Its something we are seeing from both sides. Well get a view of the race from two candidates who recently suspended their white house bids. Michelle but first, no complaints about this count. The crab count in the chesapeake. What is bein fthe nra and its Campaign Cash are what stands between us and gun reform. Every time i think about those kids. It gets me mad Chris Van Hollen met with nra lobbyists to craft a loophole that would let the nra skirt a new Campaign Finance law and block gun control. But democrat Donna Edwards said no to the nra loophole and stood up to the gun lobby. And she would ban assault weapons. Democrat Donna Edwards, marylands next senator. Working for us pac is responsible for the content of this advertising. But sierra club chooses jamie raskin for congress they all talk about climate change. Because only raskin wrote laws to reduce our Carbon Footprint and is leading the fight against fracking in maryland. Raskin im jamie raskin, and i approve this message. Jonathan the winter dredging of the chez peek bay came up with estimate there are more than 550 million crabs in the bay. That would be the fourth most and the second Straight Year of improvement. Hopefully that is good news for your crabfest. Joining us via skype is ch what was your reaction when you saw the report . Its good for the crab industry. Very good for the crab industry and good news for the crab population as well. Having two years back to back to see the population expand shows us one that the Management Program that maryland and virginia have been partnering on the last eight years now is working. The other things were doing is helping as well. Jonathan talk about the female crab population in particular because that needs to stay strong in order to keep the population strong. What do we find out of this report . The female, adult female population almost doubled as a result of this survey, which is really good news. That is right. We manage our blew crab population in Chesapeake Bay based on the number of adult females we have. We are almost at the target level of 215 million adult females. We are below that at 194. Having the nu that the population is doing better. Management controls work better. Jonathan this is the question now crabbers are on the edge of their seat more. Is this a fantastic year this year . Its hope that having more crab out there in the population will end up in more crabs in crabbers crab pots as well. We appreciate you taking the time for us today. Thank you for having me. Michelle coming up next at abc7 news at 4 00 jonathan complaints on the campaign trail. Supports of Bernie Sanders and donald trump say the deck of delegates is stacked against them. A couple recently depart candidates explain why it may be a valid complaint. Today is the last day of taping in d. C. For jeopardy. Coming up, feigned out how the local contestant is doing and how he plans to spend money if he wins. Michelle on your Side Help Center phone lines open up for you to ask a realtor. We are helping you get ready for house hunting season. 7032369220. That is the number. Well be right back. The colorado thing was unfair. I know the rules very well. I know its stacked against me by the establishment. Jonathan in the world of politics its getting interesting. Loud complaints from the campaign trail that the process for the candidates is so hard to navigate that anyone challenging the system is at a major disadvantage. The most noise made from donald trump. But he is not alone and he has a legitimate beef. Scott thuman is joining us. Donald trump and Bernie Sanders are both making points. People are saying they have argument. Scott we talk to former president ial candidates to talk about that. Mike huckabee and Martin Omalley told me they know it can be a corrupt, confusing system. But its also not a shock or a mystery. Meaning its how you approach it and how you handle it that determines if you are campaigning say in january or if you make it to november. Jonathan got it. Scott while they hopedded to be sharing a stage in november as nominees, Mike Huckabee and Martin Omalley were instead promoting a tv show stead in the american revolution. These days its the ballots instead of bullets. The parallels are hard to ignore. Its evident we are divided. Divided by the democrats and the republicans but within our own parties there are great division. Scott and growing for example with donald trump newest claims that the confusing mess of caucuses, convention and primaries hurt the less experienced candidate. He is a Republican National committee, they should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this kind of crab to happen. Scott is this election system rigged . There are always lumps in the pancakes. We all go into this knowing what the rules are. If we were winning wed probably say its great. The rules are never written in a way to make it easier for challengers. Scott particularly the duo says the a come with lining up superdelegates. It appears from a republican perspective that the democrats cooked it up for hillary even though bernie continues to win hearts and minds. She lost seven of the eight contests. That is the cruel irony, isnt it . If we had a more open debate process who is to say how this race highlight have unfolded. I watched governor huckabee go out in primetime. We remain silent all through the long summer. Scott you think you had a fair shot on the nominee . On the issue of the debates, i do. I believe the republican debates were actually a lot hells bells they had them. The bipartisan hope is not a new electoral system. That is unlikely and unrealistic but maybe forthright and fair one in the future. Jonathan all right. Live look at Leisure World in Silver Spring where former president bill clinton is campaigning for hillary. He is addressing there. Michelle getting ice cream today in between the Campaign Stops was kasich. Nice day out there. Doug look how smooth the river is. The winds are light. Beautiful day. Cool side.

Knife fight inside a Grocery Store that is causing a chaotic scene today. 11 00 th customers heard shouting inside the safeway at the Germantown Center complex. They found blood on the Grocery Store floor but no victims. Officers closed three aisles and the produce department for a few hours based on the surveillance video. Michelle ung touched since before hurricane katrina. It was jazz land. Theme park in new orleans that they are looking to start new. What does the future hold for the land that looks like straight out of a horror movie . That is coming up. Jonathan freedom at last. This is inky. Escaped the new zealand aquarium. How did he do it . Where is he now . We look Delores Kelley although we were all one maryland, our schools werent treated the same way. Narrator with neighborhoods getting r schools, something had to be done for our children. Kelley it didnt matter where chris was from. He knew that we couldnt leave a child having less just because they lived in a region that was poor. Joanne benson he has not just talked about it. He is going to stand tall for all children to succeed. Im Chris Van Hollen, and i approved this message. Waited till the next morning hoping anything would go by. Jonathan lucky we can tell the story in april. I would have had a different outcome in august. 72yearold ann rogers on her way to visit family on march 31. That is when she made a wrong turn and got lost in the desert of arizona and she was out there for nine okay. There was no food, no water, no cell signal. Her car was out of gas and batteries because it was a hybrid. There was no one nearby. Michelle she drank pond water, ate plants and camped out in her car and used sticks and rocks to spell out the word help. I knew how much pain my family and friends and those who knew me well were feeling about the fact i had been gone, miss something long. The ground searchers found my note. Help. I need it now. Michelle in the nick of time. She was taken to the hospital for exposure but sent home that same night. She is fine. Jonathan she has been out hiking already. Michelle yeah. Jonathan hopefully she is bringing a g. P. S. Or a map with her. Michelle dont make the mistake again. Its one of the many signs that parts of new orleans are still recovering from hurricane can trina. Jonathan if you go to the six flags outside the city its untouched since expect for vandals breaking in from time to time its shut downment Developers Want to bring it back to life. Despite it looks like a scene for a horror movie. They should probably rent it out for that. The city Board Members want a financial commitment from the developers to turn it into a brand new Amusement Park or sports complex. Michelle this is unusual story. It may have been a tight squeeze but it is enough for inky the ok pus to stage the great escape. The manager of the National Aquarium said the octopus found a weak spot in the tank and got free and slithered eight feet across the floor of the aquarium to a drain that led to the bay. Inky is likely rooming the sea floor back to his natural habitat. They are known to be intelligent and curious. Jonathan that is a smart ok pus. Free free one, too.
