The Latest: Clinton says email rules different for Hillary

Bill Clinton says it was a mistake for Hillary Clinton to maintain a personal email server even though her predecessors and her successor at the State Department did it.

But the former president says his wife should have known that there would be a different set of rules applied to her if she ran for the presidency.

Bill Clinton defended the Democratic nominee for president Friday during a question-and-answer period at a Las Vegas forum organized by Asian American Pacific Islander journalism and voter advocacy groups.

Clinton says it didn’t occur to diplomats sending the emails at the time that they should be concerned with records classification.
