But genuinely likes, that is rare. Reporter garland seemed a long shot, the oldest nominee in modern history, hes been on the short list for previous vacancies and passed over. Moment. This is the greatest honor of my life other than my wife agreeing to marry me 28 years ago. Reporter his wife and one of his daughters were among more than 100 supporters in the rose garden. I only wish my father were here to see this today. I also wish that we hadnt taught my older daughter to be so adventurous that she would be hiking in the mountains out of cell service range. [laughter] when the president called. Reporter garland joined the federal Appeals Court in 1997. Hes considered a moderate liberal who builds consensus. Before becoming a judge, he spent much of his life in public service. His tenure at the justice he supervised the prosecution of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing. We pro would bring them to justice and that we would do it in a way that honored the constitution. Reporter he says thats at the core of his beliefs. Fidelity to the constitution and the law has been the cornerstone of my professional life. If the senate sees fit to confirm me to the position for which i have been nominated today, i promise to continue on that course. Reporter now garland obviously does not bring diversity to the court. He would be yet another justice who went to law school at harvard or yale. With a rough senate fight ahead, the president said he was focused on qualifications. Pelley jan crawford for us at the court this evening. Jan, thank you. As we said, that fight appears to be over before it began. Heres Margaret Brennan. The senate to give him a fair hearing and then an upordown vote. If you dont, it will not only be an abdication of the senates constitutional duty, it will indicate a process for nominating and confirming judges that is beyond repair. Lets let the American People decide. Reporter within minutes republican Majority Leader Mitch Mcconnell said no, congress will wait until a newly elected president picks a Supreme Court justice. Our view is this give the people a voice in filling this vacancy. Reporter mcconnell pointed to thensenator joe bidens recommendation to president bush back in 1992. Once the political season is under way, and it is, action on a Supreme Court nomination must be put off until after the Election Campaign is over. Reporter but the white house thinks the American Public is on its side and hopes garlands sterling legal credentials and moderate political record will persuade president obama singled out senator orrin hatch, one of seven sitting republicans, who backed garlands 1997 nomination to the d. C. Circuit. I believe mr. Garland is a fine nominee. I know him personally. I know of his integrity. I know of his legal ability. I know of his honesty. I know of his acumen, and he belongs on the court. Reporter hatch said today that times have changed. There is a world of a difference between being on any Circuit Court of appeals and being a nominee for the Supreme Court of the United States when you have ultimate decisionmaking power. Reporter and a handful of Senate Republicans have agreed to meet with garland, and Senate JudiciaryCommittee ChairmanChuck Grassley said hell consider it. Scott, this is a political gamble. Republicans want to appear strong but not obstructionist, which could ultimately backfire to the benefit of democrats. Pelley Margaret Brennan at the white house tonight. Margaret, thank you. Well, the president ial election battle, and last night republican frontrunner donald trump won at least three more contests. The states in orange are trumps wins to date. Blue are ted cruz. Twoterm Governor John Kasich won his first and only primary last night, his home state ohio. But apparently the showme state, missouri, didnt see enough. Last night they cast 1. 5 million votes, and both trump and cruz and clinton and sanders are separated by less than 2,000 votes each, too close for an official result yet. Even so, cbs news estimates that trump now has more than half the delegates he needs for the nomination. Heres major garrett. This was an amazing evening. The great state of ohio, i love you. Reporter the swing states split decision whittled the field to throw candidates. We are on the right side this reporter after losing in his home state, marco rubio dropped out. Trump is on pace the win, but ted cruz and john kasich said theyll fight for delegates until the end. Only two campaigns have a plausible path to the nomination, ours and donald trumps. Nobody else has any mathematical possibility whatsoever. It is unlikely that anybody is going to achieve enough tell gaza city to avoid a convention. Reporter the g. O. P. Frontrunner mentioned this menacing prediction if he contested convex. I dont think you can say we get it automatically. I think youd have riots. Reporter this morning john boehner floated another idea, draft current speaker paul ryan. His spokeswoman shot that down quickly saying, he will not accept a nomination. And Republican NationalCommittee ChairmanReince Preibus told us there wont be a need for a new candidate. There isnt going to be some sort of game played where with a majority of the delegates and somehow or another that person is not the nominee. I dont see that happening. Reporter but delegates are only bound to their candidates for the first ballot, and preibus acknowledged the party can rewrite the Convention Rules at its discretion. I would imagine the nomination rules would have to be looked at because obviously youd have second and third ballottype rules that you wouldnt have contemplated in the last convention. Reporter the now threeman race was headed for a prime time debate monday, but trump and kasich pulled out, forcing its cancellation. Scott, that debate was to occur the night before a contest in utah and arizona with 98 pelley major garrett, thanks. You probably remember the tense moment on saturday when man rushed donald trump. Well, today that man, thomas dimassimo, was charged with a federal crime entering a secret service restricted area. Now to the democrats. Hillary clinton won at least she now has nearly twothirds of the delegates that she needs for the nomination. Heres nancy cordes. Thank you, florida. Thank you, north carolina. Thank you, ohio. Reporter clinton had more thanking to do than her own campaign had expected. She swept four states by as much as 31 points, a feat sanders did not acknowledge at his rally in phoenix. Next week arizona has a very important election. We will win. Reporter in a statement, the vermont senator insisted he is still on path to win the nomination and that the primary calendar favors us in the weeks and months to come. But thats also what he said before last nations blowout. Crowd Hillary Hillary reporter in a memo today, the Clinton Campaign laid out the odds against sanders. Nearly half of the remaining states, california, new york and pennsylvania. Senator sanders would have to win them by 20 points and rack up a string of victories just to pull even. In short, they argued, clintons delegate lead is now nearly insurmountable. We are moving closer to securing the Democratic Party nomination and winning this election in november. [cheering and applause] reporter the clinton camp knows there is a fine line between confidence and arrogance. They say they will not be calling on sanders to drop out, that its entirely his decision because, scott, when she faced a summer choice back in 2008, clinton stayed in all the way until the end. Pelley nancy cordes, thanks. Now, with confidence and not a hint of arrogance, we will turn to john dickerson, our cbs news political director and the anchor of face the nation. John, trump lost a big one in ohio last night. How damaging was that . Reporter well, not winning those 66 delegates means trump before last night he had won 44 of the delegates. Now he needs to win 52 of the remaining delegates up for grabs, but rules in later contests give win ears greater share of the delegates. And that will help him. And there was evidence last night, particularly in florida, where he got 48 of the vote, that his results improve as the field shrinks. So he has shown the capacity to do better in the future. Pelley now, if republicans wanted to deny trump the nomination, is there a way they could do that in the coming contests . They have to win enough delegates to deny him the majority of delegates, and that means beating him outright in the states where there are winnertakeall, where he might be weak, states like montana, nebraska and south dakota. Then in states where hes strong that distribute delegates from portion natalie, his proponents have to come in a close second to that to shrink his delegate surprise, but thats hard to do because kasich and cruz keep splitting the nontrump vote. Is supposed to be the face of the new republican party, hispanic and young. What happened . He was selling the wrong product, that youth, that outreach expansion to new voters and that optimism, it was a year when voters wanted a champion for their anger, and also his greatest legislative achievement, pushing a comprehensive Immigration Reform bill, thats part of what had stirred up that voter anger in the first place. Pelley john dickerson, well be watching you sunday on face the nation. John, thanks.

Heres ben tracy. Reporter 28yearold rocky allen was a surgical technologist at the Swedish Medical Center outside of denver. He was arrested last month on federal charges of stealing and tampering with syringes of fentanyl, a surgical painkiller and opiate considered more powerful than morphine. Court documents say allen removed the syringes and replaced them with similar ones containing an undisclosed substance.

Attorneys say at least two people have tested positive for Holland Hoskins represents some of the patients.
