Reporter clinton argued thats why her party should coalesce about her as quickly as possible. Im just speak out against bigotry and bullying wherever i hear it, and i hear a lot of it from the republican candidates.

Joining us for Election Night tonight are Norah Odonnell, cohost of cbs this morning, and John Dickerson, our cbs news political director and anchor of face the nation opinion john, what are we expecting to the republican side . Reporter, well tonight we have donald trump and the men who would like to stop his steam roller. To do that, they need to win, ted cruz and marco rubio need to win somewhere. If they cant win they need a story, something they can take to their voters and donors and say, please naing there with me. Thats one of the challenges in the larger picture, in talking to republicans, they talk about a trump realignment of the party so every time we get a new result, we get to see how hes remaking the Republican Party in his own image. Pelley and, norah, what do we expect to see for the democrats . Reporter this is also the biggest night for democrats and Hillary Clinton is hoping to cement her lead. But of the 12 states voting tonight, Bernie Sanders is trying to do well in five of them. He told john on face the nation on sunday he hoped to win in minnesota, oklahoma, colorado and do well in massachusetts. If Hillary Clinton can do well in those states, win one of those states, it would suggest that sanders momentum has fizzled. The test for sanders has always been can he expand beyond his base, his liberal base . Can we do well among minority voters . Minority voters are the bullwork of democrats tonight. Pelley john, the republican establishment is apopleptic about trump. Reporter its not just it is the conservatives. Paul ryan had to speak out the second time about this liquid, the second time about donald trump. Once it was about his man ban on muslim immigration. Now hes talking about his lack of a response when asked about the k. K. K. Its an amazing thing. The person who is marching towards the nomination in the Republican Party is at odds with the speaker, hes at odds with nikki haley, the governor of south carolina, who gave the republican response to the president at the state of the union. Hes attacked the three most popular republicans in texas politics. He is headed towards the nomination but he is in conflict with his party. Pelley norah, in a lot of these states, people have been voting for weeks because states allow early voting bhap impact do you think that will have . Reporter so i think this might be one of the most fascinating storylines of the night. As many as 40 of the electorate in these states has already voteed by early and absentee voting. So one of the thing im going to be looking for is how the late deciders breakdeciders break, specifically in the Republican Party, given the droafers over trump the last from rubio and cruz. Do the late deciders break for them . Pelley and Norah Odonnell and John Dickerson are going to be right here with us as cbs news brings you super tuesday updates throughout the evening, andang hourlong primetime time. Norah odonnell, charlie rose, John Dickerson, Anthony Mason, elaine quijano, bob schieffer, and i will have the very latest and Anthony Mason is joining us right now, as a matter of fact. Weve been talking to voters, anthony, all day long as theyve left the polls. What are we findouth . Reporter well, scott, among super tuesday voters in the two parties we found decidedly different attitudes towards governments. First among democrats in our exit poll, fully half, 50 , said they want to continue president obamas policies. And in previous primaries, this headache favorable for Hillary Clinton. But, now lets look at the Republican Voters, because among deep discontent with government. Nine out of 10 Republican Voters said theyre unhappy with the federal government, and that includes 45 who said theyre angry. And that anger among republicans extends to their own party. 57 of g. O. P. Voters said they feel betrayed by republican politicians. And that sentiment could favor an outsider like donald trump, scott. Pelley Anthony Mason with the exit poll information tonight. Anthony, thank you very much. A new York Appeals Court has ruled that a lawsuit can proceed against donald trump and his trump university, a former school for real estate investors. Newnew yorks attorney general accuse of school of defrauding thousands of students. Another electionyear battle centers on the vacancy for the Supreme Court. Senate republicans want to leave the nomination to the next president. Well, today, the current president tried to change their minds. Heres chief Legal Correspondent jan crawford. Republican senate leadershipship was little more than a photoop. Thank you, guys, come on. Thank you. Reporter minority leader harry reid. At least meet with the president s nominee, which should be coming very quickly, but they are adamant and they said, no, were not going to do this at all. Reporter Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell said reid would do the same thing . If the shoe were on the other foot do any of you think the democrat majority in the senate would be confirming a republican president s nomination in the last year of his term . Sk not. Reporter but the president now is narrowing his list of nominees, in search of a solid liberal with a sterling resume who brings diversity, such as federal judge sam Ketanji Brown jackson, former Supreme Court clerk who was unanimously confirmed to the district court, with support from a relative by marriage, House Speaker paul ryan. And federal appears court judge, paul watford. In the clinton and bush administrations who has argued 32 cases in the Supreme Court. Now, another consideration is the election. All things being equal, scott, some democrats believe the president will tap a nominee who can help rally the base, since turnout in november could well be the key to the white house.
