Florida. The Warren CountySheriffs Office says no charges will be filed. Tonight at six. Showdown in ohio. Trump versus kasich. After a strong third place showing in michigan. Kasich has declared his home state a mustwin in his president ial campaign. But momentum is on trumps side. The map shows his strong finishes across the country. Cruz is second. Kasich hasnt won any states. Making ohio even more important to his campaign. Two new polls show where the race stands in ohio. A cnn. Orc poll shows trump leading kasich 41 percent to 35 percent. Ted cruz is third at 15 percent. And. Marco rubio has seven percent. A Quinnipiac University poll shows a much tighter race. It has trump leading kasich by 38 percent to 32 percent. Within the margin of error. Cruz has 16 percent. Marco rubio gets nine percent. In most of the primaries so days before the primary how theyll vote have been a deciding factor. So with the ohio primary now less than a week away. We sent nine on your sides tom mckee to take the public pulse. He joins us live from the Hamilton County board of elections. Tom. No republican has ever won the white house without winning ohio. So, both donald trump and john kasich are making a big push here to win voters and make sure they cast ballots on tuesday. Theyve created a lot of interest in the election especially up the road in Camp Washington. The talk was politics wednesday at Camp Washington chili. There were as many opinions served up as cheese coneys and double deckers. Deckers. I think both parties are trying to wake each other up and so its getting pretty crazy. Crazy. Most talk centered on donald trump, who won three primaries tuesday over ted cruz, john kasich and marco rubio. Rubio. Theres only one person who did well tonite donald trump. Trump. Hardcharging personality have divided people. People. Personally, i kind of want to see him win out of curiosity. It could be very good or very bad. Bad. I think hes a ticking time bomb, essentially. He looks like he could explode and hes shown throughout this whole thing that he isnt reliable in his emotions. Emotions. John kasich did well in michigan behind trump and a point behind cruz. Now, its on to ohio, must win to keep his campaign alive. Alive. Were all familiar with march madness and now the Home Court Advantage is coming north and next week we are going to win the state of ohio. Ohio. I think if anyone can beat donald trump in this state, its john kasich. Kasich. Thats the take of Hamilton County republican chair and kasich supporter alex triantafilou. Triantafilou. Hes got to keep talking about his story and being the adult in thke room and i think ohioans are gong to appreciate that. That. Back at Camp Washington chili, some wonder if trump and cruz, plus democrats Hillary Clinton i feel like were in a nightmare. Any minute now, were going to wake up and have a really good president ial candidate who kind of scoots in, but i dont think thats going to happen. I talked by phone with trumps Hamilton County organizer, linda caudill, to try and get an interview for this story. She declined, saying, the campaign doesnt want us talking to the media. The media hasnt been favorable to trump. Tom mckee, nine on your side, live downtown. Both of those polls we mentioned earlier give Hillary Clinton strong leads over Bernie Sanders in ohio. Ohio. The quinnipiac poll has clinton leading sanders by a nine point margin. The cnn poll gives her a two to one margin. And ohio wont be the only key state holding a primary next tuesday. People in florida. Illinois. Mississouri and North Carolina will also be going to the polls. Voters in butler county. And other areas where Speaker John Boehner used to be their congressman.
