Bill Clinton to travel with wife to debate
Hillary Clinton will have some presidential support as she heads to Hempstead, New York, for her debate: her husband, former president Bill Clinton.
An aide to the former president says he’ll travel to the debate with his wife. The aide isn’t saying yet whether Bill Clinton will actually attend the debate.
The aide isn’t authorized to discuss Bill Clinton’s plans by name and requests anonymity.
The debate’s run-up has been filled with speculation about who will or won’t attend. Donald Trump’s campaign walked back his suggestion that he might invite Gennifer Flowers, a woman who had an affair with Bill Clinton.
