anticipating a general election matchup between hillary clinton and donald trump. if you include superdelegates, she surpassed a 2,383 delegates needed to become the presumptive democratic nominee and that makes her the first woman in history to do so, but vermont senator bernie sanders is not backing down. in fact, he's urging superdelegates to shift their support to him arguing that he is the stronger candidate to take on trump and we just learned some breaking news regarding trump and the race as a whole. the republican senator from illinois mark kirk said, quote, he cannot and will not support trump for president. >> it's a reversal of kirk's previous statement that he would support trump and comes in light of trump's recent comments about a federal judge. those comments also prompted new criticism today from another party leader. house speaker paul ryan is the latest to blast the nominee's remarks on gonzalo curiel. he can't preside over lawsuits over trump university due it his mex tican heritage and his plan to build a wall. >> claiming someone can't do the job because of their race is a racist comment. it's disavowed and absolutely unacceptable. >> ryan says he's still supporting his party's nominee. coming to trump's defense, meanwhile is new jersey governor chris christie. christie told reportes that while casting his ballot in the state's primary today that trump is not a racist and has the right to his opinion. controversial comments tonight from the chairman of trump's campaign in virginia, as well. >> as northern virginia bureau reporter david culver reports he is doubling down on illegal immigration. >> reporter: and there's more campaign controversy involving donald trump right here in virginia. trump's virginia chair, corey stewart, who is the prince william cou supervisors posted a response on facebook to a trump supporter having an egg thrown at her in that response. corey stewart suggested that illegal immigrants should be thrown out and that he will take that ak as governor and i caught up with him today and here's what he had to say about those remarks. >> the people who attacked those trump supporters need to be punished. they need to be identified and to the extent that any of them are illegal immigrants they need to be removed from the country. we are turning a blind eye to illegal immigrants who are committing crimes in this country and who are being released by the federal government instead of being deported. >> reporter: so what do democrats have to say about those comments posted on facebook, we'll look at that ahead on news 4 at 5:00. in alexandria, virginia, i'm david culver, news 4. our 2016 coverage will continue on air and online. we'll be updating results live all night long on the nbc washington app. we're into our second weekday of metro's safe track program you are probably getting used to the change e but the tests continue today for drivers as they see just how congested the roads are. the district says it will deploy more traffic control officers to keep things moving. as mark segraves reports only on 4, you won't be seeing them for some time. >> reporter: hi, chris. we are here on k street right now and you can see things are moving pretty smoothly. traffic control officers are standing in the intersection to make sure you don't block the box and keep things moving. most of those tcos are located right here within a few blocks of where i'm standing. >> although, as i mentioned this work is not happening in washington, d.c., proper, i want to reiterate that all of the repairs, we think, will affect commutes, commute times and traffic in the district. that was muriel bowser's warning last week when she listed the steps d.c. was taking to keep traffic moving while metro is conducting track work additional traffic control officers were one of the things on that list. >> we will put more traffic control officers on the street at bus bridges and critical intersections. >> but it turns out that won't happen for a while. >> as soon as possible. >> weeks? months? >> as soon as possible. i don't want to give you a date. >> right now, only ten intersections in the district are manned by traffic control officers during rush hour. nine of them are located in the same area along the downtown k street corridor. >> department of transportation officials expect new tcos to be on the street by the end of june. one other thing they put into effect this week were the bike shares with the $2 rides. yesterday 627 people signed up for those new $2 one-way trips. coming up at 5:00, we'll tell you why it's taking so long to get the traffic control officers into these intersections. barbara, back to you. >> thank you. >> turning now to storm team 4 and the pockets of rain that are showing all over the radar this afternoon. >> and let's get you storm team 4 chief meteorologist doug kammerer. doug, are we talking about a brief shower or downpours here?

firefighters say the combination of smoke alarm and an alert neighbor probably prevented further tragedy. >> we're definitely sorry and mourn with the family, but there is a bright light at the end of

wow. i've got to tell you, we've been watching your radar and watching the storms popping in and out and is this something that will be brief showers or are we in for a sustained rain here? >> brief showers and for most of us we'll be dry for the rest of the evening so if you have plans outside and you're looking at the app and noticing the radar and the good news is we're noticing in most areas the activity starting to quiet down, but where it's still raining it's raining hard and we're starting to see a line of rain with embedded thunderstorms developing and this now south and east of the district, very team 4 radar and this impacting prince george's charles county down to the fredericksburg area and out on the eastern shore and notice the bright colors here on the radar and we're seeing yellows, oranges and reds. that is very heavy torrential downpours and these storm thshgs line is racing toward the east-southeast at about 35 miles an hour. another lone cell here this up in frederick county impacting the boonsboro area, moving toward frederick along 70. so we're still going to track some isolated showers after that line sinks down out of the area, but for most of us especially by 7:00, 8:00 p.m. mainly dry and 79 degrees and we can warm back up into the 80s and in the low 70s and 10:00 cool and low 70s and later this evening, very nice and already spectacular right now and tomorrow will be breezy and cool. as we look to the end of the friday and for the weekend tracking rain chances and more in a moment and currently we're in the upper 70s and low 80s and tomorrow morning, 63 degrees and that is not a mistake and 7:00 a.m. and you might want to put a light jacket on the kids and new and refreshing around 70 and low 70s at 4:00 and breezy and noticeably breezy, i should say and not just at 4:00, but throughout the entire day and a repeat performance for our thursday and the pool forecast the next few days and tomorrow, not a great idea to head to the pool and it will feel very chilly there and improvements by thursday, friday, perfect pool day. >> the humidity levels for the remainder of the workweek will be pleasant by saturday and just a little bit sticky. as far as temperatures are concerned that's 73 tomorrow and 78 on thursday and around 80 on friday. for the weekend, not and just a chance of late-day showers and thunderstorms on saturday and low to mid-80s for a high on saturday and sunday. >> everyone appreciate as i good deal, but when the company makes a mistake it accidentally offers one that's too good to be true and should they be forced to honor it? >> that's the question when you ask nbc 4 responds and consumer reporter susan hogan is here with the answer. i'm interested in knowing the answer. >> so many people are interested in this. here's the deal. a major manufacturer known for quality electronics and the latest smart tv and customers, naturally jumped on it. >> so this is old technology to me. 2016 and i've had the tv for eight years. margaret williams is in the market for a new tv. >> a coworker of mine sent me a text message saying a sale on tvs. >> they have a h samsung tv and 48 inch for $100 and that's right, the ad really read $100, a savings of nearly $950. >> of course, immediately i started sending it to my friends and family and we ordered it as quickly as we could. >> because it was that big of a deal. >> that great of a deal. so they started shopping. >> we've gone through the entire process. we all use credit cards and lets you order it and you even got the confirmation email, thanking her and her girlfriend and robert's girlfriend. >> two tvs total. >> but the tvs never shipped. >> instead -- >> a couple of days later i got an email saying that my order has been canceled. >> samsung told customers there was a glitch, an error in the price posted. >> they were not going to honor my two-tv order. >> that's when robert and essence called nbc responds. >> i wanted to get to the of it. >> we reached out to samsung that it told us in part the television was mistakenly listed on sale for $100. as soon as it was discovered, samsung provided the correct sale price of $799.99. samsung says it did not charge the customers. instead, it canceled their orders and issued them all a $50 gift certificate. >> i don't want the $50 gift certificate. i want my tv that you advertised for $100. >> we reached out to the federal trade commission about pricing mistakes and it confirmed there is no federal law that requires companies to honor the price. >> we did get the money back, and i feel like we should get our tvs. >> you still have your old 8-year-old tv. >> cranking right along. >> samsung offered a gift certificate and they really didn't have to. the law does not allow companies to intentionally mislead consumers, but in this case it was just a mistake, and if you have a consumer help solving, give us a call or tell us about it online and just go to nbcwashington.com/respond. >> i think maybe if it was one tv, they should honor it let them have it for $100 whe, but t where the company is coming from. we're not give young eight tvs. >> it was a deal that looked so good and they did get their money back and also got a $50 credit. >> thanks for looking into that. >> it was very cool. >> very interesting. >> you're welcome. >> millions of
