PEMBROKE PINES, Fla. (AP) — Donald Trump is promising to take his campaign into traditional Democratic territory as a sign that he’s not giving up on appealing to people outside the Republican Party. Hillary Clinton is focusing her efforts in the campaign’s final days on energizing voters who usually support the Democratic nominee but may need an extra boost.

To do that, Clinton is pressing her case with music and sports celebrities, a strategy Trump dismissed. He told supporters in North Carolina: “I just have me … but I have my family.”

A brief scare Saturday night disrupted Trump’s rally in Reno, Nevada, when Secret Service agents suddenly hustled the Republican nominee off the stage. The agency later said someone near the stage had shouted “Gun!” but a subsequent apprehension and search revealed no weapon.

Meanwhile, Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Kaine says some employees at the FBI are “actively working” to support Republican Donald Trump and the agency has suffered a “massive blow” to its reputation.

The Democratic vice presidential nominee says in an interview with Fusion that the FBI had become a “leaky sieve” and some of its employees have improperly worked to leak information harmful to running mate Hillary Clinton.
