Story highlights
Comey's initial letter to Congress was the very definition of the October surprise
Comey essentially lifted that cloud of suspicion from her campaign Sunday
Washington (CNN)FBI Director James Comey provided Hillary Clinton a reprieve less than 48 hours before Election Day -- but the damage he inflicted on her campaign may already be done.

Comey's initial letter to Congress on October 28 was the very definition of the October surprise, rocking Clinton's campaign and giving Donald Trump's team a surge of momentum at a time when Clinton seemed to be coasting toward victory.
Eleven days before the election, Comey announced the FBI had discovered new emails that could be pertinent to the investigation into the former secretary of state's private email server, an inquiry that he had said was concluded this summer.
On Sunday, two days before the election, Comey essentially lifted that cloud of suspicion from her campaign -- signaling that his agency's new discovery of emails would not lead to criminal charges against Clinton.
"Based on our review, we have not changed our conclusions that we expressed in July," Comey said in his letter to top congressional Republicans.
Millions of votes already cast
While the news was welcomed by Democrats who worried that the initial announcement had inflicted serious damage to her campaign, it came after a week in which millions of early votes were cast around the United States. Moreover, many voters made up their minds in the last week, leaving Democrats furious about the last-minute announcement.
Though the race between Clinton and Trump was always expected to tighten in the final days, Comey's initial announcement was expected, at the very least, to depress turnout on Clinton's behalf. Her allies and advisers worry it has cost her votes among independents and Republican women who -- repelled by Trump -- had considered supporting her campaign.
A senior Democrat close to the Clinton campaign told CNN's Jeff Zeleny Sunday that it was "impossible to fully undo the damage of the last nine days," but acknowledged there was a sense of relief within the campaign that the matter was resolved.
