Thats it for this special report from boston tonight. Fair, balanced and unafraid. Well be back with an americas election Headquarters Special tonight 9 00 p. M. Eastern. Dont miss it. Heres greta. This is a fox news alert. Big night of Election Results right here on the record. The polls in kentucky closing just seconds ago and you will have those results as soon as we have them and in oregon, voters have until 11 oclock p. M. Eastern untiltoget their mail ballots. In burning question tonight. Will Bernie Sanders steal another state from secretary Hillary Clinton . On the record has live team coverage. Good evening, greta. And Hillary Clinton continues this race here in kentucky. She has a substantial lead in delegates. She loads by millions of votes over senatorough he contis to be in this race. He continues to be a primary challenger. He promises to stay. In he continues winning
contests. He is hoping to steal one here in kentucky. He won a week ago in West Virginia. And he won the week before in indiana. Both have been campaigning here the last few days, the message from Hillary Clinton has mostly been a focus on the general election and the Presumptive Republican nominee. With the primary challengener Bernie Sanders, she continues to attack sanders. Did so on the auto bailout in a vote he took years ago on that front saying he opposed the auto bailout. Sanders campaign is saying thats not the case. Its a mischaracterization. He actually did support the auto bailout thats an issue in kentucky there is a Large Manufacturing base here. Clinton is also continuing to explain comments she made a couple months ago about the coal industry remember Eastern Kentucky . That is still coal country. She made remarks in West Virginia a couple months ago saying that we were going to put a lot of coal miners and Coal Companies out of business. She has since explained that remark essentially saying what she was trying to say was that the coal industry was declining anyway and that she want to do pump billions of dollars into communities that had been in decline because of the shrinking coal industry but, still, thats an argument that perhaps didnt hold all that much sway in West Virginia last week when senator Bernie Sanders won easily there the dynamic in kentucky is one she hopes to replicate from 2008. She won with 65 of the vote over then senator barack obama. This is a closed primary meaning only registered democrats can vote here in kentucky in the democratic primary. Those democrats have to have registered by new years eve of last year. Even senator Bernie Sanders is acknowledging thats a difficult dynamic for him and that he tends to do better in states where independents are allow to do vote. Thats not the case here some of the other issues going on with the demographics with this state. There are more minorities in kentucky than there were voting in West Virginia. Thats another dynamics that has favored Hillary Clinton thus far in the campaigning season. Neither candidate, greta, has campaigned here today. Senator Bernie Sanders is already looking forward. He is out on the west coast in california. Hillary clinton is not campaigning at all today. She has no public schedule. But, she appears to be on track at least by june 7th to have secured the nomination. At least thats what her supporters are hoping fewer than 150 delegates from securing the nomination. When you factor in the super delegates. Bernie sanders is hoping to continue his winning streak and make the case that if he continues winning these primaries in the interim that he can convince those super delegates who are not bound to anyone to switch to him from Hillary Clinton. We will see the results here in kentucky as the polls polls have now closed. Back to you. Rich, thank you. A reminder to the viewers this is only a democratic primary in kentucky. And donald trump, well, is he doing his homework. Is he working to brush up on Foreign Policy and tomorrow the presumptive g. O. P. Nominee is meeting with former secretary of state henry kissinger. John roberts is live outside new yorks trump tower. John . Greta, good evening to you. Yes, he will be meeting with henry kissinger. We understand it will be midday tomorrow. It will likely be over at secretary kissingers offices. He is 92 years old. He celebrates his 93rd birthday a week from friday. Getting around is a little bit difficult. Donald trump wants to meet him. Donald trump also making news on the Foreign Policy front today in an interview with reuters saying if elected president he is open to talking with north Korean Leader kim jong un about trying to stop north korean program. Paris climate accord which he believes is unfair to the United States to make it more favorable to the u. S. At the same time, donald trump under fire from a super pac priorities u. S. A. Which is supporting hillary
clinton 67milliondollar ad starts tomorrow. Virginia, ned and florida. Taking aim at him for things he said about women over the years. That prompt add sharp response from. Amazing crooked hillary could door a hit ad on me when her husband was the worst abuser of women in u. S. Political history. Asked whether he want to do respond later on today, bill clinton himself said no thank you i dont but added i think people are smart enough to figure this out without my help. A lot going on with donald trump today. Also, greta, we should point out he is only 103 delegates away from clinching the nomination, getting that majority of delegates to 1237 before the convention. If he wins big in oregon today, which is he expected to, he could pick up most, if not all of the 28 delegates. He will still be a little bit shy but well on his way with still six contests to go after this. Greta . John, henry kissinger
hasnt endorsed trump, has he or is that expected . Im sorry, what did you say . You dropped out there. Henry kissinger hasnt endorsed donald trump has he . Is that part of this meeting . No. He hasnt endorsed donald trump nor is he likely to endorse donald trump. The two have talked by phone several times. Its a box check if you will, particularly if you are a republican president ial candidate or even a were democratic republican Vice President ial candidates. He also talks to democrats as well. They dont know how much they will get out of henry kissinger. It is owe owe oblige thing to do. Secretary Hillary Clinton has not been able to close the deal and eliminate senator Bernie Sanders. The on the record
political panel is here. Abc news political director rick klein boston globe victoria. First to you, why hasnt she been able to close this up . She is losing winning. Closed out by winning and still lost the nomination process. This is a real there is a real angst and anxiousness inside the Democratic Party, still. The fact that it is done for all intents and purposes, Bernie Sanders is still able to get big crowds, still able to win in critical states. She is going to have a real problem bringing those supporters on board. Getting them energized about her campaign, most importantly. I think as much attention as we have paid to divisions on the republican side. Divisions on the democratic side that could last through the convention. Its unbelievable to me that she hasnt tied this one up yet and that senator Bernie Sanders who has no chance of getting the demonstration. He needs 87 of the remaining delegates to win but he cant get those. And the longer that it goes on it seems the deeper the hurt feelings are
becoming. I think what we have seen today with the fallout continued fallout from the Nevada Convention over the weekend is not only do you have Bernie Sanders supporters upset at the establishment, you are having establishment starting to get really upset with Bernie Sanders. A lot of top named democrats, David Axelrod on twitter before we came in here among them saying that Bernie Sanders didnt do enough to denounce the violence and the Death Threats and all of the chaos that erupted in nevada over the weekend. So, it almost seems like the divide is getting bigger instead of closing as we get closer and closer to philadelphia. When he finally does bow out. Maybe it will be next january for all i know, when he finally does bow out, can she massage the problems and can she get him on board . Bernie sanders has made his campaign about a revolution, a Political Revolution that is not Hillary Clinton message. Hard to channel the energy that went into Bernie Sanders campaign and bring that on board. I think the unifying thing
for democrats will be running against donald trump. It wont be a Hillary Clinton message. You are seeing tensions rise instead of subside. I actually think though that the bernie supporters, i think donald trump will end up getting some. They are talking about this revolution, outside of the all these great things that they want. They are not going to vote for an insider. I actually spent the last couple days speaking to the bernie or bust crowd did speak to a couple who said yes they would rather vote for donald trump over Hillary Clinton. For them they say at least the folks that i spoke that it came down to policy. They didnt particularly like donald trump but of the two, especially on trade and Foreign Policy and some other things, that they just cant stomach Hillary Clinton on those, you know, very few but big for them differences with Bernie Sanders. Who would have thought that it would turn out that the Democratic Party is the one with the chairs being thrown and at this point and they dont have the nominee. We were focused on the wrong contested convention in philadelphia. Forget cleveland. Get out your gear. You know, this is going to be a rough one. Victoria and rick, thank you both. Thanks, greta. Growing calls for president obama to fire a top aid. Deputy National Security advisor ben rhodes in a New York Times article manipulated the press to get support for the controversial iran nuclear deal. Rhodes boasting how he created echo chamber to make the deal seem better. This deliberate slight of hand flies in the face of president obamas vow to be open and transparent. I will make our government open and transparent. One of the things i want to do is open things up. I want transparency. I want accountability. The more transparency we can bring to washington, the less idea it will be run by lobbyists and special interest. Transparency and rule of law will be the touch stones of this presidency. This is the most transparent are administration in history and can i document how that is the case. John barrasso is here to
go on the record. First of all the president just promised transparency. How transparent was this iran deal . Not at all. And thats the big problem when you see his deputy National Security advisor one manipulating the process and then, two, bragging about it shows terrible judgment. This is part of this arrogant behavior by this white house. Remember, Jonathan Gruber said they got the healthcare law passed because of the stupidity of the American People. And now he is saying its the dumb press this is the arrogance of this administration they are afraid to tell the American People the truth. My concern is the safety of the American Public which is what the iran deal is all about. I have your letter here you signed it with two other u. S. Senators calling for him to fire rhodes. Mark kirk from illinois and joran cornyn from texas. Another u. S. Senator. How do you know this isnt just like i have been around washington a long enough. A lot of staffers think they are a lot more important than they are, they sometimes begin to think theyre the senator or the
president. How do you think this isnt some goofy staff running his mouth to the New York Times magazine . The president as president really was the least prepared in modern time to be the president in terms of Foreign Policy issues has chosen to have advice from people who are least prepared to brief him. Thats what we have here. The president said with regard to the iran deal, its this or war. I mean, this is pure fiction. And i think we are much more likely to be in war with iran. Iran with a Nuclear Weapon they will be a lot stronger 15 years from now. They will have a Nuclear Weapon. There will be no time for others to prepare. We are as a nation more felony war bad deal based on fiction. Will the president fire rhodes. I dont think he will. The president again is using poor judgment to take advice from somebody who doesnt have the background in Foreign Policy to be able to advise him at a time when the world is very dangerous. We now know that iran is going to get 100 billion. I think they got most of
that now. Thats done and they can spread it around the middle east and help hezbollah and everybody else. It, i voted against it many were on board because the president said they had to its this or war. Where do we end up . We end up with the president continuing to take bad advice. Do you know where we end up . Jimmy carter said it best he cant think of anywhere in the world where the United States is in a better relationship with the foreign country than we were when barack obama came in to power. Barack obama has been a failure in the area of Foreign Policy. We have seen it with the reset of russia. We have seen it in syria where assad is stronger now than ever in spite of the red line we see it in iran with a terrible deal that i think puts us more at risk and our closest ally in the region israel, is more at risk because of the actions of president obama. Senator, thank you very much for joining us. Thanks for having me. This is a fox news alert. Another bloody day in iraq. Another wave of bombings killing 69 people.

and the votes are being tallied. As soon as we have a winner in the kentucky president ial primary, you will hear it first. Voters in oregon, they still have a few hours cast their votes. Texas governor greg abbot saying no to president obama. Now, the Texas Governor, despite president obamas request says he will not lift texas sanctions against iran. The lifting of those texas sanctions would send billions of dollars into the hands of iran. Governor abbot even going one step further saying he will tighten and strengthen the texas sanctions. Texas governor author of the brand new book broken but unvowed. Good evening, sir. You have a letter dated april 8th from the president of the United States saying essentially and i think its a form letter. I think a couple governors got the same letter but it has your name on it. It says he wants you to eliminate the sanctions the state of texas has to iran and you say, what . We say no way. We believe that the iran deal is bad for america. Its bad for israel. Its the way the l
