希拉里被診斷出患有肺炎

Hillary Clinton’s sudden departure from a September 11 memorial ceremony on Sunday after becoming overheated came two days after she was diagnosed with pneumonia, according to a statement from her doctor that signalled the latest unexpected turn in the race for the White House.

上週日，希拉里•克林頓(Hillary Clinton)因感覺太熱，突然從一場9•11紀念活動中退場，而希拉里的醫生在一份聲明中表示，兩天前希拉里被診斷出患有肺炎。這標誌着角逐白宮寶座之爭出現了最新的意外轉折。

The disclosure comes after campaign aides had insisted for weeks that Mrs Clinton’s chronic cough reflected nothing more serious than seasonal allergies and mocked Republicans who suggested that the former secretary of state was ill.

在希拉里患有肺炎的消息披露之前，她的競選助手們幾周來一直堅稱她的慢性咳嗽只不過是季節性過敏、沒什麼大不了的，並對部分認爲希拉里患病的共和黨人予以嘲諷。

With only 35 per cent of voters calling Mrs Clinton trustworthy in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll, the episode threatens to erode her slim lead in the polls.

美國廣播公司新聞節目(ABC News)與《華盛頓郵報》(Washington Post)聯合展開的最新民調顯示，只有35%的選民認爲希拉里值得信任。此次肺炎風波可能會使希拉里在民調中的微弱領先優勢受到削弱。

Matt Mackowiak, a veteran Republican political operative, tweeted that Clinton aides were guilty of campaign malpractice for allowing several hours to elapse before revealing that the Democratic presidential candidate had been diagnosed two days earlier.

共和黨資深政工馬特•馬科維亞克(Matt Mackowiak)在Twitter上發帖稱，希拉里的助手們犯有競選舞弊之罪，因爲他們在風波發生數小時後才披露這位民主黨總統候選人兩天前被診斷出患病。

She enjoys a 5-point lead over her Republican rival in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll released on Sunday.

上述最新聯合民調顯示，希拉里領先她的共和黨對手5個百分點。

By a 46-41 margin, Mrs Clinton leads Mr Trump among likely voters in a four-way ballot that includes Libertarian and Green party candidates.

在一個包含自由黨(Libertarian)和綠黨(Green party)候選人的四候選人可能投票中，希拉里的得票率爲46%，領先於特朗普(Trump)的41%。

While Mrs Clinton has consistently led the race, the unpredictable contest is far from over.

雖然希拉里在此次選戰中一直領先，但這場結果難以預料的較量還遠未結束。
