US Election 2016 Polls And Odds Tracker: Latest Forecast Hillary Clinton's Lead Over Donald Trump Narrows After FBI Revelations.

The news that the FBI has reopened its investigation into Hillary Clinton's use of a private server to send, receive and store government emails has handed Donald Trump an unexpected boost ahead of next Tuesday.

The FBI has obtained a warrant to begin searching newly discovered emails belonging to Huma Abedin, a top aide of Hillary Clinton, with Clinton's use of emails also in the spotlight.

There is no sign that this new investigation will be completed by election day and it seems that Clinton will have to fight the final week of her campaign with unspecified allegations hanging over her.

This is ideal for Trump who was shown to be as many as 14 points behind Clinton in some polls before this latest scandal.

Clinton has been ahead almost continuously in the Telegraph's poll of polls, which takes an average of the last five polls published on Real Clear Politics.

She still retains a lead, but this could change in the coming days with some polls now showing a far closer race.
