In an odd coincidence, the last two election cycles have seen a drastic, unexpected drop in the unemployment rate immediately before the election. And in 2012 and 2010, the unemployment rate increased the month or the next after the election. Just as big a coincidence, both 2014 and 2012 saw the drop come in September, but reported in October, the best time to report supposed good news on the economy.

I remember lefties bashing when unemployment was under 6% in the Bush admin and that admin included those who dropped out of the labor force. Then that 6% unemployment rate was the worst since the great depression.
