President Barack Obama warned yesterday that too few African Americans were turning out for early voting as Donald Trump gained on Hillary Clinton in both national and swing-state polls.

美國總統巴拉克.奧巴馬(Barack Obama)昨日警告稱,參加提前投票的非裔美國人太少了。目前在全國和搖擺州的民意調查中,唐納德.特朗普(Donald Trump)的支持率正在逼近希拉里.克林頓(Hillary Clinton)。

The black vote was not as solid as it needs to be, Mr Obama told a nationally syndicated radio show that is popular with African Americans

as he sought to rally voters by telling them his legacy was on the line.

他試圖動員選民,稱他的政治遺產處於危險狀態。

The plea came six days before the election as three of the four latest polls showed Mr Trump and Mrs Clinton neck and neck, suggesting that voters have become wary of the Democrat since her email scandal returned to the headlines.

美國總統在距離投票還有六天的時候發出懇求。四個最新民調中的三個顯示,特朗普和希拉里的支持率不相上下,這似乎表明,自希拉里電郵醜聞重回頭條新聞以來,選民們已對民主黨產生戒心。

Mrs Clinton now has a lead of just 1.9 points in the average of recent polls compiled by RealClearPolitics, down from 7.1 points in mid-October.

根據RealClearPolitics彙編結果,希拉里在最近民調中的平均支持率僅僅領先特朗普1.9個百分點,遠低於10月中旬的7.1個百分點。

The shift in the race has unnerved investors, who had been betting on a Clinton victory, sparking the longest slide in the US stock market in five years and sending investors into less risky assets such as US government debt and gold.

選情變化嚇壞了此前一直押注希拉里會獲勝的投資者,引發了美國股市五年來持續最久的跌勢,並推動投資者轉向美國國債和黃金等風險較低的資產。

The Vix, an index of expected US market volatility known as Wall Street’s fear gauge, has risen to highs last seen after the UK’s vote to leave the EU.

有華爾街恐慌指標之稱的Vix指數(衡量美國市場預期波動率的指標)已上升至英國脫歐投票以來的最高點。

Democratic concern about black voters —— comes amid signs from the swing states of North Carolina and Florida that African Americans are turning out in lower numbers than the Clinton campaign had hoped.

民主黨對黑人選民感到擔心之際,北卡羅來納州和佛羅里達州等搖擺州有跡象表明,參加提前投票的非裔美國人比希拉里競選陣營此前希望的要少。

who helped catapult Mr Obama to victory in 2008 and 2012

在2008年和2012年,黑人選民曾幫助奧巴馬取得勝利。

While Mrs Clinton was not expecting to secure the same number of black supporters as the man who became the first African American president, she needs as strong a turnout as possible.

儘管希拉里並不指望獲得與成爲第一位非洲裔美國總統的男人數量相同的黑人支持者,但她需要儘可能多的黑人選民參與投票。
