Here are a few standouts from the thousands of photos taken during the 2016 U.S. election campaign
By Tuesday the election campaign will (finally) be over. Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump have participated in debates, made commercials, done interviews and a few news conferences. But the most common activity for the candidates is the campaign rally.
There were always signs of support — or not — in the crowd.
There has been a lot of talk about kissing, and more, around Trump's campaign.
After Clinton was called a "nasty woman" during a debate, her supporters co-opted the phrase to show their support.
There's always campaign swag, and this little guy tried to wear all the buttons at once.
Trump has often said Clinton should be in jail, and his supporters have echoed the mantra with T-shirts and costumes.
The candidates like to keep their family close while campaigning.
Trump's adult children often attended campaign events with him or as his surrogate. Here, Trump seems happy his wife Melania showed up on the campaign trail.
Bill Clinton spent a lot of time on the campaign trail, though typically not with his wife.
They also had their friends join them (Clinton knows more pop stars).
Especially in the last week of the campaign, Clinton recruited A-list celebrities, including Beyoncé and Jay-Z.
Katy Perry's song Roar is regularly on the playlist at Clinton campaign events.
Trump's most regular celebrity ally is former New York City mayor Rudy Giuliani.
Ted Nugent was a musical guest at a Trump rally on the weekend.
It must be nice to have the Obamas on your side.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren doubled the woman power when she showed up to Clinton events.
Both candidates had some tense moments at a rally.
Trump was rushed off stage by his security team on Nov. 5 and Clinton's security team jumped on stage in August.
But there were a few lighter moment too.
Trump showed off his affection for the flag and smiled at a rubber version of himself, while Clinton laughed off a rainstorm.
