US hiring slows and unemployment rises a month before election
Original: US hiring slows and unemployment ticks higher with a month remaining before Americans head to polls
US employers added fewer jobs than expected and the unemployment rate edged higher, according to the latest monthly labor market figures, released with roughly one month left before Americans vote in the presidential election. The slowdown in hiring and the rise in joblessness give voters and campaigns fresh economic data to weigh in the final stretch of the campaign.
Why now: Weak jobs data landing weeks before the US presidential election puts the economy at the center of campaign debate.
