Trump supporters and sympathetic media figures have been frustrated with the absence of Spygate-related indictments to date. However, Attorney General Barr has given us clues as to the real objective of the Durham investigation, upon which Barr is receiving regular briefings from Durham. He has repeatedly signaled that he expects Durham to, paraphrasing, “go where the evidence takes him,” and that anyone who broke the law will be prosecuted if the evidence warrants it. There is already much evidence on the public record about individuals involved in Spygate perjuring themselves, making false statements, and lying to Congress (e.g., Comey, Brennan, Clapper, Strzok, McCabe, and others). Yet, no indictments have been brought against INDIVIDUALS. That fact would tend to confirm speculation that Durham is instead pursuing a wide-ranging conspiracy charge involving many if not all participants, which would be a main reason for the delay. And with the Clintons now being tied into Spygate, the development of prosecutable evidence for the entire conspiracy will take additional time.
Furthermore, there would be additional grounds for a RICO investigation of the Spygate participants by tying in Clinton and Democrat National Committee money that enabled the conspiracy – also requiring time to develop. And finally, with the Clintons now tied into Spygate, Durham could seat grand juries in other jurisdictions besides Democrat-controlled New York, Washington DC, and Northern Virginia to obtain the necessary indictments. All this takes time.

Summary:
There are good reasons for Durham delaying indictments: Mueller SCO criminality and direct Clinton ties to Spygate.
Durham is almost certainly pursuing conspiracy and RICO charges against the Spygate conspirators and their funders.
The political implications of deferring indictments until after 3 November could actually favor the President.
As a chaser, a lack of indictments does not preclude a guilty plea or two before 3 November. That’s entirely possible, too.
