Aliyekuwa mgombea wa kiti cha urais wa Marekani kwa tikiti ya Chama cha Democratic Hillary Clinton, amesema kwamba kushindwa kwake ghafla katika uchaguzi uliyopita, kulichangiwa pakubwa na hatua ya mkurugenzi wa shirika la kijesusi la Marekani FBI, James Comey kutangaza uchunguzi mpya wa sakata ya barua pepe dhidi yake muda mfupi kabla ya uchaguzi. Bi Clinton amewaambia wafadhili wa chama chake kwamba hatua ya Comey ilisambaratisha kampeini yake, licha ya uchunguzi huo kutompata na hatia. Mwandishi wa BBC nchini Marekani hata hivyo amesema wengi wanahisi kuna msururu wa sababu zilizomfanya Donald Trump kumshinda katika uchaguzi huo. Maelfu ya waandamanaji walifanya maandamano kwa siku nne mfululizo dhidi ya rais mteule Donald Trump. ========= Hillary Clinton has blamed the FBI's decision to revive an investigation into her email accounts for her devastating defeat in the US presidential election. In a call on Saturday with top campaign donors, Clinton said her campaign was in the lead until FBI director James Comey sent a letter to Congress on October 28 announcing that the FBI had uncovered emails possibly related to its earlier probe into her use of a private server as secretary of state. The new examination was sparked by an unrelated investigation into former New York Representative Anthony Weiner, the estranged husband of one of her top aides. The surprise announcement by the FBI came after three debates in which president-elect Donald Trump, a Republican, was widely panned for his performance. Clinton told the donors that her campaign was leading by large margins in nearly every battleground state and was tied in Arizona, a traditionally Republican stronghold, until Comey released his letter. Trump's campaign and Republican supporters seized on the news, even though it was unclear whether Clinton's correspondence was tied up in the probe. Comey told lawmakers the Sunday before the election that the bureau had found no evidence to warrant criminal charges. His "all clear" message only served to further motivate Trump supporters, Clinton told donors on the call. In the nine days between Comey's initial statement and his "all clear" announcement, nearly 24 million people cast early ballots. That was roughly 18 percent of the expected total votes for president. While Clinton accepted some blame of her loss, said donors who listened to her call, she made little mention of the many other factors political analysts saw as driving Trump's victory.
