Hillary Clinton must hate email now. First there was the Democratic presidential nominee's irresponsible use of a private server while she was secretary of State, for which she's apologized. And now there are newly released emails from her State Department aides that give the impression she played favorites in providing access to Clinton Foundation donors.

The latter story comes courtesy of the Associated Press, and it turns out the suppositions underpinning its investigation might be a little shaky. The Clinton team and even some news pundits are pushing back against the AP, insisting its reporters cherry-picked information and excluded meaningful context.

The Washington Post's Paul Waldman sighed in frustration at all the speculation over the past couple of days about Clinton possibly granting access and favors to foundation donors. "The only problem [with that accusation] is that the emails in question reveal nothing of the sort," Waldman writes. "What they actually reveal is that a few foundation donors wanted access, but didn't actually get it."

Plus there's the fact that the Clinton Foundation is not a personal money-making enterprise for the Clintons, despite what Republican nominee Donald Trump likes to suggest. It's a charity -- by all accounts one of the very best, earning an "A" grade from the independent watchdog group CharityWatch.

Political strategist and longtime Clinton adviser James Carville, disgusted by the partisan attacks on the foundation, said: "Somebody is going to hell" for potentially hobbling an organization that saves lives and makes the world better.

Whether anyone is getting an express ticket to hades can be left to religious scholars to address. The question for the moment is: Do voters really care about Clinton's various email controversies?

That's what the internet-security firm Secure Thoughts wanted to know. So the company says it surveyed 5,000 Republicans and 5,000 Democrats across the country about Clinton's email troubles. It did this through Facebook's ad platform, which company representative Ryan Taylor points out "allows you to target demographics in an extremely granular manner. State location and political affiliation were the main parameters used."

Here's the question Secure Thoughts asked: "On a scale of 1-10, 10 being the most and 1 being the least, how much do you care about both the Hilary Clinton and DNC email scandals and how they factor into the 2016 election?"

How accurately does the survey represent the country's views on Clinton's email controversies? That's hard to know for certain. As mentioned, Secure Thoughts is an internet-security company, not an established polling firm. That said, its heat map on the subject is definitely interesting. It shows, for example, that Indiana (home of GOP vice-presidential candidate Mike Pence) and states where Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders did especially well in the Democratic primaries had the highest percentage of people who were very concerned about the email scandals. Check out the map below.

The Clinton team, for its part, is trying to move on from all the email talk. Clinton is expected to attack Trump in a speech today about his embracing (and thus "normalizing") extreme "alt-right" conspiracy theories and positions. And Ricardo Reyes, co-founder of Republicans for Clinton, put out a statement about Trump's attempt to broaden his appeal by "softening" his stance on mass deportations of illegal immigrants.

"Donald Trump's latest flip-flop on immigration is a craven attempt to walk back previous remarks that were too extreme even for his predominantly-white audiences," Reyes said. "Donald Trump is playing race baiting games, trying to pit African Americans and Hispanics against each other and against immigrants. It won't work. Immigrants come in every shade and ethnicity."
