She acknowledged wanting to "never leave the house again" and subtly criticized Donald Trump in a speech Wednesday as she was being honored by the Children's Defense Fund.

The national polls weren't that far off, but something was clearly up in the state polls.

While Republicans have held relatively steady since 2008 with urban and suburban voters, they have made considerable gains in rural America.

Men, voters in key counties and white people — particularly less-educated whites — helped Donald Trump vault past Hillary Clinton to win the presidential election.

Women, Hispanics and (surprise!) white evangelicals could be some of the most interesting storylines of the night.

Women prefer Clinton by about the same amount that men prefer Trump, and it could lead to the widest gulf between the sexes since at least the 1950s.

It can be done. How? Because of the Electoral College. In fact, through the years, the winner-take-all system the U.S. employs has skewed result after result.

This follows a broader pattern throughout this campaign: When Trump's chances go up, stocks go down.

Early voting makes casting a ballot easier for some people, but it might not boost turnout overall.

White evangelicals are some of Donald Trump's strongest backers. But another reliably Republican group of Christians — Mormons — is leery of the GOP candidate. Here's why.

A new survey shows that white evangelicals are much more willing now than they were a few years ago to vote for politicians whose personal behavior has been "immoral."

Everyone watched the same debate, but not everyone watched the same post-game coverage. That can make all the difference.

Sexual allegations against Donald Trump have come out in a torrent. Here is a list of who has accused the Republican nominee of what and when.

Donald Trump is insisting the presidential election will be rigged. There is about zero chance of that happening. It would require an unprecedented, bipartisan and broad-sweeping conspiracy.

Evangelicals are always an important voting bloc in presidential elections. But who exactly are they? We break down the term, the numbers behind it, and the influence of evangelical voters.

Blame the substance, the tape, the timing or the "tipping point," but the surge of Republican desertions happened because Trump's offense hit them where they live — both personally and politically.

Long story short: The right is very, very Christian, while the left is much less so.

It's a historic election, with the first female major-party nominee. But for all that, Trump's masculinity has been on unusually prominent display.

Voters' minds are stubborn, and politicians habitually spout falsehoods. That doesn't mean fact-checking is a failure, though.

The plan would also help the rich more than the middle class, according to the Tax Foundation. And there's still one huge, $1.5 trillion uncertainty in the plan.
