WCAU NBC10 News Today 11am April 27, 2016

Hinting at whats in his Foreign Policy address today. We need new thinking. We need a lot better thinking because this is ridiculous, whats going on for so many years is ridiculous. Aides s say hell use a tell prompter, but totally rewrote the speech himself. Im so honored. Maryland, connecticut, rhode island, and the big prize, pennsylvania, all went for donald trump. Last night was Donald Trumps night, and today is indianas day. Where john kasich has agreed to back off, allowing ted cruz to compete oneonone. Were barnstorming the state, traveling across the state, and seeing tremendous support from the people on the ground. Clinton won four of the five primaries. She lost rhode island to Bernie Sanders. Lets go forward, lets win the nomination, and in july, lets return as a unified party. We have now won 16 primaries and caucuses all over this country. Clintons reaching out to sanders supporters, talking unity. She can now lose every single remaining primary, including california, and still win the nomination. Now, that assumes she would win some delegates in states she may lose, both clinton and donald trump now need less than 300 delegates to win the nomination. Tracie potts, nbc news, washington. And meanwhile, senator ted cruz is not showing any signs of giving up. Hes in indianapolis today. Cruz told reporters he will make a major announcement there at a rally today at 4 00 p. M. And last nights primary results signal defeat for longtime philadelphia congressman chaka fattah. This loss comes as jury selection is starting next week in his federal corruption trial. He greeted somber supporters in east falls. He talked about his record of delivering for the district, and seemed to acknowledge the indictment was too much to overcome in the election. Yes, there were forced against us tonight. A very powerful and influential people. And they were on the other side. It is also clear that the majority will have its way, and they will decide that someone else should take on the responsibility. Heres the man who defeated him. Dwight evans walked into his Election Party from warm greetings from family, friends, and supporters. He won this congressional race with 44 of the vote. First y want to thank the democrats voters of the second congressional district. I am humbled by the trust that they have provided to me. Also in his remarks, evans thanked fattah for serving the district for two dekd aicades. And Katie Mcginty said shes ready to get to work after winning the democratic nomination for senate in pennsylvania. She beat out joe sestak who nearly won the Senate Office six years ago. She spoke about her plans to win the race in november. I think its really going to be about just reaching out to voters and hearing the challenges that people are facing. Mcginty will face pat toomey in november. And toomey ran unopposed in the republican primary this time around. He was elected in 2010 midterms and is seeking a second term in washington. He visited our studios this morning and said he has stark differences with mcginty. Shes extremely partisan, extremely liberal. Shes a big supporter of obamacare and wants to take it further. I disagree. I think individuals should be in control of their health care, not the government. Shes a big supporter of the iran nuclear deal, which i think is a disaster. You can see the full interview as well as an interview with Katie Mcginty this sunday at 11 30 here on nbc10. And Montgomery County submissioner josh shapiro won the democratic nomination in the race for Pennsylvania Attorney general. So many people told us along the way that a pragmatic progressive reformer couldnt win a statewide race. Well friends, we showed them that we could do it the Montgomery County way. Thank you all very, very much. Shapiro defeated two democratic challengers, Allegheny County District Attorney steven zapalla, and john morganelli. And in november, shapiro will face republican state senator john rafferty. Both will be vying to succeed Kathleen Kane who is not running for a second term while she faces trial over allegations that she leaked grand jury information.

Next month, certain animals can qualify for free exams. Here with us, a veterinary optimist along with officer gerard of the low er mayfield township office. Thank you all for being here. Doctor, let me start with you. I had a dog for ten years. Unless he runs into the wall, i wouldnt know to take him in. Its usually true. Most dogs vision are spot on. They dont need it for reading and driving. The biggest thing we really worry about with our pet patients is are they uncomfortable . If you notice redness, squinting, tearing of the eyes. Haziness or discoloration or sometimes especially for these guys, subtle vision things youll notice first. They may not be able to see peripheraly over here, they can catch a red ball but not a green ball. The officer is over there working and trying to keep trying. Keep reconcontrolled there. You heard about this program. And you took recon in and got checked, right . Absolutely. Tell me how that worked out. Well, being a working dog, he goes to a lot of crazy places, inside vehicles, inside abandoned houses, in the woods. My dog specifically doesnt know how to do anything slow or safe. And he has the opportunity to get something in his eye. So take him to the vet, and she checks him. So far so good. Has he needed hes good, not for her eyes. Hes got gold teeth and everything, but his eyes are good. Theyre hejt healthy. What should pet owners look out for . What should they know when it comes to pets eyes. The scary thing is many can go bad fast. Some people can leave for work and their dog is fine and dm home and their whole eyeball is red and inflamed and angry. Especially for eye things, maybe not so much for other medical conditions, but prompt evaluation by their family veterinarian would help. All right, thank you very much. Appreciate you guys coming in. Recon going to be okay . Hes good. If youre interested in registering for the free eye exams theyre offering next month, you can go to nbc10. Com or check out the app. Thank you very much. You okay over there . Im good. Looks like recon is okay. Hes good. A big lap dog. Thank you very much. Thank you.
