Top Clinton aide predicts record turnout

Source: The Hill

Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, Robby Mook, on Sunday touted the Democratic nominee's progress in the general election and predicted record turnout.

"We feel very, very good about what we've seen so far," Mook said on "Fox News Sunday" when asked if he has a sense about what kind of strength Clinton has at this point in the election. "We predict that this is going to be the biggest election in American history. More people are going to turn out than ever before."

Mook added that the campaign is encouraged by who is turning out to vote. "We are very proud of the ground game that we've built. We see if delivering the results that we expected," Mook said.

"We believe over 40 percent of voters in the battleground states are going to turn our before Election Day. This election is happening as we speak and that ground game is there pushing out people out"
