Byn woodruff this is a rare week without any primary voting, anywhere, in the 2016 president ial race, but the campaigning grinds on. And as the days developments show, the talk is getting testier, especially over the allimportant delegate numbers game. John yang has our report. Reporter for the two democratic contenders and the three republicans, the campaign is now dominated by delegate wars. G. O. P. Frontrunner donald trump leads by about 200 delegates. But he phoned into fox news this morning to complain he should be getting even more. For example, i won South Carolina by a landslide, ana massive landslide. And now theyre trying to pick off those delegates one by one. Thats not the way democracy is supposed to work. N what kind of a system is this . Now, im an outsider, and i came into the system, and im winning the votes, by millions of votes. But the system is rigged. Its crooked. Reporter adding to trumps frustration, rival ted cruzs sweep of colorados 34 delegates over the weekend. S today, the texas senator turnedd to california.

In binghamton, new york today, he went after Hillary Clinton on oil and gas drilling. On this issue of fracking, secretary clinton and i havean some very strong differences of opinion. St in my view, if we are serious combating climate change, we need to put an end to fracking, not only in new york andne vermont, but all over this country. Reporter people in the sanders crowd booed the mention of clintons name. She took her own shots, at a stop in queens. N ive noticed that under the bright spotlight and scrutiny of new york, senator sanders has had trouble answering questions. Hes had trouble answering questions about his core issue, namely, dealing with the banks. Hes had trouble answering Foreign Policy questions. Reporter clinton still enjoys a wide lead in delegates, but sanders insists he can narrow the gap. For the pbs newshour, im johnr, yang. Woodruff in the days other news, british Prime MinisterDavid Cameron rejected criticism of his familys finances and offshore holdings. Hes come under fire after the Panama Papers leak detailed his late fathers investments. But in parliament today, cameron said his fathers Investment Fund was designed to help investors, not to dodge taxes. We should differentiate between schemes designed to artificially reduce tax and those that are encouraging investment. Mr. Speaker, this is a government and this should be a country that believes in aspiration and Wealth Creation, so we should, we should defend the right of every british citizen to make money lawfully. Aspiration and Wealth Creation are not somehow dirty words. Woodruff cameron initially refused to say if he had a stake in his fathers business, but he now acknowledges selling his shares before his election in 2010. In syria, a surge in fightingin now threatens to derail a month old ceasefire. Its focused around aleppo, the countrys largest city, half of it is held by rebels. Syrian army video showed artillery firing on rebel positions on sunday. Theres also word that government reinforcements are moving in to counter a buildup of islamist militants linked to alqaeda. A fragile truce also hung in the balance in yemen today, amid sporadic violations. The ceasefire took hold last night between shiite rebels and a Saudiled Coalition that backs the government. The yearlong conflict has killed more than 9,000 people, and forced nearly 2. 5 million to flee. Investigators in Southern India are hunting suspects after an illegal fireworks display setsp off a deadly fire. At least 110 people died and another 380 were hurt in sundays blaze at a hindu temple.

S. Secretary of state to visit hiroshima, japan, where the u. S. Dropped an atomic bomb in 1945. Kerry toured the Hiroshima Peace Museum and memorial as he attended a group of seven conference. He spoke to reporters afterward. It is a gutwrenching display. It tugs at all of your sensibilities as a human being. It reminds everybody of the extraordinary complexity of choices in war, and of what war does to people to communities, to countries, to the world. Woodruff kerry did not say whether president obama will visit hiroshima when he travels to japan in late may. A sign today that the flow of migrants from turkey into greece is finally slowing. Greek Officials Say only 18 people landed on outlying islands in the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, thousands remain camped near the border with macedonia.

The Dow Jones Industrial average lost 20 points to close at 17,556. The nasdaq fell 17 points, and the s p 500 slipped five. Still to come on the newshour a closer look at the candidates scramble for votes in new york. How corruption hurts a countrys citizens. We go inside kenya. The paper trail that connects syrias president to torture, and much more. Woodruff with eight days to go until voterich new york weighs in on the highstakes contests for the republican and democratic nominations for president , candidates stepped up their criticisms of each other and made their best cases for more delegates today. The Perfect Moment to turn to politics monday with tamara keith of npr, and amy walter of the cook political report. And we welcome both of you. So as we said, no voting this week, but delegate selection goes on and were hearing a lot of complaining, amy, from donald trump. We just heard him say the process is crooked. What is ted cruz doing donaldg trump isnt . There is a process that involves rules and donald trump seems to have forgotten the rules were setth a long time ag. Two ways to win the nomination as a republican. Li you either come into the convention with 1237 delegates where trump is ahead and could conceivably, by june. Then there is winning the convention at the floor, winning by what were calling a contested convention. Thats where ted cruz is doing better. What ted cruz is doing is he understands the rules and nuances of how the game is played and that is, when you win a state, you win more than just the votes, you win actual human beings, del vote on the floor. They are bound to voting for who won the state on the first round. But once you get into the secondnd and third rounds of voting, most are free agents. Ted cruz is making sure many of his supporters are getting picked at places like colorado and in some other states, north dakota, et cetera, evennin South Carolina to make sure that when we get to the second and third ballot, they will vote for ted cruz and not donald trump. Tr woodruff tamara, if its a process thats been written about and in the books for some time, why has it taken so longi for donald trump to focus on it . Because he was focused on winning. laughter woodruff but this is all about winning. Yes, this is a different kind of winning and this is sort of the more complicated, procedural ruletype winning. You know, at this convention in colorado, donald trump showed up with a gloss glossy flyer that d heres my slate of delegates, vote for them. It include add numberf peoplee that were not on the ballot for people to vote. Woodruff ooh. My colleagues showed me a copy of his slate that he had taken notes on, and threequarters of the people on there, you couldnt vote for them in the way that trumps people said to vote for them. Woodruff amy, is it too late for trump to catch up . He hired a veteran political operative who said, oh, yes, well catch up. Can they catch up . They may be able to, but its really a question about you know, theyve already lost in so many of these places and its hard to catch up. What were hearing in state afterni state is that the Cruz Campaign has been there for months, they have been doing the groundwork, and they have the people there who are able to go and get on these ballots or make sure that they pick the right people to get on these ballots. One thing i want to mention is heres the difficult part about this as were predicting and projecting whats going to happen. 2500 people or so are delegates, theyre all individual human beings that all will feel incredible pressure. Re there are rules they have to follow, but once the voting opens and theyre n no longer bound by the rules, theyre going to get precious from the carnghts their families, their colleagues, and these people will have to go home after this convention and explain their vote to their friends and family and that will be something none of us can predict. Woodruff clearly, tam remarks sounds like donald trump east best hope is to get to 1237 before they go to cleveland. Absolutely. By far, if he can have this done in one ballot, that is much better solution. Woodruff and thats mathematically possible. E. It is mathematically possible. By ourcopo calculation at this point, he would need to get about 58 of the remaining, unbound there are bound and unbound delegates, so somewhere between 58 and 70 of the remaining delegates that he needs to get. Its possible. There are a bunch of winnertakeall contests. But heres an indication of the challenge he faces in new york, his children cannot vote for him because they missed the deadline to register as reps to vote. To woodruff which was last fall, wasnt it . More like three weeks ago. Woodruff okay. So there are all kinds of small details, and trump has been working on the bigger stuff, on the big message, on getting this title wave of support, and that is different from what happens at a convention, which is why donald trump really wants to win before a convention. Nt woodruff co so, amy, quickly on this, when he says its crooked and his delegate hunteru says theyre using gues gist g e tactics you cant woo a delegate or give them cash, there are bribery stamps, and some are going, well, i dobgu know, if theyre not an elected officiala is it a bribe to give them a tripe on a nice airplane with the name trump on the side. Andnr goldplated seat belts . Woodruff lets move on. Tam remarks does the words of war between Hillary Clinton andd Bernie Sanders seems to have cooled down but theyre still taking shots. I dont know if it cooled down. Woodruff maybe itle hasnt. Yeah. Woodruff shes ahead inuf the polls in new york, but he said ive won the last umpteen contests. And heen has won the last umpteen contests and he has momentum. One interesting thing about the momentum is, in wyoming, which held its caucuses over the weekend, he won and fairly significantly but, in the end, the delegates were a tie. They both got seven delegates, seven pledged delegates, which means that he didnt eat into her delegate leadnr any at a. And he still needs to win about 57. 5 of the remaining delegates. Totally possible. Not easy. S woodruff and quickly, amy, delegates numbers, very different from the republicans where youve got the socalled superdelegates and she, Hillary Clinton is doing d way ahead with the super delegates but also significantly ahead with delegates, even further ahead today than barack obama was ahead of her at this pointpoint in 2008. Her argument is i want to switch now, this race is,0nd8 . C mathematically over, i want to get to the general election, but primary votessers arent there yet and want to see this continue. She has to do both, show graciousness as the frontrunner and likely nominee while also being a general election candidate. Woodruff and is running ads on donald trump at the samee time shes having to beat off the criticisms from sanders. Yeah, and what she said today is she can walk and comiew gumw at the same time. She can fight Bernie Sanders and donald trump at the same time. Im sanders is out with an ad todayi about fracking wig will be more ofco an issue in pennsylvania. Hes getting that out there, in hopes of it coming up at the debate. Woodruff there is so much. With we love having both of you. Tamera keith, amy walter. R. Thank you both. Youre welcome, judy. Woodruff now, we continue our series inside kenya. The World Bank Says kenya is growing faster than any other subsaharan african country. But there is one major impediment to the countrys continued growth. Th tonight, in partnership with the Pulitzer Center on crisis reporting, special correspondent Nick Schifrin and producer zach fannin examine the world of kenyan corruption. Reporter in kenya, even the worlds fastest men cant outrun corruption. The rift valley is known as the valley of champions. The best marathon runners are born here, and train here. Hilary kiplimo runs three times a day. He is tireless, and fast. He averages about 4. 5 minutes ai mile. Its tough to keep up. Woah. Hes good. And thats slow for him. After years of training, he finally broke through. He finished third in last years nairobi marathon. D this is for position. Reporter so it says number 3. R because you came in third. Yes. Reporter he and his wife thought hed finally fulfilled his dream of running his way out of poverty. But his dreams been denied. You got your medal, you got this number 3, you got the jersey and you got thisbut you never got a cent. Th i never got a cent. Reporter on the results website, his name was replaced. And his 3,500 winningsin vanished. So wheres the money going . I think those people, they kept the money. I reporter athletics kenya, the race organizers. Te yeah. Reporter last november dozens of runners protested at athletics kenya. The group has exclusive oversight of all kenyan athletes. Kenyans hold records in nearly every distance. They say as they run faster, athletics kenya is stealingi more. Athletics kenya did not respond to a halfdozen emails from pbs newshour. Hilary suspects theres only ony way to get their attention. He when you go to explain, they ask you for something. Reporter theyre asking you to give them some money . Tee yeah. Reporter the problem extends far beyond athletics. Theres a saying here kenya is the homeland of the bribe. And in the mostly muslim neighborhood of eastleigh, nairobi, the victims of those bribes point their finger at one perpetrator. If you look at the police who are meant to protect them, they just arrest them to extort cash. Reporter Abdullahi Mohamed and most of this community is ethnic somali. He says police come here not toc patrol, but to get rich. You see cars from all police stations in nairobi converging here. Reporter they refer to this neighborhood as what . Te an a. T. M. Machine. Reporter an a. T. M. Machine. Because they take so much moneym they take so much money. Reporter Police Officers, when promised anonymity, admit theyre more focused on keeping the cash than keeping the peace. How were Police Officers extorting people in eastleigh . The little amount that you are paid as salary can not getan up for you and your family. So, if somebody gives you some amount, somewhere, you have to take the money and then yound forget about work. Reporter is this corruption being practiced by so many Police Officers in so many different areas . O of course, of course. Its right from the junior officer to the highermost. Reporter and the problem is that when the police are for sale, criminals buy their freedom. A criminal can come, do anything that they want, they go free. W youll pay and you go free. Reporter and while police let criminals free, they arrest anticorruption campaigners like 32yearold boniface mwangi. In a country where activist is a dirty word, mwangi is a fearless, relentless firebrand. The corruption in this country starts from the presidency to the judiciary to the legislature. So all arms of the government are rotten. T we are here today because the people we elected are thieves. crowd cheers reporter he is a former journalist whose political activism is often a performance. He covered pigs with fake blood outside parliament. Pigs are selfish. And members of parliament are like pigs. F if you steal a lot of money, you go into politics and buy yourself immunity. You can get away with anything in this country, provided you have the money to buy your way off. He might be considered over the top, except what hes fightinga is so outrageous. Last year, school kids protested when a landowner confiscated their playground, to build a parking lot. They tear gassed innocent kids who only wanted to access their playground. Other countries have mafia. In kenya the mafia have a country. Reporter the wealth gap here makes the corruption more egregious. R c according to one study, kenyans pay on average 16 bribes ever
