Hillary Clinton begins a two-day swing in Florida on Monday. Her first stop will be in Pinellas County where she will tour a local brewery in St. Petersburg. Clinton will then head to the Coliseum, also located in St. Petersburg, where she will outline her plan to “make the biggest investment in good-paying jobs since World War II,” according to her campaign.
The event begins at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time, with Clinton expected to speak around 4:00 p.m. It can be viewed in the embedded YouTube player via Hillary Clinton Speeches & Events.
The Democratic nominee will also visit Kissimmee, Florida on Monday to hold another rally from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. at Osceola Heritage Park Exhibition Hall.
On Tuesday, Clinton will head south to Miami where she plans to raise awareness about the threat posed by the Zika virus.
New poll averages released Sunday show Hillary Clinton with a 2 point lead over Donald Trump in Florida, which shows how crucial Florida is expected to be in this presidential race. Last week, Democratic Vice Presidential candidate, Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine, and GOP nominee Donald Trump both made stops in Daytona Beach.
While Clinton is currently leading Trump in most polls, many surveys have shown many do not feel she is trustworthy. On Saturday, she addressed a crowd of journalists during a joint convention of black and Hispanic journalists in an open forum.
During the press conference, Clinton was asked about the private email server she used while at the State Department. She told the reporters that her answers were truthful, but admitted using a private server was “a mistake” in hindsight.
“That’s really the bottom line here and I have said, during the interview and in many other occasions over the past months, that what I told the FBI, which he said was truthful, is consistent with what I have said publicly,” Clinton said.
“So I may have short-circuited it and for that, I will, you know, try to clarify,” she added.
