Welcome to your world this morning the front runners in the battle for the white house, donald trump and Hillary Clinton topped their rival in florida, illinois and North Carolina donald trump lost to john kasich in ohio. It is not clear who won in missouri. Clinton is holding on to a slim lead over Bernie Sanders donald trump leading ted cruz by less than a point at this time. Donald trump did win the i didnt knower take all state of florida. That forced marco rubio to suspend his campaign. After tonight it is clear that while we are on the right side. This year bee want will be on the winning side with marco rubio out there are now just three names on the republican ballot, john kasich starts the day energized with the win and Hillary Clinton running on momentum trying to lock up the bid. Reporter it was the night Hillary Clinton had been hoping for. We are moving closer to securing the Democratic Party nomination and winning this election in november. Reporter with decisive victories, especially in ohio, clinton defied expectations and added to her lead over Bernie Sanders i want to congratulate senator sanders for the Vigorous Campaign he is waging reporter that is all she said about him as she pivoted to the general election and a likely match up against donald trump. When we hear a candidate for president call for rounding up 12 million immigrants, banning all muslims from entering u. S. , when he embraces torture that doesnt make him strong, it makes him wrong for his part, donald trump largely ignored clinton and basiced in his string of victories paul ryan called me the other day, tremendous call. I spoke with Mitch Mcconnell today. The fact is we have to bring our party together. I have to thank the people of the great state of ohio. I love you reporter john kasich got miss first win of the campaign faking his home state. He noted the contrast between his tone and trumps. I want to remind you again tonight that i will not take the low road to the highest office in the land. Reporter but john kasichs path is nearly impossible. There are not enough delegates left for him to win the g. O. P. Nomination and his only hope is that donald trump falls short and the Republican Party has a brokered convention. Marco rubio had hoped to have their role himself, but he got beat by donald trump in his home state whilst it is not gods plan that i be ppt in 2016 reporter with that he announced he was suspending his campaign. Still in the home support, he chastised the republican establishment the politics of res sentiments against other people will not leave us a fractured party but also a fractured Nation Reporter democrat Bernie Sanders did not shut out tuesday night. He picked up delegates in the states he lost and he pledged to keep his Progressive Campaign going the reason that we have divide all expectations is that we are doing something very radical in american politics. We are telling the truth. Reporter with Hillary Clinton so far ahead in the delegate count, sanders will need to win nearly 60 of the remaining delegates to close her lead. The math is also against ted cruz in the republican race. You wouldnt know it listening to his tuesday night speech. Tonight we continue to gain delegates and continue our march to 1237. Reporter for him to have a chance, he will need to win more than 80 of the remaining delegates most of the candidates picking up delegates last night on the republican side. Donald trump has the most right now. 621 delegates for donald trump. Ted cruz is still more than 200 behind. Marco rubio, as you can see, coming in third, although he has, as we pointed out, suspended his campaign. John kasich is last, even with that win in ohio. On the democratic side Hillary Clinton is leading 1100 pledged delegates, halfway to the magic number. Bernie sanders mass nearly 800. Her lead becomes larger when you factor in those super delegates. Were live in two of the biggest states. Lisa stark is with us. We start with ran dal pinkston. Starting with donald trump. Whats next . I suspect that if he is up at this early hour, a couple of miles behind me in palm beach, he is probably still celebrating. Look at what he has done. First of all, florida had two, which it would call favorite sons, jeb bush and marco rubio. Both of them out of the race. Yesterdays victory on another super tuesday for him decisive. Looking at the board. Donald trump coming in with 45 of the vote. 45 of the vote to marco rubios 27 . John kasich and ted cruz falling in behind. It is extremely a great victory for donald trump, which he makes sure that everybody knew about last night in a not News Conference at his club here in florida. What is interesting is that Donald Trumps race has been characterised by a lot of negativity. Weve seen the fist fights break out at some of the rallies, weve seen donald trump say hateful things from the podium but none of that seems to matter. Last night he painted himself as the victim of some political ads nobody has ever, ever, in the history of politics, received the kind of negative advertising that i have. Record, record, record. Mostly false, i wouldnt say 100 , but 90 . Vicious, horrible, mostly false reporter donald trump receiving a lot of negative publicity in recent days, not really seeming to matter to the people who went to the policies yesterday in florida and in two other states around the country as he came in with other impressive victories that David Shuster referenced. Donald trump now is on his way, another step towards securing the nomination for the republican president ial run donald trump not pointing to the free media that he has received throughout his entire campaign. Also that victory forcing marco rubio as we have been pointing out, to drop out of the race altogether. What it does that mean now and what happens to his delegates . Well, the delegates depends on the state. Each state has different rules. Donald trump cant assign his delegates, say, for instance, to ted cruz. Each states delegates will be determined by the rules of that particular state. For marco rubio its over for now. He left his seat in the senate to run for the presidency. He sounded last night as if he plans to make some kind of come back at some point. It was an almost tearful Farewell Speech that he made to his supporters in miami who really did not think that this could possibly happen. It leaves the Republican Party in an interesting place because keep in mind that marco rubio was the socalled establishment candidate, the one who was supposed to be able to take on donald trump. Now he is gone. Ted cruz is not exactly loved in the u. S. Senate, but he, because of the way things are working now, will probably be the person who will give donald trump the toughest time to get to the nomination and then theres john kasich who will be discussed by our colleague lisa stark a little bit later marco rubio on the front cover last night was very big for john kasich of ohio. Lisa stark is there this morning. Good morning. A big for governor john kasich. But does he stand a chance of getting the nomination . He is dead last in the delegate count, even with the ohio win, which is his first win. It is. It basically doubled his delegate counting 166 here last night. You cant get the nominations on delegates alone, but his advisers insist that this has reset the republican race. They say voters will now really be taking a look at john kasich and they will like what they see. He has promised he will stay in this until the convention here in thinks own state in june and he says that he is hoping really what he is hoping for ais a brokered convention, a contested convention that would hand him the nomination. Here is john kasich. You know what, look, this is all ive got, oshg. This is all ive got and all i can say is thank you from the bottom of my heart, but i want you to know something, were going to go all the way to cleveland and secure the republican nomination. Reporter but first he is on his way to phil this morning where he will be campaigning there. Phil phil. His advisers insist that the stakes Going Forward are favorable to him and his more moderate message, marilyn, connecticut, wisconsin. They think he will do well in those places. Marco rubios supporters will move over to john kasich as he becomes that socalled establishment candidate. Gep, he has got a hope for a win at the convention. He cant pick up the delicatessen gaets but he is promising to stay in the race until the builter end turning to the democrats, Hillary Clinton winning there in ohio, way ahead in the count. What is the next step for her and sanders . Reporter as weve said, what a huge night for Hillary Clinton. She won here in ohio, in illinois, in North Carolina. She will probably win in missouri. She has widened her delegate lead over Bernie Sanders and she is clearly looking on ahead, as you would expect. She is looking on ahead to that november election and her possible opponent donald trump. Here sa what she had to say. Our next president has to bring our country together so we can automatic share in the promise of america. We should be breaking down barriers, not building walls. Were not going to succeed by defying this country between us and them. Reporter to be great, we cant be small. We cant lose what made America Great in the first place. This isnt just about donald trump. All of us have to do our part. Reporter Bernie Sanders has to be disappointed after his surprise win in michigan he was hoping he could pick up ohio, illinois, missouri. He fell shourt in those first two and probably in missouri as well. His campaign sounds like john kasich. Theyre saying we look ahead, it looks good for us Going Forward and like john kasich Bernie Sanders says he is in it until the convention thank you for that. Lincoln mitchell is the National Political correspondent and a makting consultant are joining us to talk postday wrapup here. Thank you for being with us. Starting with the g. O. P. Party, how does the stop Trump Movement look this morning . It got stopped themselves a bit last night with his resounding victories, particularly in florida. He won it so great against the home senator who had ridden on a Tea Party Wave and those voters, the ones with donald trump the exit polls saying people are angry, dissatisfied. When does the anger ee involve and when it do they start seeking answers . I dont know that it does. It has been sdwren rouse to call it anger. It is meanness towards a lot of people in society that dont look like them in many cases. I think thats what were seeing around the country. Again, even if florida, even this big win, donald trump didnt get 50 of the vote. That may just be a random number, but its also significant, and it will help trump because Going Forward a 45 win in a three candidate race can be 100 or close to 100 of the delegates in most of the states, and thats why the stop Trump Movement is in big trouble. It was never very organized. It was rarelily more than a slogan. It is kind of hold your breath and hope by magic he captured enoughs states. I dont see that happening john kasich win is in his home state. He is very popular. He should have won it. If the front runner was anyone else than donald trump rate knew, would we be talking about this one win in ohio and how has john kasich managed to survive because he was in the pround until now. If it was anyone else, he wouldnt have been pressured to get out. He managed to survive because he is one of the few people in the race who understand politics. Deliver your home state. Find a series of people who can deliver a series of states. John kasich got that. Marco rubio didnt. The stop Trump Movement, marco rubio was very damaging because not only could he not come close to delivering his home state, but the votes he got in missouri and North Carolina may have cost ted cruz those states and at the very least ted cruz more delegates in those states. So throwing the delegates to donald trump the life blood of politics is money. When you talk about stopping donald trump there was a lot of money poured in to stop him. If youre a republican money man or money woman this morning waking up, what do you do . Where do you put your mung and do you spend it or say maib the next election . I want to answer two things. First with respect to kaik and your point is that part of the why he has stayed in the race is he has continued to race money and supported by donors. I think the republican donor class is very concerned because many of them actually dont like donald trump and didnt like him prior to his entry into the race they dont trust him no. There sa i belief that a lot of what donald trump is saying is not how he is actually going to govern. Theres that school of thought among some of the leadership as well as the donor class. Many of the donors are uncomfortable with what he is going to do with the rest of the party, in particular the senate race that we talked about because thats crucial because if the democrats can take control of the senate, that gives them power over nominations, especially when you look at the Supreme Court which we expecting a nominee. Lets talk about the democrats. What about Bernie Sanders, his campaign has said theyre looking forward to california, to new york, they see the delegate math. It is difficult for him. Do you see a viable path forward him for to win . Bernie sanders to go not convention with more pledged delegates, he needs to get 58 . He has 455 . That is difficult. You can throw out these big names of states, but remember new jersey, pensvyanni have closed states independence are not at play that makes it must have tougher for him. He has a right to be in this race. He has got a good message. It is resonating a fair amount. He has made promises to people, i will get you to be a delegate in california. It is going to be extremely difficult for him to be the nomination, to the nominee and he has to get away from the story of it was rigged. It was rigged because the voters were given a right to vote in the south that is another issue. We can get into that later. Stay with us. Its just the beginning of the analysis. We will talk about the other story lines coming up in the next half hour. Thank you as you pointed out, in a few hours there is that Supreme Court issue. The president said to announce the replacement of zcalia two names are emerging, first this one man. He would be the first Asian American on the high court. He was confirmed unanimously to the Appeals Court back in 2013. The other name being this man who serves on the same court. He is the chief judge. Bill clinton appointing him back in 1997. He has earned praise from law makers on both sides of the aisles. Republicans say they will not hold confirmation hearsay on anyone that obama nam natures. That is nominates. That is to happen in the rose garden and we will bring it to you live Something Else happening. An unprecedented move in washington this morning. The entire subway system is shut down for emergency inspections. As many as 700,000 commuters are looking for alternate transportation this morning. John terrett is live outside the station in washington. How are residents dealing with the shut down this morning . Reporter good morning. Theyre pretty shocked, i think, because this is the entire dc metro station system. What is that, 90 individual stations, six lines, all closed down for more than 24 hours and theres not a snow flake in the sky. The weather is perfect. What has happened is the new general manager who has been in the job for four months now is very concerned about safety issues. So rather than be caught out, he has closed the entire system down to do safety checks and there has been no trains running on the system since midnight last night. That means that p 00,000 people who ride the metro every day are going to be inconvenienced today. Traffic will be very bad in the city. As it was when the metro system was last closed down during the snow storm back in january. We caught up with some commuters who were, well, what are they going to do. Theyre fairly resigned to it all it seems theres always something going wrong with the metro concerning that they some you down in the middle of the week. People are losing out tomorrow with the shut down. What i dont understand, why dont they have shuttle buses for every train station so that can help customers. Reporter it is very interesting to hear from that commuter who said there always seems to be something wrong with the the metro because that is what people who live in washington dc say. Its a very clean, very big and nice and efficient system here. People quite enjoy actually riding it, i think. There do often seem to be things wrong with it. One of the problems is it is spread across three jurisdictions dc man over here on my right is nodding his head. What are inspectors looking for . Reporter there have been a couple of fires. Theyre not quite sure why they happened and they want to make sure they dont want to happen again. Thats the point. There was a fire, i think, earlier this week on the blue line, but more significantly at a major government station stop, lots of people working for the government get it, there was a fire there last year. Basically, what theyre doing is checking the wiring. Theres something theyre not happy about regarding the insulation on the wiring that links the two tracks together. Thats what theyre looking for. Rather than do it piecemeal, because you
