Hillary Clinton ‘doing great’ as she returns to campaign trail after pneumonia
Hillary Clinton will hit the road Thursday for an afternoon campaign event in Greensboro, North Carolina, her first time on the trail since she took time off to rest and recover from a bout of pneumonia.
A Quinnipiac University poll out a day earlier, on Wednesday, found that results were too close to call when third party candidates were included, with Clinton at 41 percent and Trump at 39 percent.
Clinton will spend Thursday campaigning in Greensboro, North Carolina, and speaking to a Hispanic group in Washington.
The letter released on Wednesday by her campaign staff stated that Clinton underwent a chest scan that revealed she had “mild, non-contagious bacterial pneumonia”, according to her physician, Dr. Lisa Bardack, chair of internal medicine at CareMount Medical in Mount Kisco, New York.
Clinton traveled to North Carolina on Thursday for her first campaign event after she almost collapsed at the memorial service on Sunday. He leads Hillary Clinton by 7 points, as she comes in at 32 percent.
The incident prompted fresh questions about both candidates’ openness regarding their health. And Trump, at 70, will be the oldest. Her letter made no mention of her weight, a key part of a medical exam; nor did a similar letter released a year ago.
Trump said on the show that standing at a podium delivering speeches at campaign rallies is one of the ways he stays healthy on the campaign trail.
“We need to make health records part of the standard”.
On Thursday Donald Trump released a letter from his doctor which said he is in “excellent physical health”. Trump, on the other hand, provided a summary from a recent physical to Dr. Mehmet Oz while taping an episode of Oz’s show.
And a gender gap is still apparent between the two candidates, with Trump securing a double-digit lead ahead of Clinton among men, while she has a similar margin over him among women.
With two months until Election Day, the race between Clinton and Trump is far tighter than many in both parties expected. Clinton’s stop in North Carolina is her fifth since she clinched the nomination on June.
White voters seem to be giving Mr Trump the edge in both states, while Mrs Clinton still has overwhelming support from non-white voters. Pat McCrory for signing a law to prevent transgender people from using restrooms in schools and state government buildings that do not correspond to the gender on their birth certificates. “I’m very proud of the campaign that we have put together”. The Republican said his plans would raise the nation’s economic growth rate to at least 3.5 percent, well above its current rate of about 2 percent, and create 25 million new jobs over the next 10 years. Few businesses now pay the full 35 percent rate, taking advantage instead of many deductions in the existing tax code.
