Golden state to keep sanders at bay. Lets start with a big morning. Steve kornacki at the big board. Take us through the latest numbers here. Good morning, jose. Yes, quinnipiac new national poll. Weve seen a lot with spreads like this in the last couple of weeks. Hillary clinton 45, donald trump 41. A fourpoint race. Think back about a month, about six weeks ago. We were seeing a doubledigit spread between these two. You heard democrats saying, hey, trump, this is the dream opponent, cant lose this race. You had some republicans at least saying, wow, were doomed with donald trump, but he locked up the republican nomination. A lot of rips rallied around him and so thats what you see, a much closer race between the two of them. Democrats hope when the primary wraps up maybe there will be some rallying around Hillary Clinton then and maybe those numbers will boost up for her as well. Check this out, though. One of the things weve been looking at is the unusual opening that may exist for
Bernie sanders conceding the state to clinton tonight. Clinton leading sanders by literally 1500 votes of more than 600,000 cast. Every vote counts. Jeff zeleny is outfront tonight. A big win for victory, but how big of a win . What does it mean for missouri . The math remains about the same win or lose. How democrats select their nomine nominees, its proportional. Bernie sanders will get roughly the same number of delegates from missouri has clinton. A big sweep for the Clinton Campaign is a big deal in terms of momentum and mindset. Arizona is going to vote next week. Then a series of other states they believe are favorable to him. Washington state a week from saturday. Erin, this is the main reason that Bernie Sanders believes that he still could achieve this. California does not vote until june 7th. That is the biggest prize of all. That was different from 08. In 08, it was on super tuesday. California being at the very end here is what Bernie Sanders is waiting for. Theres also wi
But we start tonight with the unsubtle art of political symbolism. When political symbolism doesnt just happen in nature. When you dont just accidentally get a guy ringing the necks of live hurricane katrinaies behind sarah palin without her noticing or you dont get out the religious candidate flipping a pancake so hard he flipped himself off a political stage. When political symbolism doesnt happen to you because the universe offers that to you. Instead you try to construct it, it is still striems ometimes as profound as moments like this. It is also mystifying him take, for example, this picture. Which we will look at closely. This is a picture from todays news. This is a carefully constructed act of political symbolism. Awe see here the main subject here is the governor of mississippi. Thats the guy with the grey hair there in the foreground. He is signing a bill. Any governor can sign a bill in private. But it in a big stack of paper like the other stuff he has to sign. You dont ne
Life as a nonsmoker is a whole lot of fun. Ask your doctor if chantix is right for you. Lyin ted, he lies. Im not going to reach 1237 and donald trump is not going to reach 1237. At the right side ill be so president ial youll be so bored. This race is headed to cleveland. Hillary, youre fired. Ive said two groups of sanders supporters that may not support me now, i totally understand that but i support them. Well have to win a lot of states and delegates. We have to unify our country. Good thursday morning. The president ial race is now in a new direction, new states with new strategies. For the republicans the battle continues to be over delegates and internal memo obtained by nbc news, Campaign Advisers to donald trump believe he can get to 1400 delegates before the convention. Well more than the number he needs to clinch the nomination. Ted cruz and john kasich still preparing for a contested convention and now every republican is working to win over a suddenly crucial batch of unb
What really has man he into people focused on this primary today is the extent of their victory and how many delegates they are going to win. In the latest National Poll the wall street journal poll shows trump nationally has he did last minute campaigning in buffalo, new york. Under the new york state system he will need at least 50 percent if he is going to win all 95 delegates that are at stake and that would be winner take all. Trump spoke yesterday to the people of new york and he ratcheted up the pressure on his two opponents. Listen. We are going to show ted cruz who hates new york, hates new york. When you look at that debate and you see the way he talked about us and new york values, no new yorker can vote for ted cruz and no new yorker can vote for kasich when he was won that approved. John kasich did campaigning in new york state. He is not going to win but he is cherry picking districts in the hopes that he will be able to throw up a number of obstacles to trump getting the
