Great question. The leading Democratic candidate for president, Hillary Clinton, is facing a number of scandals, including one that involves the potential mishandling of classified information over an unsecured network. It is a scandal of Clinton’s own making, stemming solely from her insistence on using a personal email address on a private server to conduct her work at the State Department, an arrangement the department’s chief transparency officer has called “not acceptable.”

It’s safe to assume that Hillary deleted any emails that would be politically damaging, but who knows what new information may come out down the line. Seems a bit risky, to say the least.
