The number of emails sent or received on Hillary Clinton's server deemed "classified" has reached 60 and is expected to climb as investigators continue to comb through the 30,000-plus pages of emails she has turned over to the State Department, The Washington Times reports.
The final number is expected to be in the hundreds, the Times reported on Sunday, citing sources that say the review of her emails is likely to continue until January.
Of the 60 emails, one was flagged with the intermediate ranking of "secret," according to the Times. "Confidential" is the lowest ranking for material that contains government secrets.
The 60 emails cited did not include the two recently deemed "top secret," the highest level of classification.
Clinton last week turned her private server over to the FBI, but said it already has been wiped of any emails she sent or received while serving as secretary of state. Critics say the server was not secure and that hackers from other governments may have seen her emails, exposing American secrets and methods of intelligence-gathering.
Clinton downplayed those concerns over the weekend, saying any questions about her server are part of a Republican partisan attack.
Rep. Trey Gowdy, chairman of the House Select Committee on Benghazi denied those allegations of Sunday, saying that he is certain the FBI, which now has control of the server, is nonpartisan and will deal with them fairly.
Intelligence Community Inspector General I. Charles McCullough III, who is looking into the actual emails, was appointed by President Barack Obama and confirmed by a Democrat-controlled Senate.
