CLINTON think of the big race

-

becoming unbearable. Many people don’t want to express an opinion.

“Over the last six months people openly expressed their beliefs but now people are worried about saying what’s on their mind. Either they’re ashamed or scared of other people’s reactions.”

Alex had worked in the US for 25 years before moving there permanentl­y. He plans to vote for Clinton, despite not liking either candidate. “Somebody said that now either tied or leading.

“Then we’re going to Minnesota, which traditiona­lly has not been Republican at all.”

Public polls from earlier this autumn found a comfortabl­e lead for Clinton in Minnesota.

Trump kicked off a marathon day in Florida, a state he essentiall­y has it’s similar to being offered a choice between being shot or being poisoned,” he said.

“I generally go along with that. At least it’s possible to recover from poison.” Oluf Marshall, 23, moved from East Lothian to New York in September this year.

The former UKIP Westminste­r candidate condemned the actions of some to win to take the White House.

Polls suggest a Florida nail-biter. Democrats say Hispanic voters are showing up in droves to vote early while Republican­s point to signs that reliably Democratic African-American voters are not coming out in the numbers that helped to deliver the state to President Barack Obama.

Mrs Clinton also started her day in Florida with a rally near Fort Lauderdale.

“I wouldn’t vote for either of these two candidates.”

East Lothian- born Oluf stood in last year’s UK election but subsequent­ly left the party. He decided to move to the US to study screenwrit­ing at the New York Film Academy.

He said: “People are scared of Trump because he’s coming out with insanely radical ideas, whereas Clinton has got a lot of baggage. “Trump’s language is typical of American

college frat boys.”
