We will continue monitor the results throughout the evening. But former President Donald Trump has built up a massive lead of more than 30 points. Thus far over nikki haley in this republican primary. And whil e joe biden appears well on the way to winning the democratic primary, wellg sn in what is an alarming sign, tea 14 biden roughly 16 of voterse in the result we have so voted for the option of uncommitted. Its going to buncoe to watch tonight. In recent weeks, democrats, they have expressed their angera over joe bidens stance on the war in israelr in and mot notably squad member michigan congresswoman tulsi now in there calls for democrats to vote uncommitted as theye push for a ceasefire. While today, accordinguncommite to congresswoman to leave, she well, did just that take a look. We wantedey e to tweet us. I was proue d to walk in and pul a democratic ballot and vote uncommitted. We must protect our democracy. We must make sure that our government is about us, about thment ie people. 74 when 74 of democrats in michigan support a ceasefire. Yet President Biden is notis ish hearing us. This is the way we can use our democracy to say, listen, listen to michigan, listen to the families right now that have been directly impacted, but also listenjority to the majority of americans who are saying enough, no more wars, no more using our dollars to fund a , no more. All right. This is a fox news word. We can now project that donald j. Trump will easily beatd j. Nikki haley in the Michigan Republican primary. And joe biden has won the democratic p primary. But were watching the uncommitted numbers tonightg and is receiving now over 15 . Right now. Prominent democrats watching this. There sounding the alarm over this protest vote and what it could mean for. Biden now, Take A Look At What Perspective Democratic strategist James Carville and what he had to say. Take a listen. O sa there is this push to have people in state fill in uncommitted to as a protest vote. T its very hard to measure when you want to be super concerned about it, when its a red flag. In 2012, there were 20,000 people who wrote in uncommitted for obama. What is the bar where youre going to think, oh my gosh, thi is a huge problem . Well, i already know what happens. I know its a huge problemproble and duncan great will do say that i will. By the way. Circle back, circle back his back on tv. How interesting. Well, anyway, apparently the sentiment is now being felt by team biden as well. According to a new report, the white house and his 2024 reelection campaign, theyre, quote, freaking out that biden is bleeding support from arabm American Voters in michigan. One of the groups that helpeterd elect him in the first place. Joining us now to break down these numbert s is the host of Special Report right here on the fox news channel. Pecialnow, you notice the used e the hannity big board, then the hammer, big board. Nowre c, tonight, were callt it the big board. But hes at that board tonight. Big numbers tonight, bret. Yeah. Hey, sean, im just borrowing the board, just the ninth michigan primary. Its interesting, as you mentioned the former president winning. Well take a look at the republican side. You know, theres 16 delegates tonight. Theres 39 delegates at a State Convention over the weekend. They had to split it up overe rules. Two but as we dig in here to the numbers and there you see 12e about 12 in and 65 to 30. Now, a lot of these counties have not filled in, but if you look down here in detroit, you know, they havent even filed yet. But next door, this is a washtenad w. This is where University Of Michigan is, ann arbor. If nikki haley was going to have a big night, she had to have won right there. And you see the former president , thats 55 in if you look over here at grand rapids. Again, not a lot 55 numbers yet. Number this state has beens. Reallyr interesting for republicans. If you think back to the last elections, 2016, this turnedrnet into trump country. All of Thiums Upper Michigan part. And thats what makes it so interesting for the genera makei election. He hes going to win big. All the polls headin i wing in y him up significantly. But really how union. Voters vote in the general election, if were going to have this head to head againl. And how ab American Voters vote. You mentione. D the democratic primary and the pushback against the policy of thee bide Biden Administration by arab americans, specifically led by congresswoman rashida tlaib. Now, its at 16. 2 . But you look at some of these counties coming in. Klan cod again, i pushed to Oakland County that 14. If you go to again, ann arbor, look at this 23. 8. Youre going to see some of these numbers. Ic some of the democratic experts on the ground think that the Uncommittes D vote could get upt to about 100,000 votes. 0 now, it depends on how many coull democrats vote, but that could be a significant signal to the forme sigr president. I want to take you back justt really quickly to the calendar. And what we have ahead. Obviously, were coming to the end of februarady right here. In the michigan primary. But if you go over to marc youh the next big contest is obviously tuesday, super tuesdabiy. And youve got 15 contests, 11 of them are open primaries. Democrats and independents can vote in them , but a lotof of delegates at stake. And then if you go back, you could have a scenario whereby these big states start to add up delegates. The former president could start clinching the nomination. And thats what were looking at, how long it takes, whether nikki haley stayt cos in or not after super tuesday. But tonight in the michigan primarstays r y, the former president is rolling and its just a matter of how big the margin. Brad, i think youre in the right to call it the big board. Great analysis. Just on the gist b of it, just to know what will get you here on big board. Youve been around and i think youve earned it. All right, professor, Special Report. Hannity brk you, sir. All right. Yesterday, joe biden embarked on a disastrous trip to new york city. He joined seth meyers on his t jote nightri show for an extremely unfunny appearance. There shoulh Myd Have Beenunu a layup for biden sitting for a pretaped show with a liberal host who struggled, who struggles to get close to a Million Viewers a night. In fact, as the Hollywood Reporter pointed million viewert month, he wasnt even averaging 800,000 viewers a night. How does he survive on ts v . But during his appearance, biden tried to ease concerns over eas his age before Laterwhy Cargetting what year it was. Ea you cant actually make this up. You decide. Take a look. You are currently 81 years old. L who the hell told you that . Yeahd . Thats classified. Thats classified. All jokes aside, according fo to recent polling, this is a real concern for American Voters. How do you addressameric that cr Going Forward as you come upd to the 2024 election . Well, a couple of things. Number one, you got to Takeeleci Ontogether Guy whos about as od as i am. Its about how old your ideas are. Look i mean, this is a guy who wants to take us back. He wants to take us back. And roe wade. He wants to take us back on a whole range of issues that are 50, 60 years that mean solid american positions. What you what do you want to do . Whats your 2024 agenda . Because i feel like we live in such crazy times that that is one of the things i feel we hear less about. Look, the 2020 agenda is to finish the job. All right. After filming the show, e biden joined seth meyers for ice cream. Remember his favorite flavor is. Take a look. R what to do of like mr. , ch chocolate Chocolate Chip cadbury or anything to be dropped. Chocolate Chocolate Chip. M wow. And by the way, he broke some pretty major news while eating new his Ice Cream Cone. Take a look at this. You give us a sense of where you think thisa look a empire will start. Well, i hope by the weekend, i mean the end of the weekendnae at least part in my mindcu as Security Adviser tells me that were close. Were close to not done yet. E. My hope is by next monday, well have a ceasefire. Okay. E. Really . Ve joe biden, youre going to announce to the world that toe in gaza may be around the corner. Now, according to National Security adviser, while eating an Ice Cream Cone with a very unfunny Late Night Host by the name of seth meyers, while unfud and failed Againjoe Bide to ease concerns over his age, more democrats, they are now sounding the alarm as former obama aides are noalarm,w expreg concerns over what they exl saying is a frai and mumbling biden. And add to that, by the way, his age a very real issue. Obama aideverys have sounding kd of like me more and more every day. Thanks for. Anyway, here with reaction, former senior trump adviser stephen Fox News Contributor ari fleischer. Good to see you both. Ari, start with you. What do you make of the uncommitted number, michigan . This would be a very, importane state for donald trump to win if he wants to win the general election. Real clear politics average now has him up by five thoughts. Well, its not unusual to have candidates get a certain percentage of the vote. Its happened previously in democratic primaries. Bides different now is its joe biden and its an expression of real expression that much in the Democratic Base is dissatisfied side with him. And so i would not look at this historically and say its happened. Id say its another indication that biden is wounded and hes wounded himself. And the question here, though, sean, and this is what republicans to be sober about is, is this a protest vote and will come homet come in october . And my advice to republicans, i do think most of these hom w people are uncommitted now, will come home in october. This is going to be a closl e election in november. And republicans shouldnt assume because of all thesine which are legit real issues, thats going to be a cakewalk. It will not be either. Either comlle home or maybe stal home. Stephen miller. Yeahk. , well, i do think theres a very real concern on the part of the Biden Campaign and the Democrat Party that voters are so uninspired and soso worried about joe biden that they will stay home. And they add on top of that, o of course, the problem with error, voters in michigan who are demanding that joe biden push, a radicalradica left cease fire policy with the war in gaza, which of course unc would be unacceptable to most American Voters. And so theyre theyre between mai the radical base and mainstream public opinion. But i do want to agree with ari when i say, well, this is the, party that dragged John Fetterman over the finish line at a point in time when he couldnt even campaignh li through aggressive, robust Ballot Harvesting effortne s. The Republican Party needs to understand as they head into 2024, as joe biden calls into 2020 campaign, they need to understand how mischievous, how determined, how relentless d democrats are going to be in filling up every single drop box all around the country with mail in ballots. And they must have a strategy to counter the democrats in ballot machine, whichch is truly a leviathan i. Nity well, stephen, let men, follow up on that, because i woulet md argue 2022, the reaa the big quote wave didnt happenrgue. Par i would argue in large part it had to do with abortion. You mentioned pennsylvania. You had a top of the ticket. Democrat doug mastriano, nice guy, but he didnt even have exceptions, of the mothers life. He los t by, what, 15, 16 points. Dr. Oz was abl e to get, dou you know, double digit ticket switching. In other wordse digi, they voter a democrat for governor. But the republican odds in thigs case for the senate had mastriano not had that position. I would argue that that race would have been a lot closer and odds would be in the u. S. Senate today. Senai think this is a Cautioe En Retail for every republican. You see the reaction on the lefsee the t in this couy on the issue of the of ivf, in vitro fertilization, the Alabama Court decision and clearly republicans better message that in new York District three, almost every ad was about abortion and that the ad was that republicans going to take away a womans right to choose and republicans better message better, because thats not the case. That is not what the dobbs decision, that it what said. Well, ill just say that the answer is yes. And bothn an absolutely. It hurt the Republican Party, the midterms to be portrayed as the party that doesnt even midtt for cases of , and the life of the mother. It is also true that democrats have mastered the art of hammering that message to a specific demographic of female voters aggressively, relentlessly with hundreds of millions of dollars in spend, and then sending Workers Unios in spen ws to their house, sending teachers unions to their house, sending canvassers their house to collect that mail in ballot. As the combination of that hyper focused messaging on specific issues to Specificch Subsets of voters with the Ballot Harvesting operatioe n that made them so effective in 2022. And its essential that republicans understand the enormity of the machine. They wils unl be facing, no matr how decline, senile, incompetent embarrassing, humiliating and disgraceful joe biden is and remains eacracd every day. E well, i agree with you and ive been with singing from the same hymnal here. Ive been warning republicansur you better overcome your reluctance and resistance towards early voting, voting b by mail. And i was really hopeful when i heard lara trump, who is looks like shes going to be at the rnc. They will and they will institute what is the largest legal ballot Harve Harvesting Efforts weve ever seen. That is critical. Republicans if they want to win. Ari, i want you to weigh in on both the abortio n, the ivf issue and the issue of legal Ballot Harvesting. Well, number one, youve got to play offense if youre running in this cycle, if youre running in any cyclee,but you need to play offense and put the democrat on the defensive about the borderon t defensi, about infla, about support for joe biden. These are the biggest issues. Now, you also have to play smart defense and the smart defens e on. Abortion is just to take it on directly and make your case to the voter s. Most voters are right in the middle on abortion. Midthey the democrat efforts to allow abortion right up to the day of birth. They also are opposed to ad oppe national ban on abortion. And republicans, in my opinion, need to be somewhere right in that zone whers e the American People are and make that clear. And that is what we are, prolife is what and youre for the three exceptions, as you talked about, sean, but the mindseset of every candidate is play offense and make every democrat on the ballotcratic on the biden economy, the biden border, the biden inflation and all the message that joe biden has brought us. You win by playing offense. Yeah, i totally agree. What i would push gavin newsom on the issue of any restrictions on abortion, no mattern ne how many times i went back at it, he refused to answer. I that was the answer. All right, stephen, ari, thank you so much. Both of you. Ri here now with more reaction to tonights breaking news, former speaker of the house news contributor newt gingrich. All right. Let nute s lets look first ate republican primary. One has to ask, especially after saturday nighty haletonight, why is nikki haley ranging around in this race . I think at some point there will be a lot of resentment among republicans that she is literally forcing donald trump, who will be the nominee and to spending money he otherwise could be using in a general election campaign. Your reaction . Well, first of all, i dont think shes goin g to force President Trump to spend anything because hes going to beat her. And every single primary in the country, thats just to happen. Second, the longer she staysn, in, the more she will alienate republicans. This theory that shes hanging around in case something happens to trump so she can then be the choice. No maga republican, no trump delegate is ever going to pick nikki haley. They will pick any of a dozen 50 republicans who are acceptable, but they arenthey t going to pick her. And you saw that in nevada where she lost by 2 to 1 by none of these candidates. I mean, when of these candidates beat you by 2 to 1, theres a theres a hint that maybe youre in the wrong game this year. I hopa e shell drop out. I hope shell become part of the effort to bea andt joe bn. I do not think its helpful to have her out there saying nasty things about ther republican nominee. And as far aher tos im concern. Donald trump tonight is theld tu republican nomineemp. Er this is over. And the issues to focus. On the general election and why trump would be a dramatically better in 2025 than joe b
