Campaign 2016 as america chooses a new president. Nearly half the delegates needed to capture the nomination were up for grabs tonight along with a third of the delegates needed for the democratic nomination. Lets have a look. Trump won georgia, alabama, virginia, tennessee, arkansas, massachusetts, and vermont. But ted cruz won his home state of texas, the biggest delegate prize of the night. And neighboring oklahoma. So he survives to fight another day. Marco rubio gets his first win in minnesota. On the democratic side, Hillary Clinton has won massachusetts, georgia, virginia, alabama, tennessee, arkansas, and texas. And Bernie Sanders won his home state of vermont as well as oklahoma, minnesota, and colorado. We learned tonight . Learned a good night for the frontrunners. At about the challengers . Bernie sanders got some wins. He got wins in states with the liberal electorate and not an, pretty white electorate. Doesnt suggest he will be able to fix his problem in the Democratic Party where africanamericans are playing a central role he has beenenble to make inroads. On the republican side.

That trump had not done enough to disavow ku klux klan and other hate g gups like that. Trump said he did in fact disavow them. David duke and others like them and said he would work with leaders in congress including paul ryan. Then he added ryan better play ball or else. Im going to get along great with congress. Paul ryan. I dont know him well. Sure i am going to get along great with him. If i dont, he will have to pay a big price, okay. We have done something that almost nobody thought could be done. I just want to leave you with this, i am a unifier. I would love to see the Republican Party and everybody get together and unify. And when we unify, there is nobody, nobody that is going to beat us. Thank k u very much, everybody. Thank you. Thank you very muc thank you. Trump did not declare himself Presumptive Republican nominee but did say he is expanding and remaking the gop. And he made it clear that trump sees a multicandidate field ahead as something that works to his advantage. It will divide the antitrump vote. This race turns into a completely different stage on march 15th when big states like ohio and florida have primaries and awardrtheir delegates to the winner, winner take all. Charlie.
