caricatured but incredibly accurate group of impersonators to play the major players in election 2016, including Trump and Clinton. “These candidates both have their flaws, and they’re about to have those reinforced in the minds of voters every Saturday night until Election Day,” said Ted Johnson in Variety.

Citing security concerns at the Ecuadorian embassy in London, it was announced that Julian Assange’s planned press conference from the embassy’s balcony was to be changed. Instead, he spoke via live stream, and released nothing of much interest to the election. Trump surrogates were saying that the release would include damning documents for Hillary Clinton. Assage is apparently still hoping to reveal those “damning” documents before November 8.

New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman has told the Trump Foundation to “immediately cease soliciting contributions or engaging in any other fundraising activity in New York.” According to the letter from the AG’s office, the foundation was not registered correctly to raise more than $25,000 in New York State.

The Clinton campaign announced that together with the Democratic Party, the campaign enters the final stretch of electoral season with a combined $150 million in the bank. The Clinton campaign alone raised $84 million in September, the highest for the campaign yet this cycle. Together with joint fundraising vehicles, the total raised for the month was $154 million.
