GREEN BAY, WI -- Democratic Vice Presidential nominee Sen. Tim Kaine says he is "not surprised" by FBI Director James Comey's latest decision to continue not pursuing charges against Hillary Clinton.

Sen. Kaine provided the comments to NBC26 immediately following a rally in Green Bay:

"...not surprised. I mean, when the letter came out two Fridays ago, it was obviously kind of a curve ball. But, the decision that they made after a lengthy investigation that no reasonable prosecutor would move forward on this, and that that decision wasn't even close, was so unequivocal that we didn't think they would find anything that would change it. And.. again, I'm just hearing of it, too. But, it sounds like the FBI Director's conclusion is as we thought it would be."
