There is discussion about if she passed classified information to people not authorized to receive classified information, but you can argue that until you are blue in the face - Who decided the information was classified, who knew it was classified, who sent it to who, and who was or was not authorized to read said classified information?

Most likely we will not have a decision on this until after the election. Even if found guilty, they will look at damage and intent. There was no damage, and there was no bad intention. The charges would minimal, and would include a small fine.
The Republican Red Necks have nothing else to go for. Trump won't win. And should Clinton be indicted and thrown out, the VP takes over. Leaving the GOP with nothing, which is where they started.

My real point isn't about her being guilty, it's about the damage being done to the US by the GOP's inability to pick a decent candidate for their voters to get behind. Trump's win shows how far the GOP has strayed from its supporters.
