WASHINGTON (AP) - U.S. employers
added 171,000 jobs in October, and hiring was stronger in August and September
than first thought. The unemployment rate inched up to 7.9 percent from 7.8
percent in September.
The Labor
Department's last look at hiring before Tuesday's election sketched a picture
of a job market that's gradually gaining momentum after nearly stalling in the
spring.
Since
July, the economy has created an average of 173,000 jobs a month. That's up
from 67,000 a month from April through June.
