The real story here is not the effect of Comey's "October Surprise" on the election but the back story about the FBI, which is in a state of revolt against politicized leadership.
[Former assistant FBI director James Kallstrom] said Sunday that Bill and Hillary Clinton are part of a “crime family” and argued top officials hindered the investigation into Hillary Clinton’s private email server while she was secretary of State.… Kallstrom also said that FBI Director James Comey and the rest of the FBI’s leadership were responsible for holding back the investigation, not the rest of the bureau.
“The agents are furious with what’s going on, I know that for a fact,” he said.Difficult to know Comey's motive for releasing this news, but the speculation is that fear of a whistleblower in the department doing it first and the potential for being charge with obstruction of justice himself may have led Comey to cover his ass, especially since he is under heavy fire from Republican leaders in congress and Trump is gaining in some polls.
The US is really turning into a banana republic.
The good news is that the Clinton campaign that "Putler did it" on this one, unless maybe they argue that Anthony Weiner was a Putin plant or defected to the Rooskies after he imploded himself.

However, the really concerning matter in all this is that the American intelligence services appear to be have been compromised by the elite and bent to their interests instead of serving the people as their mission and oath requires.

A Hillary supporter suggests that some people in the FBI may had planted the emails on Weiner's computer that was seized.
OK, not Putler anyway.

I think that Putin, Weiner, and Trump have been texting each other pictures of their private parts along with Hilary's e-mails. But, if those e-mails were on Weiner's computer who else's computer are the on? Also,let me suggest that if you watch Trump's speeches outside of the sick media's reporting then you may get a much different impression of him. He is not as irresponsible as they make out. The media want a neoliberal neocon as president and Trump talks of protectionism and peace. I am amazed that anyone swallows what is told on the evening bull shit. Not a Republican.
