Clinton 'illness' at 9/11 memorial could cost her votes

Hillary Clinton's apparent illness at a 9/11 memorial event could add fuel to rumours over her health fired up by her rival Donald Trump.

The Democratic presidential nominee declined to answer questions as she emerged from her daughter's apartment in New York after leaving a memorial event early having become "overheated".

It comes after Trump and his supporters repeatedly raised unverified allegations over her physical fitness to stand.

Clinton was clearly keen to shrug off her brief malaise - but it could lead voters who have so far ignored the health rumours to watch her a little more closely.
