WASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the 2016 presidential campaign (all times EDT):
9 a.m.
Donald Trump has taken to Twitter on Saturday morning to go after Hillary Clinton and the media, and to claim again that the presidential race is looking like — in his words — "a rigged election."
That's an unprecedented assertion in a country with a history of peaceful democratic transition.
Trump is denying stories in which some women have accused him of sexual misconduct.
He says the allegations are "100 percent fabricated and made-up charges" and are being pushed by the Clinton campaign and the media. Trump says they "may poison the minds of the American Voter" and he claims: "FIX!"
Trump tweets that such "false and unsubstantiated charges, and outright lies" are being pushed before the Nov. 8 election in order to put Clinton in the White House.
