Months after praising Comey for his agency’s decision to not recommend charges against Clinton, Democrats took issue with Comey’s October announcement of a new investigation into her email servers.
And Sen. Al Franken (D-Minn.) is no exception.
During a Friday appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Franken was asked whether he believed that Comey’s new investigation made a noticeable difference in Clinton’s performance in the election.
Franken replied cautiously, saying:
“Look, Nate Silver and others have said that’s when the momentum turned. That’s when the momentum shifted. Of course, I think that made an enormous difference, yes. I’m with you, guys.”
