There are 26 days to go until election day and the news shows no sign of letting up. Here's our latest daily election dig, including Donald Trump's many accusers,
The latest
Donald Trump was assailed by multiple accusations of groping from women who have come forward to US media. One woman told the New York Times that Trump groped her on a flight two decades ago, while another who was a receptionist in Trump Tower said he kissed her on the lips back in 2005. The Palm Beach Post also reported on a woman who says Trump grabbed her bottom at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida back in 2003 - while he was standing next to his then-fiancee Melania Knauss. Trump angrily denied the allegations and his campaign released a letter it sent to the NYT saying the newspaper was providing a platform to "anyone wishing to smear Mr Trump's name and reputation".
"Going to war" was how sources in the Trump campaign described the mood in Trump Tower to a Washington Post reporter. For now, however, it seems Trump is in retreat after several sources told NBC Newsthat his campaign was pulling out of Virginia. The latest polling averages on Real Clear Politics have Clinton up by 7.5 percentage points in Virginia.
But it's not all good news for Clinton. WikiLeaks released another batch of emails on Wednesday detailing conversations between her campaign staff and one in particular has caught the attention of Trump and his supporters - an alleged exchange between communications director Jennifer Palmieri and a think tank fellow, in which Palmieri makes disparaging comments about conservative Catholics.
