Im doug mckelway. Ed henry is in columbus, ohio. But first Fox News Senior National Correspondent john roberts in westchester with the latest on the republicans. John . Doug, good afternoon to you. You know most president ial candidates, president s for that matter deal with protesters at many events. This is an unavoidable nuisance. Some like bill clinton developed certain lines. But in truth, donald trump is making sport of it. At a rally in bloomington, illinois trump offered a protester that the crowd had identified the chance to speak out. Listen. Lets hear your voice. Go ahead lets hear it. Do you have any voice. Come on . Reporter all of this reached a new level on friday when trump cancelled his rally on friday because thousands of protesters infiltrated the rally. Yesterday in dayton, ohio a man jumped the kbard. He had to be tackled by secret service. Looking back at chicago trump said the protesters werent exercising their right to free speech they were trying to prevents his. You had a group of people, 3,000 people and maybe even more and they all showed up. Did you notice. Some of you were there. They all showed up like at the same time. It was totally organized. Troublemakers. Troublemakers. You know the truth is. They are disruptors. They are not protesters. They are disruptors. They are supposed to disrupt. Reporter trump has a town hall meeting here in we west chester county. Mitt romney won this with 62 of the vote back in 2012 but there are some protesters outside. We havent spotted any inside yet. Donald trump wraps up his day today long flight down florida where he has an event at boca raton. Well watch this closely. Because certainly this is even more interesting than it had been in the past. Doug. Daybyday. Well be watching. On the other side of the aisle Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are getting ready for a town hall tonight in columbus, ohio. Both candidate have been campaigning hard in the Buckeye State where sanders is hoping for a repeat of his surprise win in michigan. Ed henry is in columbus with the very latest. Hi, ed. Reporter good to see you. Youre right. Bernie sanders trying to build momentum here in the midwest because of that surprise victory in michigan. Hes certainly hoping to win here in ohio. Polls show its extremely tight and hell be here where i am on the campus of ohio state in a couple of hours for a rally. Thats his base, those young people, College Students he needs to get out to the polls on tuesday. Hillary clinton on her side second straight day starting the day with visits to africanamerican churches. Thats what shes been doing all weekend particularly in the cleveland area about two hours from columbus. Shes trying to turn out her vote and push back on these allegations from Bernie Sanders that she is too tied with wall street. I listened to everybody else they will tell you what they are against. Im against bad things too. Im going to stop bad actors. Im never going to let wall street wreck main street again. Thats not going to happen on my watch. Its not enough to be president of our country to tell people what youre against. To points fingers. Scapegoat. To blame. Reporter now Bernie Sanders has been focusing his attention in part on pushing back on donald trump. All of this noise were hearing back and forth about the protests at his rallies, trump accusing sanders of stirring up the protests and, in fact, moveon. Org which has endorsed Sanders Campaign has said that they are trying to shut down a trump rally, been taking credit for it. Sanders says he knows nothing about that and when asked on a sunday show today about trump calling him a communist he really fired back. Watch. This man cannot stop lying about anything. To call me a communist is a lie. To talk about our organization or our campaign, disrupting his meeting is a lie. Were there some people, there were thousands of people as i under it . Reporter now whats interesting for sanders moving forward to tuesday is that a state judge here a couple of days ago ruled that 17yearolds who turn 18 by november can vote in this primary on tuesday. That obviously could be a huge boost for sanders. Its being appealed. Ed henry reporting on the ground. Tuesdays primary in ohio is really makeorbreak for Governor John Kasich Whose Campaign hinges on that home state but he has support from an unli unlikely person, marco rubio. Rubio Campaign Says he believes kasich is the only candidate who can stop trump in that state. That may be true. Kasich is leading trump by five points. Other polls show the two neck and neck. Chrissy thompson has been covering the kasich campaign. I would like to start off with a weet th tweet that governor kasich fired off. No republican ever won the white house without rining ohio. What does he need to do to take ohio . Governor kasich is very popular here. Almost 80 say he has favorable opinions of him. Thats more than any other cane. As you mentioned its very close in the polls with donald trump. A lot of donald Trump Supporters say they do like governor kasich but not quite sure if hes able to win, win the primary election and then win in november. So thats the big question if he can convince his people in ohio that he has a chance of winning the nomination then they can turn out and vote for him and thats really the big question for the kasich campaign. Critics of governor kasich said one of his liabilities support for common Core Education standards. He was asked about that on Fox News Sunday just this morning by chris wallace. Heres a look. In our state, our state school board has adopted very high standards, and the curriculum is developed by local School Boards. Plain and simple. Call it anything you want to, at the end of the day we set the standards and the local School Boards develop the curriculum. Is that true and do ohio voters hold him accountable for his support for common core . How does it go over in that state answer to both of those questions is yes. In ohio the state did choose to sign on the those common Core Educational standards. Those are they come with someone from the federal government. Thats one way you can meet federal requirements. There are other ways to meet them as well. Common core is the most common way. Governor kasich said our state chose that independently. Its not a government program. Thats not feeflg many conservatives in ohio who do hold kasich accountable for that and upset the state has signed on to these common core standards. He said go with your local School Boards and you should have local impact on that. The conservatives say its not that easy. Youve told the whole state were going to do than we dont want to do this. Governor kasich has had a turn around in the state of ohio. I remember back in february of 2011 and i happen to be in columbus covering the story he backed the Public Sector union reform bill as did Governor Scott walker in the state of wisconsin. But unlike Walker Kasich failed in his effort, quote unlike scott Walkers Union reforms kasichs reforms included police and firefighters which put the bill on shaky ground. By november, sb5 was finished and so was john kasichs tenure as a union reformer. February 12, 2016. What helped turn governor kasichs fortunes around after that . Yeah. He really backed off the union reform. Honestly thats something conservatives hold against him. They feel he should have pushed to make ohio a right to work state. He said people of ohio spoke. They voted down this new law 21 in a referendum and he said well ill focus on other things. He started focusing on Medicaid Expansion and on ways to help people with mental illness, autism, the working poor, and focusing on programs that help relieve poverty and thats boosted his approval rating. He has broader range of approval now among republicans and democrats. He feel he has done a pretty good job as governor. They point to the fact that the states economy steadily improving. You can bring out a lot of different numbers to see we have lagged the National Average in a lot of categories but our overall employment is up and people feel they are on stronger footing here in ohio. One last question. What are you specifically looking for in ohio . What regions, what areas are you looking for on tuesday to give us some sort of a bellwether indication who will win. Southwest ohio is a huge area to look at because kasich isnt as popular down there. Theres a lot of conservatives. When we look at turn out and how things go in southwest ohio well have to see how strongly donald Trump Supporters are coming out. Kasich is hoping to bring out a lot of supporters in northern and northeast ohio where they are more moderate. Those are the two areas to look at to see which campaign is turning out more people on tuesday. Chrissy thompson, appreciate you joining us. Thanks much. Stay with fox news on election day. Well be covering all the polls all day tuesday. Megyn kelly and bret baier will hold special primetime election coverage. You dont want to miss it. This is a fox news alert. There are reports of several attackers opening fire on a popular beach resort in the ivory coast. Reuters is reporting an officer with the National Police says at least 12 people have been killed in the attack including four europeans. The assault happened just a short time ago. Witnesses say they heard gunfire, saw people running away from a beach resort. Security forces responded. Theres no word yet on who was behind the assault but this would be the third attack on a Tourism Center in a west african country since november. If any developments arise well keep you posted. Here in the states at least three people have died in louisiana and mississippi. Officials are still looking for two missing fishermen as floodwaters continue to rise. Downpours across the south have been causing massive flooding, submerging roads, washing out bridges and forcing people to leave their homes. In western tennessee rescue crews helped evacuate one family and their five dogs. Hes been crying because this is his river life. He didnt want to leave it. Unfortunately you got to do what you got to do. Absolutely. Is there any relief in sight . Our meteorologist is at the Fox Extreme Weather Center with the latest. We really have to get through today and then a drier stretch of weather but look at these flood totals. Over two feet of rain in louisiana, close to two feet in parts of texas and arkansas. So this has been an ongoing situation. We do have a cold front moving through the region across the Mississippi River valley, a threat for not only heavy rain today but Severe Weather for portions of arkansas, louisiana and mississippi. And then tuesday, wednesday, thursday, much drier conditions. So for monroe, louisiana where they received over two feet of rain, we got to get through today, the threat of Severe Weather as well as the potential for more flooding and then the rest of the work week looks good with drier conditions. Want to focus on the Severe Threat because we could see large hail, damaging winds and tornadoes for this area shaded in orange but youre not out of the woods in monroe, louisiana and in towards mississippi and up towards kentucky, tennessee and also oklahoma where we could see the hail, the damaging winds and tornadoes. Tomorrow the midatlantic will watch for thunderstorms and then i want to point your attention to tuesday. Super tuesday for illinois as well as ohio, we have the risk for strong to severe storms. People are headed out to vote. Thats a big story as we head into the new work week. Also watching the west coast storm after storm here with flooding and Higher Elevation snow. This has been ongoing for the last several days and this is no exception this weekend into next week. Again the potential for heavy rainfall, flooding and Higher Elevation snow. Ultimately good news situation but travel plans are going to be disrupted and if i could really quick as we head into monday and tuesday watching this system potentially affecting the midwest and of course well be watching the polls in both illinois and ohio for super tuesday. So we could have strong thunderstorms that well keep an eye on it along with all the weather across the south and the flooding. Back to you. Less than 48 hours to go until super tuesday take two. Five states, millions of voters and a possible turning point in the campaign for the republican nomination. Were awaiting the start of john kasich town hall meeting in ohio.

Hillary clinton and Bernie Sanders are on the campaign trail ahead of tuesdays primaries. Democratic rivals are spending much of the weekend in ohio where 143 of the total 691 delegates are up for grabs. Senator sanders is hoping to keep the momentum going after his surprise win in michigan so will we see a shift on tuesday . Lets have a fair and balanced debate. Pen gentlemen lee Senior Adviser and christian ferry who ran senator Lindsey Grahams president ial campaign. Thank you both for joining me. I want to get the right our conversation because theres a lot we can talk about. I want to start with a really bad inappropriate pun. Will we feel the burn going into tuesday, will bernie see the same results well see. I dont think its a bad pun. Something that they are very proud of. Its catchy. Look theres a lot of delegates at stake. This is a crucial moment for the campaign, for both of the campaigns to be able to garner the necessary support. What youve seen although mrs. Clinton did lose michigan, she actually had an overall night because of her big wins in louisiana, mississippi and others. She had more delegates collected and thats what were into right now is that delegate count. If bernie wants to make a shift and really go ahead ahead of mrs. Clinton he has to win big and win by a large margin. If he doesnt win big, i heard an interview this morning and he said listen im going to do really well in the states farther west. I dont see any enthusiasm on his side waning. I dont think the enthusiasm will wane. Well continue to raise money, continues to be in this race and because delegate dose their delegate allocation he can continue to pick up delegates whether or not hes winning or not. Look i think its a very difficult case to make that he can actually beat Hillary Clinton at this point, but hes not going to get so far down in the delegate any time soon that i think youll see him step aside. Youve run a campaign. I want to ask you this question. I had read an article this morning and Hillary Clinton had talked about how shes not necessarily a natural politician like her husband or president obama. It was a be very tender moment, vulnerable, authentic. What has she done to how has she changed, not only because of outside factors but also because of Bernie Sanders . How has she changed in this campaign Bernie Sanders has moved the race, you know, further to the left. Hillary clinton has had to adjust. I think the authenticity issue is one shes struggled with throughout this campaign. Its one of the reasons she hasnt been able to stop this 74yearold selfdescribed socialist. There are moments in a campaign and a Good Campaign is one that can take advantage of those moments when it happens. I want to pose the same question to you. You are a hillary supporter. U h change on some issues going further left than you were anticipating. Its hard for someone who has known her for many years as i have when you know her in person shes a war
