Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump met in Las Vegas on Wednesday night for the third and final presidential debate. To help us determine the winner, we enlisted the help of three of our political writers and columnists to act as judges. Each judge scored every round as a win, lose or draw and declared Hillary Clinton the winner at the end. See all our debate coverage on Trail Guide.
