Last night he won in nevada with marco rubio and ted cruz way back. Heading toward super tuesday next week, trump has more delegates than his rivals combined. And Dean Reynolds is in las vegas. Reporter thi confounded Republican Party establishment may fervently wish what happens in vegas stays in vegas, but Donald Trumps march to the nomination would be hard to bet against now. Today the victor was in virginia, one of 12 states with contests next tuesday. So we had a very exciting evening last night. Reporter in nevada3trump ran the table, winning almost every category of voter and by a bigger margin than in New Hampshire or South Carolina. We won with young. We won with old. We won with highly educated. We won with poorly educated. I love the poorly educated. Reporter there were twice as many caucusgoers as four years ago. Six out of ten said the next president should be a political outsider. Usa, usa reporter perfect fits for trump, whose rivals sifted the landslide for nuggets of hope in their home states. Marco rubio has a bunch of endorsements but no wins. The florida senator told cbs this morning that will change. Well win in florida. Now that governor bush is no longer in the race, hip and i split a lot of support in florida that. Will help us. As far as going into next week, we feel great about almost every state thats on the map. Reporter texas senator ted cruz is trying to grab a victory in texas where the governor just endorsed him. Texas has 155 delegates. It is the crown jewel of super tuesday. Texas has alone almost 15 of the delegates you need to be the republican nominee. Reporter john case, noted that he alone is within the against trump in ohio, but kasich is the governor of ohio. Now, in an effort to slow trump down, there are increasing calls to see his past tax returns.

Democracy is not a spectator sport. All of you and all of the american people, we are the quarterbacks of our future. Reporter but a win in South Carolina and large super tuesday states like texas, virginia and georgia, could give clinton an unsurmountable lead. Hi. How are you . Reporter shes already begun to talk less about sanders and more about republicans. They want to turn back all of our rights womens rights, civil right, gay right, voting Voting Rights, workers rights. Reporter sanders has always acknowledged hes dependent on one thing. Our job is to create a high voter turnout. Reporter but so far democratic turnout is down from 2008 by 25 in iowa, 13 in New Hampshire, and 33 in nevada. You often say you want to create the kind of Political Revolution that president obama couldnt. Is the fact that turnout is lower a sign that that revolution isnt happening in obama ran an unprecedented, Brilliant Campaign in 2008. I think we have come a long, long way. We are now in the lead in the national polls. I think we have made real progress. Reporter the reason sanders wants high turnout is because it would signify that younger voters, who typically back him russia flocking to the polls, but, scott, older voters have always been more reliable voters, and in nevada, for instance, voters went for clinton by a full 50 points.

Mcconnell to explain how if the public concludes that this person is very well qualified that the senate should stand in the way simply for political reasons. Reporter mr. Obama even published a blog, detailing what he is looking for in a nominee. Senate majority leader harry reid offered a surprise pick, nevadas republican governor brian sandoval. But i know if he were picked, i would support the man. Reporter but republicans like senator mike lee say theyre holding firm until after the election, no matter who the nominee is. There is absolutely nothing unprecedented and absolutely nothing improper about the senate choosing to withhold its consent to the president s nominee to the Supreme Court. Reporter now sandovals office says no one has contacted him about vetting, but he has called obamacare unconstitutional and has said he and, scott, thats one reason why republicans say that sandoval buzz is just a white house and reid playing games. Pelley jan crawford. Jan, thanks very much. Today a kennedy cousin went back the court hoping to clear his name in a murder that was committed four decades ago. Peter van sant of 48 hours was there.
