Chance of Severe Weather heading into the morning hours. Here are the threats. John joins me now. John, every threat is on the table . John it is. The lowest is hailed. We could see some hail, but it is in the low category. The highest category is flash flooding. We could see heavy rain with a thunderstorms rumbling through. Strong winds, straightline winds possible. Low to medium risk for tornadoes because we have wind shear going on. Especially south o o i85, that is the best chance of isolated tornadoes. We will be watching that closely. Now back to you. Michael breaking news this evening, out of the republican race for president. Carol senator ted cruz has asked his Campaign Spokesman to resign. This, after spokesman rick tyler tweeted a story that falsely accused marco rubio of insulting the bible. Michael cruz says tyler is a good man, and deleted the tweet once he found it was false. Carol it was a gop primary South Carolina voters wont soon forget. Michael not only did donald trump dominate the primary, voter turnout in this state may have reached new heights. With the numbers. Tim . Tim voter turnout on saturday , michael and carol, was impressive to say the least. Check this out. 25 of all registered voters in South Carolina cast a ballot on saturday for one of six gop contenders. Thats a 4 4 igher turnout than what we saw in 2012, when 22 voted. And look at these comparisons of voter turnout on saturday, to the 2012 gop primary in union, cherokee, pickens, laurens, and anderson counties. Massive numbers of voters went to the polls this year. The same story in abbeville, spartanburg, greenwood, oconee, and greenville counties. 4 years ago, 8 years ago, these turnout numbers were unheard of. The turnout on saturday was even greater than the recordsetting turnout by democrats in 2008, who were eager to see president obama elected. 24 of voters cast ballots in that primary, which is still 1 shy of the gop vote this past michael . Michael thanks, tim. Republican candidates have moved on to campaigning in nevada, and super tuesday states. Donald trump won saturdays South Carolina gop primary. However, some would say governor nikki haley, won as well. Her late endorsement of marco rubio may have been exactly what put the senator ahead to a second place showing. The final numbers show rubio beat senator ted cruz by only 1,091 votes. Donald trump carried almost the entire state, except two counties. Rubio won charleston and richland counties. The governors endorsement, how big was that . I think it was huge. Jeb would have performed much better than he did, had Governor Haley endorsed him rather than rubio. And i certainly think it helped rubio considerably in his fight with cruz for that second place spot. Michael you may recall greenville mayor knox white, congressman trey gowdy, and senator tim scott all endorsed rubio, as well. Was the biggest problem voters faced during the primary. Wyff news 4s myra ruiz tells us what happened to one voter, who then went to the right precinct, but still couldnt vote. Myra were at the Spartanburg CountyVoter Registration and elections office, where some people are casting absentee ballots.

Myra thats exactly what crossed through Sergeant Janelle martuccis mind on saturday. I pointed to them, and told them, its two til 7 00. The polls dont officially close until 7 00. Myra but Elections Officials say they follow their own clocks, not voters watches. Sgt. Martucci says she had just wrapped up drill duty, a soldier in uniform, it has an impact on people. Myra and thought they could make an exception. Myra by law, the clerk has to declare out loud that the polls are closed. But if you get to that line after that announcements been made, then by law, youre not allowed to vote. Myra Elections Officials says people should check with scvotes. Org to make sure they know where they need to be, so they can get there on time. But dont wait until the last minute. Myra in the case of sgt. Martucci, director henry laye says he actually spoke to the clerk where she showed up, and said that the clerk was also so upset that she had to turn away a woman in uniform that she brought that up with her sunday school class the very next day.
