In July, WikiLeaks published more than 19,000 emails from top officials in the Democratic National Convention (DNC), which included names, addresses, and phone numbers. They suggested that Clinton’s then-rival in the primaries, Sen. Bernie Sanders, was pushed to the wayside in favor of Clinton. The discovery led to the resignation of chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz and other DNC officials.
The source of the leak was not disclosed, as is WikiLeaks’ policy, but some U.S. officials claimed Russian hackers were behind the breach.
According to the Politico report, the same reporter asked Clinton on Tuesday about whether any more potential leaks from Assange would impact the race. “Well, I don’t know anything about what he’s talking about,” Clinton said.
