Pollster Predicts Landslide for Clinton
Emerson College Polling is predicting Hillary Clinton will win the presidential race with 323 Electoral College votes, and Donald Trump will lose with just 215. 270 are needed to win.
The polling firm has a slight Republican lean according to rankings by Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight, and is rated a "B."
Emerson predicts Clinton will win the key battleground states of Florida, North Carolina, Nevada, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Colorado, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, and Virginia.
FiveThirtyEight is less bullish, predicting Clinton has about a 2:1 chance to win the White House, with about 297 Electoral College votes to Trump's about 241.

WikiLeaks: Sheikh Agreed to Pay Bill $2 Million Per Trip to Ethiopia??
According to a briefing memo contained in an email chain released by WikiLeaks, Sheikh Mohammed Hussein Al-Amoudi of Midroc had pledged to donate $20 million over 10 years to the Clinton Health Access Initiative. But an economic downturn caused the sheikh to delay payments. The health program did not receive payments in 2010 or 2011.
In an email released by WikiLeaks Monday, Clinton Health Access Initiative CEO Ira Magaziner suggested in November 2011 that Clinton call the sheikh.
“CHAI would like to request that President Clinton call Sheikh Mohammed to thank him for offering his plane to the conference in Ethiopia and expressing regrets that President Clinton’s schedule does not permit him to attend the conference,” he wrote.
WikiLeaks released more of the email chain on Tuesday. Amitabh Desai, director of foreign policy at the foundation, expressed reservations — unless the sheikh had caught up with his financial commitment.
“Unless Sheikh Mo has sent us a $6 million check, this sounds crazy to do,” he responded.

But Bruce Lindsey, chairman of the Clinton Foundation's board of directors, argued in favor of the plan.
"I think they are hopeful if we do this it will help us get the $6 million," he wrote. "I think he [Clinton] should call."
The sheikh was born in Ethiopia to an Ethiopian mother and Saudi father. He later moved to Saudi Arabia and made a fortune in construction and real estate before buying oil refineries in Sweden and Morocco. He approached the Clinton Foundation in 2006 and proposed donating $2 million to the health program for every year that Clinton visited Ethiopia. The final agreement the parties struck mentioned a payment schedule but did not tie the money to Clinton's visits to the African country.
In 2008, the sheikh donated rooms at a Sheraton hotel in Ethiopia and meals for Clinton and a large party for four days — two days longer than originally planned because of aircraft problems.
According to Clinton Foundation documents, the sheikh contributed $5 million to $10 million, though it is unclear how much of that came after the email exchange.
The memo laid out strategies for getting the sheikh to cough up the money he owed and detailed discussions with George Salem, the sheikh's Washington-based lawyer, and Irvin Hicks, a former U.S. ambassador to Ethiopia and one of the sheikh's representatives in Washington.
Alfred Olango’s Family Plans To Sue El Cajon
Attorney Brian Dunn says he will file a claim against the city on Thursday on behalf Alfred Olango's widow, Taina Rozier, and Olango's two daughters, who are ages 16 and 12. The claim seeks damages for Olango's death and calls for additional training to help officers deal with the mentally ill, Dunn told the Associated Press
A police officer opened fire on Olango within a minute of arriving on the scene the afternoon of Sept. 27. Olango's sister had described her brother as mentally unbalanced in multiple 911 calls.
Video released by police days after the shooting shows the officer approached the 38-year-old man with his gun drawn, as Olango paced in a strip mall parking lot. Olango can be seen pulling something out of his pocket and taking a "shooting stance" — wrapping his hands around a cylinder and aiming it at the officer, who then fires his gun. A second officer fired his Taser simultaneously. The object in Olango's hands turned out to be a 4-inch electronic cigarette device called a vape pen, authorities said.
The El Cajon Police Department, like many police departments, has specially trained officers to help defuse the sometimes-volatile calls that involve people in the throes of mental illness. But El Cajon officials said none were available to go to the call.
Attorney Daniel Gilleon filed a separate claim Oct. 20 against the city of El Cajon on behalf of Olango's sister, Lucy Olango. She said police were negligent in handling her brother, who was experiencing a mental breakdown because of the death of a close friend. The lawsuit also names Officer Richard Gonsalves as a defendant, saying he used deadly force too quickly and without warning.
Another attorney, Rodney Diggs, said he plans to also file a federal claim on behalf of Olango's father, Richard Olango Abuka, for his son's death.
The department's use of force policy, obtained by KPBS in a public records request, says "deadly force is authorized when it appears reasonably necessary to defend himself/herself or others from the immediate threat of death or serious bodily injury; to prevent a crime in which human life is in serious jeopardy as a result of the suspect's actions; to apprehend a fleeing felon for a crime involving serious bodily injury or the use of deadly force where there is substantial risk that the person whose arrest is sought will cause death or serious bodily injury to others if apprehension is delayed."
It goes on to say, "Deadly force shall only be exercised when all reasonable alternatives have been exhausted or appear impracticable."
In 2015, District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis ruled the deadly police shooting of Fridoon Rawshan Nehad, who had a history of mental illness and was twirling a pen before being shot by a San Diego police officer, was reasonable and justified.
El Cajon city officials declined to comment for this story.
