US Election 2016

:00:16. > :00:21.Welcome back to this BBC News special. We are covering the

:00:22. > :00:26.primaries on the Super Tuesday and we will go down to Florida, where

:00:27. > :00:37.Hillary Clinton is speaking. Thank you, Ohio! You know, although we're

:00:38. > :00:45.waiting for final results, we know we will add to our lead to roughly

:00:46. > :00:55.300, with over 2 million more votes nationwide! We are moving closer to

:00:56. > :01:04.securing the Democratic party nomination and winning this election

:01:05. > :01:12.in November! You know, because of all of you, and our supporters

:01:13. > :01:14.across the country, our campaign has earned more votes than any other

:01:15. > :01:31.candidate, Democrat or Republican. And I want to congratulate Bernie

:01:32. > :01:41.Sanders for the vigorous campaign he is waging! Now, today all of you in

:01:42. > :01:47.the States where contests were held voted to break down the barriers

:01:48. > :01:58.that hold us all back. So, everyone of us can share in the promise of

:01:59. > :02:03.America. You voted. You voted... You voted for our tomorrow to be better

:02:04. > :02:08.than our yesterday. Tomorrow, where all of us do our part and everyone

:02:09. > :02:17.has a chance to live up to his or her God-given potential.

:02:18. > :02:26.Because that's how America can live up to its potential to. Now, we need

:02:27. > :02:35.you to keep working. -- potential too. Keep volunteering, keep

:02:36. > :02:41.contributing at hillaryclinton.com. Please, please, join the 950,000

:02:42. > :02:46.supporters who already have contributed, most less than $100,

:02:47. > :02:51.because our campaign depends on small donations for the majority of

:02:52. > :02:54.our support. We can't do this without you, so if you've been

:02:55. > :03:07.waiting for the right moment now is the time to come and join us! You

:03:08. > :03:11.know, tonight it's clearer than ever that this may be one of the most

:03:12. > :03:17.consequential campaigns of our lifetimes. The next president will

:03:18. > :03:23.walk into the oval office next January, sit down at that desk and

:03:24. > :03:29.start making decisions that will affect the lives and livelihoods of

:03:30. > :03:40.everyone in this country, indeed everyone on this planet! Now, I know

:03:41. > :03:48.that easy decisions don't make it to the President's Cup, only the

:03:49. > :03:56.hardest choices. -- the president's desk. I saw President Obama's

:03:57. > :03:59.decision to rescue the auto industry, to fight for the

:04:00. > :04:15.affordable care act and so many more. And so the next president has

:04:16. > :04:18.to be ready to face three big tasks. First, can you make positive

:04:19. > :04:24.differences in people's lives? Second, can you keep us safe? Third,

:04:25. > :04:35.can you bring our country together again?

:04:36. > :04:46.Now, making differences in people's lives comes first because Americans

:04:47. > :04:49.everywhere are hungry for solutions. They want to break down the barriers

:04:50. > :04:55.holding them back so we can all together. Ask any parent, you will

:04:56. > :04:58.hear nothing is more important than making sure their kids have a good

:04:59. > :05:08.school and a good teacher no matter what ZIP code they live in. They

:05:09. > :05:12.deserve a president who understands that when we invest in our

:05:13. > :05:17.children's education we're investing in all of our futures and young

:05:18. > :05:22.people... Young people across America, struggling under the weight

:05:23. > :05:27.of student debt, find it difficult to imagine the futures they want and

:05:28. > :05:31.they deserve a president who will help relieve them of that burden and

:05:32. > :05:40.help future generations go to college without borrowing a dying

:05:41. > :05:46.for tuition! -- borrowing a dime. And grandparents who worry about

:05:47. > :05:53.retirement deserve a president who will protect and then expand social

:05:54. > :06:00.security for those who need it most. Not cut or privatise it.

:06:01. > :06:11.Families deserve a president who will fight for the things that our

:06:12. > :06:15.priorities at home but are too often not priorities in Parliament.

:06:16. > :06:31.Something we have waited for long enough, equal pay for women! And,

:06:32. > :06:40.above all, hard-working Americans across our country deserve a

:06:41. > :06:46.president with both the know-how to create good jobs with rising incomes

:06:47. > :06:53.right here in our country. And I am absolutely convinced that we have

:06:54. > :07:01.the tools to do that. That's why I've laid out a programme to do what

:07:02. > :07:09.can be done. More good jobs in infrastructure, more good jobs in

:07:10. > :07:18.manufacturing! More it good jobs in small businesses! -- more good. More

:07:19. > :07:28.good jobs in clean renewable energy! Good paying jobs are the

:07:29. > :07:33.ticket to the middle class and we're going to stand up for the American

:07:34. > :07:36.middle class again. We're going to stand up for American workers and

:07:37. > :07:45.make sure no one takes advantage of us. Not China, not Wall Street and

:07:46. > :07:51.not overpaid corporate executives! Now, look, look, of course every

:07:52. > :07:56.candidate, every candidate, makes promises like this. But every

:07:57. > :08:03.candidate lose it to you to be clear and direct about what our plans will

:08:04. > :08:08.cost and how we're going to make them work. -- owes it to you. That's

:08:09. > :08:18.the difference between running for president and being president.

:08:19. > :08:37.And I will tell you... The second big task for a president is keeping

:08:38. > :08:41.us safe. We live in a complex and dangerous world. Protecting

:08:42. > :08:46.America's national security can never be an afterthought. Our

:08:47. > :08:59.commander in chief has to be able to defend our country, not embarrass

:09:00. > :09:09.it. Engage our allies, not alienate them. Defeat our adversarial is, not

:09:10. > :09:15.embolden them. -- adversarial. When we hear a candidate for president

:09:16. > :09:21.calling to round up immigrants, ban all Muslims from entering the US...

:09:22. > :09:23.When he embraces torture, that doesn't make him strong, it makes

:09:24. > :09:38.him wrong! And, yes, the next president has to

:09:39. > :09:42.bring our country together so we can all sharing the promise of America.

:09:43. > :09:48.We should be breaking down barriers, not building walls. We're not going

:09:49. > :09:56.to succeed by dividing this country between us and them. You know, to be

:09:57. > :10:00.great we can't be small. We can't lose what made America great in the

:10:01. > :10:06.first place. And this isn't just about Donald Trump, all of us have

:10:07. > :10:11.to do our part. We can't just talk about economic inequality, we have

:10:12. > :10:21.to take out all forms of inequality and discrimination. Together we have

:10:22. > :10:27.to defend all of our rights, civil rights and voting rights. Workers

:10:28. > :10:36.rights and women's rights, LGBT rights and rights for people with

:10:37. > :10:39.disabilities. And that starts by standing with President Obama when

:10:40. > :10:48.he nominates a justice to the Supreme Court. Our next president

:10:49. > :10:54.will face all these challenges and more. Running for president is hard,

:10:55. > :11:02.but being president is harder. It is the hardest, most important job in

:11:03. > :11:05.the world and not one person can succeed at the job without seeking

:11:06. > :11:10.and finding common ground to solve the problems we face. If we worked

:11:11. > :11:15.together we can make a real difference in people's lives. If we

:11:16. > :11:20.reach out to treat each other with respect, kindness and even love

:11:21. > :11:26.instead of bluster and bigotry, if we lift each other up instead of

:11:27. > :11:31.tearing each other down, there's nothing can't accomplish together.

:11:32. > :11:36.So, please join me in this campaign. Every vote counts, every volunteer

:11:37. > :11:43.counts, every contribution counts. Eight years ago on the night of the

:11:44. > :11:52.Ohio primary I said I was running for every one who has ever been

:11:53. > :11:56.counted out but refused to be knocked down. For everyone who has

:11:57. > :12:00.stumbled but stood right back up. For everyone who works hard and

:12:01. > :12:05.never gives up. Well, that is still true. Our campaign is for the

:12:06. > :12:11.steelworker I met in Ohio on Sunday night, who is -- was laid off but

:12:12. > :12:16.hoping to get back to work. The mother in Miami whose five children

:12:17. > :12:23.haven't seen their father since he was deported. She dreams of the day

:12:24. > :12:35.when deportations and -- deportation and is and families are reunited.

:12:36. > :12:43.And it is for the mothers I stood with in Chicago yesterday, who have

:12:44. > :12:47.lost children to gun violence. They're turning their sorrow into a

:12:48. > :12:54.strategy and are creating a movement. Let stand with people who

:12:55. > :13:00.have courage and resilience. -- let's stand. Stand with those who

:13:01. > :13:04.believe America's best days are ahead of us. I've never had more

:13:05. > :13:08.faith in our future and if we work together, if we go forward in this

:13:09. > :13:14.campaign, if we win in November I know our future will be brighter

:13:15. > :13:22.tomorrow than yesterday! Thank you all so very much!

:13:23. > :13:30.Hillary Clinton speaking in Florida, talking about moving close

:13:31. > :13:36.to securing the Democratic nomination, saying if we want to be

:13:37. > :13:45.greatly can't be small, addressing Donald Trump. Talking as well about

:13:46. > :13:48.gun violence, about immigration, her economic policies and repeating the

:13:49. > :13:53.line that running for president is easier than actually being

:13:54. > :14:00.president, criticism also of Donald Trump.

:14:01. > :14:02.I'm joined now by Democratic Strategist Julian Epstein.

:14:03. > :14:05.I'm joined now by Republican Strategist Phil Musser.

:14:06. > :14:14.Thank you for joining me. Julian, you were listening to the speech?

:14:15. > :14:22.Absolutely. This is a huge night for her. She is on a path to nomination.

:14:23. > :14:26.It is almost impossible for Bernie Sanders to trip it up. She won North

:14:27. > :14:32.Carolina. Bernie Sanders would probably need 60 plus % of the vote

:14:33. > :14:37.after the night in order to win the nomination. It is unlikely for that

:14:38. > :14:41.to happen, especially given Pennsylvania, New York, California

:14:42. > :14:45.are just about there. An excellent night for Hillary Clinton. A very

:14:46. > :14:51.mixed night for the Republican Party. You are Republican

:14:52. > :14:59.strategist. We seem to have some clarity developing? No such luck for

:15:00. > :15:03.us. This process is probably going to go to June. For those watching

:15:04. > :15:09.and trying to understand the invocations, John Kasich on in Ohio.

:15:10. > :15:13.-- implications. Whether he can be the nominee or not is unclear. What

:15:14. > :15:17.this guarantees is that this race won't be over until the earliest

:15:18. > :15:20.June seven and probably not before them. In a lot of cases we will

:15:21. > :15:26.watch to see what happens in Missouri later, an important state

:15:27. > :15:30.for Ted Cruz. It will be a state where delegates are proportioned by

:15:31. > :15:36.winner takes all. We will see if Ted Cruz can get a win. The big news is

:15:37. > :15:40.obviously Marco Rubio dropping out. Still there, they are competing for

:15:41. > :15:46.a party that is 40% lock solid four Donald Trump. Go into the Clinton

:15:47. > :15:49.campaign headquarters now. Are we going to start seeing Hillary

:15:50. > :15:56.Clinton pivot towards the general election?

:15:57. > :16:04.Absolutely. You can tell from the speech she gave a few minutes ago

:16:05. > :16:08.that she's already engaging in that. Not just taking shots at Donald

:16:09. > :16:11.Trump by saying things like the next@has to not only keep the

:16:12. > :16:14.country safe but make sure they don't embarrass the country on the

:16:15. > :16:17.international stage, but outlining what the next president needs to do

:16:18. > :16:22.and she's hoping that's going to be her. She said the tasks of the next

:16:23. > :16:25.president are threefold - keeping the country safe, improving the

:16:26. > :16:28.economy and bringing the country back together. There's a lot of

:16:29. > :16:37.concern about the and what that will do to the mood in

:16:38. > :16:41.the country in the lead-up to November. However, she did not

:16:42. > :16:46.declare that she was done with the race. She congratulated Mr Sanders

:16:47. > :16:50.for what she described as a vigorous campaign on his part. I spoke to

:16:51. > :16:52.his... I spoke to her aides as well. They said they're not ready to

:16:53. > :17:00.declare this over. They will continue. But this is a huge night

:17:01. > :17:03.and to the point where it's going to become mathematically impossible for

:17:04. > :17:08.Mr Sanders to keep going in this race. OK. Thank you.

:17:09. > :17:12.Let's go to the big story of the night, which is Marco Rubio dropping

:17:13. > :17:20.out of the race. Nick Bryant is there at Rubio's headquarters. It

:17:21. > :17:23.looks pretty quiet and downcast at the Rubio headquarters. An

:17:24. > :17:30.extraordinary night. Who would have guessed a year ago - Jeb Bush out of

:17:31. > :17:35.the race, Scott Walker out of the race and Marco Rubio now out of the

:17:36. > :17:38.nomination process. Katty, it's a desolatory scene. They told us

:17:39. > :17:44.there's 30 more and then they're going to throw us out. They're

:17:45. > :17:48.collapsing the staining. It was a tiny venue. We're outside an arena.

:17:49. > :17:52.They would have been hoping to be in front of thousands of people inside

:17:53. > :17:57.the arena celebrating a victory in the home state of Florida. Instead

:17:58. > :18:02.we're in the lobby of the arena. It's a tiny venue. There are very

:18:03. > :18:07.few people here and it's an incredibly sad scene if you are a

:18:08. > :18:11.Rubio supporter. He basically composed his political epitaph

:18:12. > :18:14.tonight on the stage behind me. He said he was putting forward a

:18:15. > :18:17.hopeful and positive message in a year of anger and resentment. He

:18:18. > :18:27.said he was coming up with principles and ideas that, in a

:18:28. > :18:31.race, that wasn't receptive to them. That has been a problem all along

:18:32. > :18:35.and also he's an establishment favourite in a year of

:18:36. > :18:39.anti-establishment politicians like Donald Trump and Trump basically

:18:40. > :18:43.mowed him down in Florida. He never recovered from tussling in the mud

:18:44. > :18:48.with Donald Trump about the size of his manhood and all this puerile and

:18:49. > :18:53.infantile... Nick, I'm going to interrupt you because we're going to

:18:54. > :19:00.Ohio. Governor John Kasich is taking to the stage to address his

:19:01. > :19:04.supporters. USA! USA! USA! USA! You'd better believe... You'd better

:19:05. > :19:09.believe it's about America, about pulling us together, not pulling us

:19:10. > :19:18.apart. It is about USA! Exactly! CHEERING

:19:19. > :19:37.Well, first of all, I want to, um... Kasich! Kasich! Kasich! Kasich!

:19:38. > :20:08.Kasich! Hey! Don't... Listen. Listen, everybody. Let me... Hey!

:20:09. > :20:13.Hey listen. Now you know when you went to

:20:14. > :20:18.college in the 1970s, you appreciate a good peaceful protest every once

:20:19. > :20:27.in a while, huh? Yeah, you do. APPLAUSE

:20:28. > :20:32.First of all, you know, when you're in the arena and you are struggling

:20:33. > :20:37.and you leave your family to go out on the campaign trail and deliver a

:20:38. > :20:41.message to America, because you believe that you, you believe that

:20:42. > :20:45.you are the best-qualified person to be President of the United States

:20:46. > :20:52.and you put it all on the line and your family puts it all on the line,

:20:53. > :20:59.and I want this crowd here tonight to give a great, a great response to

:21:00. > :21:03.a very, very great, talented and fine United States senator, Mark-io

:21:04. > :21:08.Rubio for the effort that he has done. -- Marco Rubio, for the effort

:21:09. > :21:23.that he has done. APPLAUSE

:21:24. > :21:28.Tonight, tonight we arrived in Cleveland and we went to a

:21:29. > :21:38.restaurant. We thought we could kind of sneak in and grab a quick meal.

:21:39. > :21:46.And when we walked through the restaurant, people started to cheer.

:21:47. > :21:54.My reaction was, "Please don't do that, because you're going to make

:21:55. > :22:00.me cry." But to have, to have people believe in you and to believe that

:22:01. > :22:03.you can bring people together and strengthen our country, I have to

:22:04. > :22:24.thank the people of the great state of Ohio. I love you is all I can

:22:25. > :22:30.tell you. I love you. Kasich! Kasich! Kasich! You know, when I

:22:31. > :22:34.became Governor of Ohio, I went to New York and I met with some of the

:22:35. > :22:38.rating agencies. Things were bad. We'd lost 350,000 jobs. We were $8

:22:39. > :22:43.billion in the hole and our credit was hanging in the balance and they

:22:44. > :22:50.told me, "We're about to cut up your credit card and give you a new one

:22:51. > :22:56.where you can't buy as much." I said, "You don't understand Ohio.

:22:57. > :23:02.You don't understand Ohioans." So I can't wait to go back again. We're

:23:03. > :23:07.now up 400,000-plus jobs. We're running at $2 billion surplus. Our

:23:08. > :23:13.pensions are secure. We've cut taxes by more than any governor in this

:23:14. > :23:18.country and we are leaving no-one behind. Not the mentally ill, the

:23:19. > :23:28.drug-addicted, the working poor. CHEERING

:23:29. > :23:33.And I don't know whether you can actually serve a meal of words but I

:23:34. > :23:39.would like to go back to those credit rating agencies where they

:23:40. > :23:46.can learn to eat their words about doubting Ohio, huh? And you know,

:23:47. > :23:52.ladies and gentlemen, um... You know, look, my whole life has been

:23:53. > :23:56.about trying to create a climate of opportunity for people. You know, as

:23:57. > :24:02.my father carried that mail on his back and his father was a coal miner

:24:03. > :24:06.and, you know, I just was told by my cousin - I didn't realise this -

:24:07. > :24:10.that my mother, one of four, was the only one to graduate from high

:24:11. > :24:13.school. The other three barely made it out of the eighth grade because

:24:14. > :24:19.they were poor. And, you know, as I've travelled the country and I

:24:20. > :24:23.look into your eyes, you want to believe, you want to believe again

:24:24. > :24:28.that we can have job security. You want to believe again that wages can

:24:29. > :24:32.rise. You want to believe that your children are going to have

:24:33. > :24:36.ultimately a better America than what we got from our mothers and

:24:37. > :24:51.fathers. That's the great American legacy, that our kids will be better

:24:52. > :24:55.than we are. And I want people in Ohio to know, as I think you do, I

:24:56. > :25:02.want people around the country to know that I understand these tough

:25:03. > :25:07.issues. I grew up in these situations in that little

:25:08. > :25:12.blue-collar town and in my mind's eye is the need to forget the

:25:13. > :25:17.politics, forget the pollsters, forget all the focus groups,

:25:18. > :25:27.because, you see, I represent you and it is my job to look at these

:25:28. > :25:33.situations and these problems and to listen to you and it's my job to go

:25:34. > :25:39.and fix them and if that means, at times, that I have to take some heat

:25:40. > :25:47.well that's just the price of leadership in America, OK? Now, I

:25:48. > :25:54.want you to know the campaign goes on. And I also want you to know that

:25:55. > :25:59.it's been my intention to make you proud. It's been my intention to

:26:00. > :26:04.have young people all across this country watch somebody enter into

:26:05. > :26:09.politics, even though I laboured in obscurity for so long, people

:26:10. > :26:15.counting me out, people in Ohio saying, "Why don't they ever call on

:26:16. > :26:21.him?" OK? We get all that. But we put one foot in front of the other

:26:22. > :26:26.and I want to remind you again tonight that I will not take the low

:26:27. > :26:39.road to the highest office in the land.

:26:40. > :26:52.CHEERING Thank you. You know, the, the

:26:53. > :26:57.challenges that we have... We can go to Washington in the first 100 days,

:26:58. > :27:02.fix these problems with a shock-and-awe agenda that can pass.

:27:03. > :27:05.I think we can rally the people in Washington because I'm going to

:27:06. > :27:09.remind them that before we're Republicans and Democrats, we're

:27:10. > :27:20.Americans and we have an obligation to our children. But I really,

:27:21. > :27:25.really, really believe this and want you to know this and maybe in many

:27:26. > :27:33.respects this is why I've been given a chance to stand here tonight and

:27:34. > :27:37.have earned a victory. You know the Lord's made everybody here special.

:27:38. > :27:43.I've been telling people this all across the country. Nobody, Sir, has

:27:44. > :27:48.ever been made like you, before, and nobody will ever be like you again.

:27:49. > :27:55.And, young lady, you're here at a moment in time, and your job is to

:27:56. > :28:00.find that purpose that you have. Your job is to live life a little

:28:01. > :28:08.bit bigger than yourself. Your job is to be a centre of healing and

:28:09. > :28:14.justice and hope in whatever way we can. If we're a school teacher, we

:28:15. > :28:19.give up money to change lives. If we're a nurse, we work 15 extra

:28:20. > :28:23.minutes when we're dead on our feet because we want to assure that

:28:24. > :28:33.family that things are going to be OK. And if we...

:28:34. > :28:39.APPLAUSE AND CHEERING And if we are a neighbour, that

:28:40. > :28:43.means that widow, who was married for 50 years, who no-one calls any

:28:44. > :28:46.more, you want to change the world? You take her to dinner on Saturday

:28:47. > :28:52.night. She'll wear that dress she hadn't worn in six months. I trust

:28:53. > :29:01.you to do it. You see, what I learned as a boy, what I learned

:29:02. > :29:06.from my mother and father, is that the Spirit of America rests in us.

:29:07. > :29:11.It doesn't rest in a big-time politician, the bigwigs... Look, you

:29:12. > :29:15.hire us to go do the job, plain and simple, to create an environment of

:29:16. > :29:21.economic growth and opportunity, but that's not where our spirit is. Our

:29:22. > :29:25.spirit is in us, believing that, through our efforts, in whichever

:29:26. > :29:31.part of the world that we live, that we can change the world, that we can

:29:32. > :29:35.carve out a better future, that we can realise that those special gifts

:29:36. > :29:38.that were given to each and every one of us in here are something that

:29:39. > :29:43.we can use to heal the world and, you know, we're all part of a giant

:29:44. > :29:49.mosaic, a snapshot in time, all of us here, and it is our job as

:29:50. > :29:54.Americans, our job as people who want to be decent and live good

:29:55. > :29:59.lives, is to dig down and understand that purpose and never underestimate

:30:00. > :30:18.our ability to change the world in which we live!

:30:19. > :30:24.Well, guess what? Tomorrow, I'm going to Philadelphia...

:30:25. > :30:29.CHEERING And them I'm going, I don't know,

:30:30. > :30:37.all over the country, OK? And many of you have travelled around this

:30:38. > :30:42.country trying to help me. You know what? Look... This is all I've got,

:30:43. > :30:47.OK? This is all I've got and all I can say is thank you from the bottom

:30:48. > :30:51.of my heart but I want you to know something. We're going to go. We are

:30:52. > :30:52.going to go all the way to Cleveland and secure the Republican

:30:53. > :31:19.nomination. CHEERING

:31:20. > :31:29.I also want to thank... You know, my father was a Democrat all his life.

:31:30. > :31:33.He was. We had a lot of Democrats who said they didn't like the

:31:34. > :31:39.socialist agenda or the left-wing agenda, or big government. I want to

:31:40. > :31:45.thank them for coming over to this election and putting their

:31:46. > :31:47.confidence in me. Because I think we all know that Conservative

:31:48. > :31:53.principles can work. Common sense can work. The shifting power from

:31:54. > :31:58.that big place in Washington and moving it to where we live to

:31:59. > :32:04.empower us, that's the direction for our country. That's the direction

:32:05. > :32:11.for our country! And, finally, finally... I want you coming out on

:32:12. > :32:15.the road. I want you to continue to do what we've been doing all over

:32:16. > :32:19.this country. I'm getting ready to rent a wagon and we are going to

:32:20. > :32:23.have the wind blow us to the Rocky Mountains and over the mountains to

:32:24. > :32:37.California. Here's what I want you to know... We've got one more trip

:32:38. > :32:40.around Ohio this coming fall, where we will beat Hillary Clinton and I

:32:41. > :32:47.will become the president of the United States! Thank you all very

:32:48. > :32:50.much and God bless you! John Kasich, the two-time governor of

:32:51. > :32:55.Ohio who has won the Republican primary in his bid for the

:32:56. > :33:00.nomination of the Republican Party for the White House. John Kasich

:33:01. > :33:05.saying, I will not take the low road to the highest office in the land,

:33:06. > :33:09.promising that his campaign will continue. His intention is to make

:33:10. > :33:13.the people of Ohio proud and he says if he goes to Washington he will

:33:14. > :33:20.rally the people. John Kasich, who in this year of incredibly bitter,

:33:21. > :33:26.ugly, vulgar campaigning, has assiduously kept a tone that has

:33:27. > :33:30.been civil and optimistic. It paid off to him tonight in a higher,

:33:31. > :33:36.which it has one. It doesn't necessarily mean that we all have to

:33:37. > :33:48.start talking about John Kasich as the Republican Party nominee but it

:33:49. > :33:51.does mean he can stay in the race. The biggest short-term impact is

:33:52. > :33:55.that John Kasich said he had laboured in a security for the first

:33:56. > :33:59.part of this race. I can tell you that John Kasich tomorrow will not

:34:00. > :34:02.be labouring in obscurity. I think it's a big bump, especially with the

:34:03. > :34:07.money class that was behind Marco Rubio. People are clearly looking

:34:08. > :34:10.for an alternative to Donald Trump. John Kasich has approval ratings

:34:11. > :34:17.from the 60s, a very successful track record of reform.

:34:18. > :34:19.Interestingly, he is moving back to a policy description that he

:34:20. > :34:26.patterned in 1994, talking about a 100 day agenda. -- patented. In 1984

:34:27. > :34:32.they ran and enacted. John Kasich will try to tap that sentiment of a

:34:33. > :34:35.first 100 day agenda vision for the country, to try to bring together

:34:36. > :34:39.more of the coalition within what will now be a 3-person race.

:34:40. > :34:43.Something he has spoken about repeatedly, what he would do in the

:34:44. > :34:47.first 100 days if he was president. When you look at the Republican race

:34:48. > :34:54.now, Julian, from a Democrat's point of view, does it look more confusing

:34:55. > :34:58.than it did 24 hours ago? I see a lot of good news and bad news for

:34:59. > :35:02.Republicans. The bad news is in contrast to the Democrats, because

:35:03. > :35:07.no matter what happens there will be a house divided. If Trump doesn't

:35:08. > :35:11.get the nomination he will have 34% Republican voters who will feel at

:35:12. > :35:19.Reeves and could possibly walk. They will feel very angry. -- feel

:35:20. > :35:22.aggrieved. If he gets the nomination up to 40% of the nominations would

:35:23. > :35:28.look to a third party candidate or vote for the Democrats. The

:35:29. > :35:34.Republicans will be divided. If you look at Bernie Sanders' voters, it

:35:35. > :35:38.seems his supporters will go for Hillary Clinton. The good news is

:35:39. > :35:45.now we are getting down to a field of three. Trump still needs 54% of

:35:46. > :35:53.the delegates to get to a majority. He has never been above 50%. He has

:35:54. > :35:57.to get the 54%. That gets increasingly hard for him to do that

:35:58. > :36:03.when you are in a field of three. If John Kasich can't win in Ohio it is

:36:04. > :36:09.really three. So there's a pathway for Ted Cruise, more so than John

:36:10. > :36:13.Kasich. A pathway of Ted Cruz to overtake Trump. He would have to get

:36:14. > :36:22.somewhere in the order of 60% of delegates. But it is plausible, not

:36:23. > :36:25.probable. Stay with me for a second. We will go to the John Kasich

:36:26. > :36:32.headquarters. Gary O'Donoghue is there. You've been speaking to

:36:33. > :36:38.people from Ohio. A good night for a very popular Ohio governor. Yes, he

:36:39. > :36:44.is enormously popular. If you look at the approval ratings, they are in

:36:45. > :36:48.the 60s. If you ask Republicans they are around the 80 mark. He should

:36:49. > :36:52.have won here and he has one and it looks like he will win here by a

:36:53. > :36:59.significant margin. So his first win of the campaign... There is still a

:37:00. > :37:01.long way to go until any sort of nomination, despite him insisting

:37:02. > :37:05.that he will take it all the way to Cleveland. Let me bring in a guest.

:37:06. > :37:10.I've brought in the former senator from new Hampton, who has brought

:37:11. > :37:21.John Kasich into the campaign. How are they feeling tonight? It's a big

:37:22. > :37:28.win, a winner takes all stake. Every delegate matters, especially when it

:37:29. > :37:35.is likely that we will be getting a majority. The convention is the only

:37:36. > :37:41.option for a case -- Kasich nomination? That's the only option

:37:42. > :37:44.for any nomination, you have to get the majority of the delegates. Right

:37:45. > :37:49.now it doesn't look like anyone will have a clear majority and the

:37:50. > :37:53.delegates are going to be asking one question, who should lead the

:37:54. > :37:56.Republican Party in November? Who is best able to beat Hillary Clinton?

:37:57. > :38:02.The governor was very warm about Senator Marco Rubio in his victory

:38:03. > :38:05.speech. Are you expecting an endorsement from him? Are you

:38:06. > :38:13.expecting supporters to come to you now? I think we will receive a lot

:38:14. > :38:15.of support from Mark -- Marco Rubio's supporters. Ideal logically

:38:16. > :38:24.there are similarities. And there is an attempt by both candidates to

:38:25. > :38:32.block the Republican Party. There is no question, Marco Rubio is a

:38:33. > :38:36.younger senator, spoke to many people who previously on the part of

:38:37. > :38:43.the Republican Party. Thanks for a much. The governor will be heading

:38:44. > :38:47.off to Pennsylvania tomorrow. He says he will take it right round the

:38:48. > :38:57.country for the autumn election. Thanks very much. A very good night

:38:58. > :39:00.for John Kasich. The question of course, what happens next? It looks

:39:01. > :39:05.like the convention could be their only chance of seeing the Kasich

:39:06. > :39:10.nomination. That would be what the numbers suggest. Let's hear from

:39:11. > :39:15.Bernie Sanders, who has been speaking as the Democratic opponent

:39:16. > :39:33.to Hillary Clinton. Phoenix, are you ready for a political revolution?

:39:34. > :39:39.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. Are you tired of a handful of

:39:40. > :39:48.billionaires running our economy? CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. Well, if you

:39:49. > :39:59.are you've come to the right place! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. You know,

:40:00. > :40:04.what excites me so much as I go around the country is to see the

:40:05. > :40:10.incredible energy of hundreds of thousands of people who love this

:40:11. > :40:26.country but no we can do so much better. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. We

:40:27. > :40:36.started this campaign at 3% in the national polls we have come along

:40:37. > :40:44.way in ten months CHEERING AND APPLAUSE.

:40:45. > :40:53.And the reason we have done as well as we have, the reason that we have

:40:54. > :40:58.defied all expectations is that we are doing something very radical in

:40:59. > :41:09.American politics. We are telling the truth! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE.

:41:10. > :41:12.Bernie Sanders, speaking in Phoenix, Arizona. The relevance of

:41:13. > :41:17.the location is that the Democratic primary is next Tuesday in Arizona

:41:18. > :41:23.and Bernie Sanders clearly not dropping out of this race. Julian

:41:24. > :41:28.Ebstein, Democratic strategist, he would drop out of the race and to

:41:29. > :41:31.some extent until he does Hillary Clinton have to stay focused on the

:41:32. > :41:37.primary campaign. She can't afford to dismiss his supporters by making

:41:38. > :41:41.it look as if she assumes she is the nominee? That's very well said and

:41:42. > :41:47.that's exactly right. In the past two or three minutes, my texts are

:41:48. > :41:52.blowing up from Bernie Sanders supporters saying that in the next

:41:53. > :42:00.seven contests, all Western contests, Arizona, Utah, Washington,

:42:01. > :42:03.Alaska, Hawaii, there are all Pol -- they are all more plausible for

:42:04. > :42:11.Bernie Sanders. He is likely to stay in the race. What about the fact

:42:12. > :42:14.that we can't dismiss his voters? That means she has to consolidate

:42:15. > :42:19.the Democratic vote. I mean, it is an unfortunate in that both parties

:42:20. > :42:24.have been moving towards the extremes. The Democrats have been

:42:25. > :42:29.moving for the right. That means she has to placate a lot of what Bernie

:42:30. > :42:35.Sanders' positions have been, whether it is regulating industry,

:42:36. > :42:41.healthcare, trade, a whole host of issues. She really wants to be

:42:42. > :42:44.moving back to the political centre. So there is that issue for her. She

:42:45. > :42:50.does have to keep in mind the two problems she has right now are

:42:51. > :42:57.intensity, her voters aren't as intense as Bernie, and trust. Trust

:42:58. > :43:00.isn't the e-mails but it is more about shifting positions on things

:43:01. > :43:07.like trade, same-sex marriage over the years, keystone pipeline, those

:43:08. > :43:11.kinds of issues. The changing of positions is a pink people some

:43:12. > :43:16.questions. So she has to make sure that those robins don't get worse.

:43:17. > :43:21.That said, Bernie Sanders has to win 57% of the delegates and there just

:43:22. > :43:24.doesn't... That does not seem to be mathematically possible. The longer

:43:25. > :43:29.the Democratic race continues without he wriggled -- Hillary

:43:30. > :43:33.Clinton being able to say, IMO nominee and this is what I will make

:43:34. > :43:37.of Donald Trump and here is my vice presidential pick, how much easier

:43:38. > :43:43.does it make for Republicans to take on once the general election to get

:43:44. > :43:46.going? -- Iama nominee. This is good news. I am happy to have Bernie

:43:47. > :43:49.Sanders in the race as long as possible. He has the ability to

:43:50. > :43:53.fundamentally reply deliberate plan each his coffers with the touch of a

:43:54. > :43:58.quicker, meaning he has a massive online fundraising database. --

:43:59. > :44:04.click. It is possible he will have more cash on hand than secretary

:44:05. > :44:07.Clinton at the end. This campaign isn't going away, so she can't take

:44:08. > :44:12.on Donald Trump just as you would like to. Four years ago President

:44:13. > :44:16.Obama made the decision to defy Mitt Romney early on in June, before we

:44:17. > :44:21.have the financial resources to fight back. I don't think that will

:44:22. > :44:25.be the case. I think the Bernie Sanders campaign will occupy Hillary

:44:26. > :44:29.Clinton for quite sometime. And, meanwhile, our party will continue

:44:30. > :44:34.to drift forward... As if you're party didn't have problems enough!

:44:35. > :44:38.We have plenty of problems on both sides. We have a lot of anger on the

:44:39. > :44:44.left and right and we are trying to sort it out. We have to go to trump

:44:45. > :44:49.headquarters. Jon Sopel is there. ABC News is calling Illinois for

:44:50. > :44:55.Donald Trump, so another win for him. But the loss in Ohio stops him

:44:56. > :44:59.from being able to say tonight, I am the Republican Party's nominee. He

:45:00. > :45:04.hasn't got the numbers tonight. And the other thing I was reflecting on

:45:05. > :45:09.is that if you think of since last June Donald Trump has totally

:45:10. > :45:13.dominated the sort of media narrative, the story. He's been at

:45:14. > :45:19.the centre of every single news cycle. I just wonder whether

:45:20. > :45:23.tonight, rather than talking about the likely wins that Donald Trump

:45:24. > :45:29.will not up, we will be talking about the loss and focusing on that

:45:30. > :45:38.and saying how much it, Kate Donald Trump's path towards the Republican

:45:39. > :45:44.nomination. -- how much it affects. We heard John Kasich saying he would

:45:45. > :45:47.be right there until Cleveland. Ted Cruz isn't going anywhere. I wonder

:45:48. > :45:53.whether the stuff that's been a fantasy of political geeks, the

:45:54. > :46:00.contested convention, is actually going to become reality. With this

:46:01. > :46:04.-- us all looking at textbooks to figure out what it means and what

:46:05. > :46:07.rules will apply. In the meantime, huge excitement in this ballroom

:46:08. > :46:12.where Donald Trump is due to speak in a few minutes. Remember, two

:46:13. > :46:16.weeks ago, I spoke to you and said that where we were was like a mini

:46:17. > :46:28.version. This ballroom that Donald Trump is due to speak in is like

:46:29. > :46:31.Versailles times two. You heard John Kasich, he had kind words for Marco

:46:32. > :46:36.Rubio, who has dropped out. That's the other big story. Any chance we

:46:37. > :46:42.will hear Donald Trump? With similarly kind words?

:46:43. > :46:49.Little sweaty mako? It is hard when you have said all of these

:46:50. > :46:58.extraordinary things to do is walk back from them and say we were great

:46:59. > :47:03.howls all the time -- pals. He was standing shoulder to shoulder with

:47:04. > :47:07.Ben Carson, and he came in with a tongue lashing various times from

:47:08. > :47:12.Donald Trump. It is possible. It has to be in Donald Trump's interest to

:47:13. > :47:15.promote himself as the unity candidate any person that the

:47:16. > :47:21.Republican Party has to rally around. That will play well in

:47:22. > :47:27.certain circles. Whether the Republican group can believe it has

:47:28. > :47:30.to be believed. As soon as Donald Trump takes to the stage in the

:47:31. > :47:36.Palace of Versailles, will come to you. Let's go to Texas for the Ted

:47:37. > :47:41.Cruz campaign. What are they making of the Ted Cruz campaign? Marco

:47:42. > :47:44.Rubio dropping out, John Kasich winning in Ohio, not great news that

:47:45. > :47:52.M. And the potential fallout from that? -- not great news there. The

:47:53. > :47:55.night is young for people at this Ted Cruz event because their men has

:47:56. > :48:00.not turned up yet. He has not won any delegates, but because they are

:48:01. > :48:05.watching some of the races yet to declare, for example North Carolina,

:48:06. > :48:10.which in the count so far as Donald Trump ahead, but in some counties

:48:11. > :48:15.from what we're seeing so far, Ted Cruz is ahead. He could pick up some

:48:16. > :48:22.delegates there tonight. Also Missouri, they have only counted 16%

:48:23. > :48:27.so far, but we are only seeing a two point difference between Ted Cruz

:48:28. > :48:30.and Donald Trump. These are places they are watching very closely

:48:31. > :48:34.because his strategy has always been to pick up delegates wherever he

:48:35. > :48:41.can. In answer to your other point, the reaction to Rubio dropping out,

:48:42. > :48:43.people were disappointed, and not just disappointed because he is

:48:44. > :48:49.dropping out but because he stayed in the race for so long. Some people

:48:50. > :48:55.here I spoke to say all he did was actually pull the anyone Donald

:48:56. > :49:00.Trump vote apart and should've gotten out way before -- but Donald

:49:01. > :49:07.Trump. They asked why didn't he endorse Ted Cruz, why did he does

:49:08. > :49:10.make a concession speech, with people hoping he should have come

:49:11. > :49:14.out and back to Ted Cruz. We have had a statement from Ted Cruz on

:49:15. > :49:18.Marco Rubio dropping out, and he said Marco Rubio was a friend and

:49:19. > :49:23.colleague who run an optimistic campaign and make this primary might

:49:24. > :49:30.struggle. I'm not sure Ted Cruz has many friends amongst his colleagues

:49:31. > :49:35.in the Senate. That is the part of his problem. He is the guy up

:49:36. > :49:41.against a Trump and has had the most wins, but it has hurt him, the fact

:49:42. > :49:44.that the establishment of the Republican Party has found it so

:49:45. > :49:48.difficult to rally around a person who I don't think I have ever met

:49:49. > :49:52.anyone in Washington who is as disliked as Ted Cruz is. Let's just

:49:53. > :49:57.remember, and this is how curious this race has become, Ted Cruz has

:49:58. > :50:05.always been an antiestablishment politician. He was part of the tea

:50:06. > :50:08.party movement before, and we are now faced with a situation where he

:50:09. > :50:12.could be seen as the likely establishment candidate. He doesn't

:50:13. > :50:16.have as many friends in the party as Marco Rubio, perhaps, but on the

:50:17. > :50:21.ground, and I have travelled to nearly a dozen states since the

:50:22. > :50:25.primary season kicked off, he does have a very dedicated and loyal

:50:26. > :50:29.support base, far more than I ever saw with Marco Rubio. People are

:50:30. > :50:33.passionate about Ted Cruz. What is interesting is the kind of people he

:50:34. > :50:40.attracts, conservative evangelical Christians, they are riposte by

:50:41. > :50:45.Donald Trump. -- riposte. Spoke to one woman who is a huge Ted Cruz

:50:46. > :50:49.supporter and she said she would find it difficult to vote Republican

:50:50. > :50:53.vote at all if Donald Trump and tapping the eventual nominee. While

:50:54. > :50:56.Tom Cruise does not have many political friends, he certainly has

:50:57. > :51:00.more on the ground support their Marco Rubio who had plenty of people

:51:01. > :51:06.in the establishment behind him -- Ted Cruz will stop great point.

:51:07. > :51:11.Perhaps not the year to have friends in the Republican establishment. I

:51:12. > :51:18.guess not. It didn't do Marco Rubio any favours. I think he ran a

:51:19. > :51:24.credible race, and is a very talented politician, but Ted Cruz,

:51:25. > :51:32.interestingly... It is not the year in which the chosen candidate

:51:33. > :51:38.receives many favours. We are down to three now, and certainly the

:51:39. > :51:43.anti- Washington sentiment Ted Cruz is paying two is important. I'd in a

:51:44. > :51:47.dose of getting a Supreme Court nominee, with rumours that the

:51:48. > :51:52.president may be moving forward on that front, Ted Cruz is a

:51:53. > :51:57.constitutional conservative and clapped for different justices. This

:51:58. > :52:07.could be another angle you can see him coming out trying to capture

:52:08. > :52:13.some of that support base -- clerked. He is not going anywhere.

:52:14. > :52:18.He has a text to donate button up on the stage, so he clearly needs to

:52:19. > :52:22.raise money to continue to compete. He will be on the way to Cleveland.

:52:23. > :52:26.We should talk about the Supreme Court nomination. We are getting

:52:27. > :52:30.reports that the President is planning to announce his nominee on

:52:31. > :52:38.Wednesday. How much will that impact the race on both sides? As if we

:52:39. > :52:48.didn't have enough already? Part of the thinking is that one of the

:52:49. > :52:55.candidates may even get support from Republicans. The question is whether

:52:56. > :53:00.that will politically stimulate a strong showing at the next election,

:53:01. > :53:04.so I think the politics of that will be interesting. It focuses minds

:53:05. > :53:14.about the Republican and Democratic side about what is at stake in this

:53:15. > :53:18.campaign. It motivates both bases. I think, and I'm not alone in this,

:53:19. > :53:25.the Ted Cruz will be the nominee. And the reason is because of two

:53:26. > :53:28.numbers. 65% and 54%. 65% of voters in the general election have a

:53:29. > :53:32.negative view of Donald Trump, which is two out of three American voters.

:53:33. > :53:36.That is in three different national polls, and that is consistent.

:53:37. > :53:41.Republicans understand that. No national candidate has ever come

:53:42. > :53:49.back from negatives of 65% ever. That is the first. 54%, Donald Trump

:53:50. > :53:55.still needs that to get the nomination. I think we will have a

:53:56. > :53:59.broken convention, and my prediction is that Donald Trump goes in with a

:54:00. > :54:03.plurality not a majority of delegates. And I think people on the

:54:04. > :54:07.second ballot will say this is not possible. The problem is then you

:54:08. > :54:11.have a divided Republican Party coming out of the convention, and I

:54:12. > :54:15.don't know if you can put Humpty Dumpty back together. The satiated

:54:16. > :54:19.press has just called North Carolina for Donald Trump, so that is another

:54:20. > :54:25.win for him tonight -- associated press. Ohio, Florida, North

:54:26. > :54:33.Carolina, but we don't have Missouri yet. He lost Ohio, but let's go to

:54:34. > :54:39.the yearly campaign headquarters. I imagine the party quieting down now

:54:40. > :54:44.-- Hillary Clinton campaign headquarters. Listening to Bernie

:54:45. > :54:48.Sanders earlier, he is not going anywhere. He is getting ready for

:54:49. > :54:55.that Arizona primary and not giving up. Absolutely. The parties he has

:54:56. > :54:59.wrapped up. It was very jubilant. Hillary Clinton very quickly

:55:00. > :55:05.pivoting to a general election campaign speech, pushing back

:55:06. > :55:10.against Donald Trump's rhetoric. But she did not declare an outright

:55:11. > :55:13.victory and say I and the nominee. It is now impossible for Bernie

:55:14. > :55:19.Sanders to become the Democratic nominee. She just said we are edging

:55:20. > :55:22.closer to the finish line. That is because Mr Sanders himself has said

:55:23. > :55:26.he is not going anywhere and wants to stay in the race. She needs to

:55:27. > :55:30.make sure she doesn't alienate his supporters as this contest goes on.

:55:31. > :55:35.But she had a huge note this evening. I will tell you one

:55:36. > :55:38.indication she fills confident that it is almost over is that she will

:55:39. > :55:42.spend the next week fundraising and taking some downtime. No events

:55:43. > :55:46.tomorrow or over the weekend. Then she will travel out West. The other

:55:47. > :55:50.thing she has demonstrated this evening with their big win in

:55:51. > :55:54.Florida is her grip on the Latinos vote, which will be crucial in

:55:55. > :55:58.November in the general election. Then the key state of Ohio, this was

:55:59. > :56:02.the state where Bernie Sanders had to win to show he was picking up on

:56:03. > :56:06.that momentum he had with Michigan last week with the surprise win. He

:56:07. > :56:13.did not win there, he lost quite big. It is difficult now for Bernie

:56:14. > :56:18.Sanders to find this path towards the nomination that his aides still

:56:19. > :56:22.insisted has, et cetera and the enthusiasm he continues to get from

:56:23. > :56:26.young supporters will be beneficial for the Democratic party if Hillary

:56:27. > :56:36.Clinton is the nominee. She will need those young supporters to turn

:56:37. > :56:41.out in force in November. A well earned rest for her. We are still

:56:42. > :56:45.waiting for Donald Trump, who will take the stage soon. You can see up

:56:46. > :56:50.on the stage he has somebody starting to introduce him. John

:56:51. > :56:56.called it the Palace of Versailles. It does look incredibly glitzy. A

:56:57. > :57:00.nice place to have a campaign headquarters. I want to pick up on

:57:01. > :57:04.what Tim was saying about Bernie Sanders staying in the race. You

:57:05. > :57:09.said your Twitter feed was exploding in getting messages from Bernie

:57:10. > :57:13.Sanders supporters saying this is looking more favourable. They don't

:57:14. > :57:16.really think you can take the nomination from Hillary Clinton at

:57:17. > :57:26.this point to there? I don't think there is a chance. What are they

:57:27. > :57:33.hoping for? -- do there? I think there is a possibility he can win in

:57:34. > :57:39.places where there is less diversity. Hillary Clinton did well

:57:40. > :57:53.with Hispanic registered in Fargo. -- Hispanic voters. I think they

:57:54. > :57:58.continue to keep the intensity and go on to the convention with a large

:57:59. > :58:04.number of delegates. This is all about bargaining. I will stop you

:58:05. > :58:11.right there. Donald Trump is taking to the stage. Then she very much,

:58:12. > :58:18.everybody. This was an amazing evening. -- thank you. They just

:58:19. > :58:24.announced North Carolina. I don't know if they have even announced

:58:25. > :58:28.Illinois yet, but we are leading by a lot, so I think they will announce

:58:29. > :58:35.it. Florida was so amazing. I want to thank our friends. They have been

:58:36. > :58:39.so incredible. We picked up nine delegates this morning. I heard

:58:40. > :58:50.early in the morning nine delegates, that is a lot. I just wanted to

:58:51. > :58:55.thank the governor, a great guy. A very nice start of the day, that I

:58:56. > :58:59.can tell you. Many things have been happening over the last short period

:59:00. > :59:07.of time. CNN were very nice and came up with the poll saying 49%. We just

:59:08. > :59:12.had one from the Economist which came at 53%, and it is interesting

:59:13. > :59:16.because I was watching the news a little while ago and is one of the

:59:17. > :59:22.commentators, who I am not particularly fond of, but those

:59:23. > :59:30.minor details, said but Donald Trump doesn't get over 50%. I met 43, 45,

:59:31. > :59:34.and according to the Economist now 53, and I have to explain to these

:59:35. > :59:40.people they don't understand basic physics, basic mathematics, basic

:59:41. > :59:43.whenever you want to call it. When I don't get over 50, we are for

:59:44. > :59:53.people, right? Do you understand that? -- four people. I had 53%, and

:59:54. > :59:58.it is with four people. That is an amazing achievement when you can get

:59:59. > :00:05.over 50%. Someday they will understand. Sunday when we'd take it

:00:06. > :00:09.all, they will understand, but it is really ridiculous -- Sunday when we

:00:10. > :00:23.take it all. I want to thank my family. They have been working so

:00:24. > :00:27.hard. They have been amazing. Ivanka is about ready to have a baby. We

:00:28. > :00:32.have been thinking about that now for a little while, she has been so

:00:33. > :00:38.helpful and Jared has been amazing. It has been just great.

:00:39. > :00:48.I want to thank Baron and I never see my Baron! It is a little tough

:00:49. > :00:54.when you are going away... APPLAUSE. He goes, when are you coming home,

:00:55. > :01:03.Daddy?! I say, into and a half weeks. Yesterday, I went to a --

:01:04. > :01:09.Ohio and we had an incredible crowd. We had so many great people. Some

:01:10. > :01:14.day in the not too distant future, if I win, otherwise it is not going

:01:15. > :01:17.to happen, but Apple and all of these great companies will be making

:01:18. > :01:27.their product in the United States, not in China, Vietnam... APPLAUSE.

:01:28. > :01:31.And we are not going to be losing our companies, which are leaving our

:01:32. > :01:44.country rapidly, whether it is a condition in, whether it is Ford, I

:01:45. > :01:48.was in Cleveland and Eaton Coirp are leaving -- Eaton Corp. I am

:01:49. > :01:55.disgusted. It is gross incompetence at the highest level. We should not

:01:56. > :01:58.allow it to happen. Pfizer, great pharmaceutical company, they are

:01:59. > :02:02.going to Ireland. You have corporate inversions, people can't get their

:02:03. > :02:08.money back into the country because the politicians can't get along,

:02:09. > :02:13.they can't make a deal. Everybody agrees Democrat and Republican.

:02:14. > :02:18.Everybody agrees the money should come back. There is too at a half

:02:19. > :02:22.trillion dollars out of this country that everyone agrees should be here

:02:23. > :02:27.-- two and a half trillion dollars. For two years we've not been able to

:02:28. > :02:32.make a deal. We could make a deal. There is an example of something

:02:33. > :02:35.that you could do it. If I sat down with a view of the senators and a

:02:36. > :02:38.few congressmen, you could make a deal on that in ten minutes if you

:02:39. > :02:43.knew what you are doing because everybody wants to do it. Companies

:02:44. > :02:47.are leaving the country to get their money, not only because taxes are

:02:48. > :02:50.too high, which we are going to lower, by the way, but countries are

:02:51. > :02:54.leaving our country in order to going get money that is their money,

:02:55. > :02:59.because there is no way of bringing it in. So we've got a long way to go

:03:00. > :03:04.but I think at some point it is going to be done. This has been very

:03:05. > :03:08.exciting, this whole process. We started, I was one of 17 people,

:03:09. > :03:15.senators, governors, I've had such great support. Doctor Ben Carson the

:03:16. > :03:22.other date endorsed us. Great guy -- day. APPLAUSE. Wonderful man. Chris

:03:23. > :03:35.Christie endorsed us. That was so incredible. And today it came Pam

:03:36. > :03:41.Bondy. She endorsed us. She is a truly wonderful woman. The Joshi has

:03:42. > :03:47.done in Florida is incredible. -- and the support. Paul Ryan called me

:03:48. > :03:52.the other day. Tremendous call. I spoke with Mitch McCall. We had a

:03:53. > :04:01.great conversation. The fact is, we have to bring our party together. We

:04:02. > :04:04.have to bring it together. APPLAUSE. We have something happening that

:04:05. > :04:08.actually makes the Republican Party probably the biggest political story

:04:09. > :04:13.anywhere in the world. Everybody is writing about it. All over the world

:04:14. > :04:18.they are talking about it. Millions of people are coming to vote. This

:04:19. > :04:21.was an example of it today. I am looking at the polling booths. I am

:04:22. > :04:28.looking at the polling groups around the country. The lines are four or

:04:29. > :04:32.five or six blocks long. One woman has been working on the polls for 40

:04:33. > :04:39.years and she said, we would have two or three people here and now

:04:40. > :04:45.look at the line. The line was really long, it was five deep and

:04:46. > :04:49.long. We have a great opportunity. The people that are voting are

:04:50. > :04:55.Democrats coming in, independence coming in, and very importantly

:04:56. > :05:04.people that never voted before -- Independents. It is an incredible

:05:05. > :05:10.thing. APPLAUSE. I want to pay my respects to plod payment. Sarah was

:05:11. > :05:17.here. She was incredible -- Tod Palin. Everybody loves her. He was

:05:18. > :05:33.in a very bad accident. He is tough. He will be fine. I want to pay my

:05:34. > :05:39.respects. Our thing when we started. Please, sitdown everybody.

:05:40. > :05:54.We give. You understand. I am looking at all these people.

:05:55. > :06:01.APPLAUSE. Cory. Good job, Cory. And our whole squad. When this began,

:06:02. > :06:05.Milania and I, we said, we've got to do it and she has been so supportive

:06:06. > :06:09.and it has been amazing. We have to do it. We came down the escalator

:06:10. > :06:15.and it was about trade and borders and what happened is quite quickly

:06:16. > :06:20.after that. I shot right to the top of the polls. I have been leading

:06:21. > :06:25.since the beginning almost. Most people said I would

:06:26. > :06:28.since the beginning almost. Most people said I never run. That I am

:06:29. > :06:35.having a good time. I mean, I am having a very nice time. But you

:06:36. > :06:44.know what? I am working very hard. Leave me, there is great anger.

:06:45. > :06:48.APPLAUSE. . -- believe me. One person asked me if there is anger

:06:49. > :06:51.and I said, no, of course, we love the way it is working. We love the

:06:52. > :06:57.deal you did with Iran giving them $150 billion. We love the trade

:06:58. > :07:03.deals, they are wonderful, losing $500 billion a year with China. We

:07:04. > :07:07.lose $58 billion a year in terms of imbalance. It is a total in balance.

:07:08. > :07:11.We don't make good deals any more. We don't win wars any more. They

:07:12. > :07:16.asked if there is anger from the people? There is anger. They are not

:07:17. > :07:20.angry people but they want to see the country properly run. They want

:07:21. > :07:23.to see borders and good healthcare. They want to see things properly

:07:24. > :07:28.taken care of. They want our military rebuilt. Our military is in

:07:29. > :07:37.a very bad state. They want it rebuilt. Very, very importantly,

:07:38. > :07:42.they want a second amendment protected and protected strongly and

:07:43. > :07:49.that's going to happen! APPLAUSE. And you know what they want so

:07:50. > :07:55.badly? They want our veterans treated better. They are treated so

:07:56. > :08:02.badly! So, we started, and something happened called Paris. Paris

:08:03. > :08:06.happened. And Paris was a disaster. There have been many disasters but

:08:07. > :08:10.it was Paris. And then we had a case in Los Angeles where it was in

:08:11. > :08:16.California where 14 young people were killed. And it just goes on and

:08:17. > :08:23.on and on. And what happened with me is this whole run brought a whole

:08:24. > :08:26.new meaning. Not just borders and trade deals. We will bring the best

:08:27. > :08:33.trade deals using. We have such good trade deals from the smartest people

:08:34. > :08:35.in business. These people are going to be negotiating our deals. We have

:08:36. > :08:40.the best business people in the world. We are going to have such

:08:41. > :08:44.great deal. We will do so well with trade. We will do so well on the

:08:45. > :08:49.border. But it took on a whole new meaning. The many was very simple.

:08:50. > :08:53.We need protection in the country and that's going to happen. All of a

:08:54. > :08:58.sudden the poll numbers shot up. I am very proud to be part of this. I

:08:59. > :09:01.think we are going to go and we are going to do a lot of trips over the

:09:02. > :09:04.next month and I think we are going to have a great victory. More

:09:05. > :09:07.importantly than anything else we are going to start winning again.

:09:08. > :09:21.This country is going to start winning again. We don't win any

:09:22. > :09:24.more. APPLAUSE. We don't win with our military. We can't beat ISIS. We

:09:25. > :09:37.are going to knock the hell out of them. We don't win with trade with

:09:38. > :09:43.China, everybody, Japan, Mexico, India. We don't win in trade. We are

:09:44. > :09:46.going to win in trade, we are going to make a country rich and great

:09:47. > :09:48.again and we need to reach in order to make the great. I am sorry to

:09:49. > :10:05.tell you. -- the rich. APPLAUSE. So, I am going forward. We had a

:10:06. > :10:10.fantastic evening. I would never have thought this could have

:10:11. > :10:17.happened. We could level one result, possibly which could be successful

:10:18. > :10:21.or so. To win the stately won and to win with those margins. This is my

:10:22. > :10:29.second state, Florida. To win with that kind of number is so great.

:10:30. > :10:34.APPLAUSE. And I have to say it, I have to say it, number one, I want

:10:35. > :10:39.to congratulate Marco Rubio on having run a really tight campaign.

:10:40. > :10:46.He is staffed and smart and he has a great future. -- he is tough and

:10:47. > :10:49.smart. I have to say, no one has ever in the history of politics

:10:50. > :10:57.received the kind of negative advertising that I have. Record,

:10:58. > :11:06.record, record. Mostly false, I wouldn't say 100%, but about 90%.

:11:07. > :11:09.Mostly false, vicious, horrible. They say it was 18 million the first

:11:10. > :11:16.week, meaning last week, and 25 million. It ended up to over 40

:11:17. > :11:19.million dollars. You explain it to me because I can't. My numbers went

:11:20. > :11:32.up. I don't understand it. Nobody understands it. My numbers went up.

:11:33. > :11:39.It has been an interesting experience. Last week Adam Scott won

:11:40. > :11:43.at Trump National. Adam, who is a great guy. I am watching and we have

:11:44. > :11:46.TV screens all over and we are down at this gorgeous green and

:11:47. > :11:54.everything is working beautifully and then a commercial comes on. The

:11:55. > :11:56.worst commercial. I am in this wonderful room with Cadillac and

:11:57. > :12:01.wonderful executives and I am saying, look over there, you don't

:12:02. > :12:06.want to watch this, isn't the grass beautiful? Look, don't watch. And

:12:07. > :12:11.they came in waves, one after another after another. And it was

:12:12. > :12:18.brutal. And then Adam Scott comes, this handsome kid from Australia,

:12:19. > :12:21.one of the greatest golfers in the world, makes an unbelievable shot to

:12:22. > :12:25.win. And we are giving the award and just before we break for a

:12:26. > :12:29.commercial, we will be right back with the great champion from

:12:30. > :12:35.Australia, Adam Scott. And here is the commercial and I said, no! And

:12:36. > :13:01.it was. Two of them! What a day that was. What a disaster!

:13:02. > :13:06.I want to congratulate everybody. This is a really interesting

:13:07. > :13:10.process. It is an amazing process. It is very tough. By the end if you

:13:11. > :13:14.can get to the end, you can handle a lot of things, including pressure.

:13:15. > :13:19.There is nothing like it. Lies and deceit, viciousness Thomas Bosc

:13:20. > :13:26.asked in reporters, horrible people. -- vicious, horrible reporters.

:13:27. > :13:31.There are some disgusting people. Some are nice. I just want to say,

:13:32. > :13:36.we will go forward and we will win. More importantly, we will win for

:13:37. > :13:40.the country. We will win and we are not stopping. We will have great

:13:41. > :13:50.victories for our country. Thank you very much, everybody. Thank you.

:13:51. > :13:55.Donald Trump speaking in his resort down in south Florida. We are going

:13:56. > :14:03.to win, win, win and we will do it for the country. He won in Florida,

:14:04. > :14:08.Illinois, North Carolina. We are waiting for the result in Missouri.

:14:09. > :14:12.He did not win in Ohio. He said they have to bring the party together. He

:14:13. > :14:17.talked about trade and how America was being beaten by China, Japan,

:14:18. > :14:21.Vietnam and what a disaster the Iran deal has been for the US. And then

:14:22. > :14:24.at one point he briefly congratulated Marco Rubio and this

:14:25. > :14:29.was an extraordinary moment when he said that Marco Rubio was tough,

:14:30. > :14:33.smart and he said he has a great future. Not quite the sweaty little

:14:34. > :14:38.Marco Rubio he has been talking about for the last couple of weeks.

:14:39. > :14:42.I have Phil Mercer with me in the studio, he is a Republican

:14:43. > :14:47.strategist. When you hear Donald Trump, is he the man that can pivot

:14:48. > :14:52.from the incendiary campaign it has been to winning over voters in the

:14:53. > :14:57.centre of American politics? I think the jury is out. He is pivoting back

:14:58. > :15:02.to a general election message. In some ways Clinton was trying to do

:15:03. > :15:05.similar things on the left. Obviously, Mr Trump wants to talk

:15:06. > :15:11.about bringing the party together. He does it in a very clear way. His

:15:12. > :15:15.themes are not left to the imagination. It is simple, black and

:15:16. > :15:22.white, win or not win, make American great. -- make America great. It has

:15:23. > :15:26.cut through the clutter. Even if the speech you listened to was all over

:15:27. > :15:32.the place, relative to the topics at hand. He has a lot of work to do.

:15:33. > :15:37.There is a lot of meeting to be done to unify this party. The mathematics

:15:38. > :15:43.of tonight are in form. He will end with over $6 million. When you look

:15:44. > :15:47.at the Clinton campaign and we were talking about this when Donald Trump

:15:48. > :15:54.was speaking, it is extraordinary how he has stayed on message. We are

:15:55. > :15:58.either winners or losers. It is terrific or terrible. It is black or

:15:59. > :16:07.white. There are has been a real appeal to the simplicity of the

:16:08. > :16:17.Trott message. He tapped into the anger a lot of people feel --

:16:18. > :16:22.Trump. The country might be the demographics being passed by, he

:16:23. > :16:26.legitimises the anger. You can pivot to the centre if things are true, if

:16:27. > :16:32.people don't know you yet, if you leave yourself room with the

:16:33. > :16:40.political position. Or if you are unfavourable -- your unfavourables

:16:41. > :16:49.aren't high. His political positions have taken... They have been very

:16:50. > :16:57.extreme. Their negativity, you can't pivot to the centre. Look at trade,

:16:58. > :17:00.look at tax, for example. On certain economic issues he is quite

:17:01. > :17:07.centrist. You could say he was a Democrat.

:17:08. > :17:17.The Labour unions and Democrats have been anti- free trade, popular

:17:18. > :17:26.movements, and that could possibly play well in Michigan and the

:17:27. > :17:34.rustbelt. Very few places that Donald Trump beat Clinton. Very few

:17:35. > :17:41.places he is doing better than Clinton. I do not think it is

:17:42. > :17:50.possible, with the kind of negative rating he has... You have to also

:17:51. > :17:56.remember that Hillary Clinton goes into the election with her set of

:17:57. > :18:02.negatives. We have a potential that two major party candidates, leaving

:18:03. > :18:10.aside what could happen if we have a contested chaos in Cleveland... If

:18:11. > :18:16.Donald Trump won Ohio and Florida, we could have said he is on his way

:18:17. > :18:26.to being the nominee. After tonight, not winning Ohio, what are the

:18:27. > :18:35.chances of the convention? High you then a week or two ago? Yes, I think

:18:36. > :18:44.so. Had Donald Trump defeated both John Kasich and Marco Rubio, but in

:18:45. > :18:54.a two person raise, the crews versus Donald Trump changes. It could have

:18:55. > :19:01.led to Donald Trump coming in just shy for the nomination. With a 3-way

:19:02. > :19:08.race, and a more moderate series of states, if John Kasich can win in a

:19:09. > :19:24.few places and cruise can continue to grow, -- Cruz, he could... I

:19:25. > :19:31.think it is more likely than not. It would be the most interesting news

:19:32. > :19:45.event in politics. The number to watch is 45. If Donald Trump has

:19:46. > :19:55.eight plurality of over 45%. The fee is 42 -43% and Cruz is the upper 30%

:19:56. > :20:03.then anything goes. I think that is where we are headed. I tended to

:20:04. > :20:13.agree. In a scenario where you come in with 1200 but no conclusion, what

:20:14. > :20:27.will be interesting to watch will be the manoeuvrings are a week prior to

:20:28. > :20:34.the convention. Back knife warfare that you have ever seen in our

:20:35. > :20:41.party. What do we have to do from now until early June to figure out

:20:42. > :20:48.whether we are going to have 28 contested convention? We have had a

:20:49. > :20:55.compact and accelerated period of time... A few... Exactly. We work

:20:56. > :21:02.our way through the upper midwest... Running for president of

:21:03. > :21:08.the United States is the most gruelling operation by far, it is

:21:09. > :21:15.brutal. They all need a break. For the candidates and the campaign

:21:16. > :21:24.staff. What Donald Carr has in his favour, -- Donald Trump. He has air

:21:25. > :21:30.planes... And he has had it all alone. He does not have to raise

:21:31. > :21:37.money. He is raising effect clip of money online, he has air planes, he

:21:38. > :21:45.can travel back to Florida and New York. That is a huge advantage.

:21:46. > :21:56.Frankly, his staff is very, very small. In New York City, 5-6 people.

:21:57. > :22:00.It is a very, very different presidential campaign. The process

:22:01. > :22:05.slows down a little bit and it winds its way through a more moderate

:22:06. > :22:12.serious of states that have proportionality coming into play.

:22:13. > :22:18.The process will slow down in terms of acceleration so when we get to

:22:19. > :22:29.California and New Jersey, that is where we will see this figured out.

:22:30. > :22:38.Back to Florida. A lot that he talked about. Marco Rubio? Yes,

:22:39. > :22:44.well, I thought it was interesting that he mentioned Marco Rubio but

:22:45. > :22:51.did not say a word about John Kasich. He said Marco Rubio fought a

:22:52. > :22:58.tough campaign and had a good future ahead of him. Having now been at

:22:59. > :23:03.Donald Trump events in California, Texas, are you bad, New Hampshire,

:23:04. > :23:12.South Carolina, this is the most low-key I heard him. I thought he

:23:13. > :23:19.sounded tired, finally? Yes, he was going to take questions from the

:23:20. > :23:24.press. There was a scrum over their with people shouting questions but

:23:25. > :23:31.he just walked out. He seemed slightly deflated, actually. Maybe I

:23:32. > :23:39.reading too much into mood music but normally, what you get from him,

:23:40. > :23:43.this was low. Maybe a recognition that this was going to be a tougher

:23:44. > :23:48.fight through to the convention in Cleveland. I thought it was

:23:49. > :23:53.interesting that at the beginning he talked about how exhausting and

:23:54. > :24:00.tiring it is to run for US President. He knows he's going to

:24:01. > :24:06.come out of super Tuesday with the nomination. It makes a big

:24:07. > :24:17.difference going forward. He had to give a much more nuanced message to

:24:18. > :24:23.date. -- today. I did not think he was proclaiming... He said the

:24:24. > :24:28.Republican Party had to unite at he was more less assuming that he was

:24:29. > :24:35.the nominee two weeks ago but I did not sense that this evening. It has

:24:36. > :24:40.still a long way to run, it is a three horse race I involved in and

:24:41. > :24:52.it will take longer than I originally thought. Probably his

:24:53. > :24:58.original thought was he would win in Ohio but did not. What does Donald

:24:59. > :25:06.Trump do now apart from getting a nice sleep? I think he is gameplan

:25:07. > :25:12.is simple, continued doing what he has been doing. It has been

:25:13. > :25:18.successful so far. Repeat and play, repeat and play. Keep flying on to

:25:19. > :25:25.those primaries. I do not think it changes at it. There is not the

:25:26. > :25:30.argument that we can change a thing about his message. All the attacks,

:25:31. > :25:35.advertising, negatives that are widely understood and discussed in

:25:36. > :25:44.the public seem to be bouncing like of him. I disagree. He needs to

:25:45. > :25:56.broaden his at Peel to win before the convention. -- broaden his

:25:57. > :26:07.appeal. He had a huge opportunity with the riots and people beaten up

:26:08. > :26:15.at its events to say that is wrong. He needs to start acting far more

:26:16. > :26:20.presidential and less childlike. In the Fox News debate I thought he was

:26:21. > :26:26.unmasked as a totally ignorant on his positions. It is going to

:26:27. > :26:29.persuade the Republican Party that he has a chance of winning the

:26:30. > :26:33.election he has to start doing something about his negatives and

:26:34. > :26:40.has to get to 63% of the remaining votes will not he has to broaden the

:26:41. > :26:48.appeal. We have to leave it there for the moment. Do stay with us for

:26:49. > :27:00.more coverage of super Tuesday. Latest developments on the website.

:27:01. > :27:07.You can download our application and see who is there. We are inching

:27:08. > :27:13.closer to results on both sides. Stay with us.

:27:14. > :27:19.Good morning to the next few days should stay mainly dry and are not

:27:20. > :27:24.settle for most of us but it will not be sunny. Tuesday we got some

:27:25. > :27:31.sunshine in western parts lifting temperatures of 216 degrees. You

:27:32. > :27:36.really did get the raw end of the deal south. It is all because high

:27:37. > :27:44.pressure is in charge of our weather. Around this high pressure,

:27:45. > :27:52.the winds working around the high, they always be big lumps of clouds

:27:53. > :27:56.passing by. Many places with the old spot of drizzle. Things shoot

:27:57. > :28:05.brighten up a bit across many parts of England and Wales. -- should. For

:28:06. > :28:12.the far west of Scotland. Where we get the best of the brightness

:28:13. > :28:18.temperatures up to 16 degrees. Similar stories for north-east

:28:19. > :28:26.India. Manchester 10 degrees if you get breaks in the cloud and some

:28:27. > :28:31.sunshine. Along the east coast, exposed to the north-easterly

:28:32. > :28:37.breeze, 5-6 degrees. Should do better than that at the Cheltenham

:28:38. > :28:43.Festival on Wednesday. As we get towards the end of the week there

:28:44. > :28:49.will be increasing amounts of cloud and it will feel cold. Another lump

:28:50. > :28:55.of cloud working its way internally. The old spot of drizzle but breaks

:28:56. > :29:03.in the cloud and a touch of frost possible. Into Thursday, more of the

:29:04. > :29:09.same and it looks quite unrelentingly cloudy. Many central

:29:10. > :29:14.and eastern parts of Scotland and northern Ireland cloudy. Best

:29:15. > :29:21.chances of sunshine on Thursday in the southern half of England and

:29:22. > :29:27.southern Wales. On Friday, the high drifting west, we will see more of a

:29:28. > :29:37.northerly wind, it will bring further areas cloud across the

:29:38. > :29:42.country called as well. Into the weekend, it stays dry and settled

:29:43. > :30:22.but often cloudy and where it is cloudy, distinctly cool.

:30:23. > :30:25.Welcome to a BBC News special on the second Super Tuesday of

:30:26. > :30:29.the race for the White House, with me, Katty Kay, live in Washington.

:30:30. > :30:33.The latest updates: Republican frontrunner Donald Trump wins

:31:02. > :31:04.Bernie Sanders in tight race with Hillary Clinton in Illinois and

:31:05. > :31:17.Let's hear from Donald Trump who has just spoken at his resort in south

:31:18. > :31:26.Florida. We started and something happened called Paris, Paris

:31:27. > :31:30.happened. It was Paris and then we had a case in Los Angeles where it

:31:31. > :31:38.was in California, where 14 young people were killed. It goes on and

:31:39. > :31:42.on and on. What happened with me is this whole run took on a whole new

:31:43. > :31:47.meaning. Not just borders, trade deals. We will make the best trade

:31:48. > :31:50.deals you've ever seen. We've got endorsements from the smartest

:31:51. > :31:56.people in business. These people are going to be negotiating and they are

:31:57. > :32:00.the best in the world. We have the best business people in the world.

:32:01. > :32:03.We will have such great deals and we will go so well with trade and on

:32:04. > :32:10.the border. It took on a whole new meaning. The meaning was very

:32:11. > :32:15.simple. We need protection in our country and that's going to happen.

:32:16. > :32:20.I am just very proud to be a part of this. I think we are going to go and

:32:21. > :32:24.we will do a lot of trips over the next month but I think we'll have a

:32:25. > :32:27.great victory. More importantly, we are going to start winning again.

:32:28. > :32:36.This country is going to start winning again. We don't win any

:32:37. > :32:42.more. Donald Trump, speaking at his victory rally in Florida. I am

:32:43. > :32:52.joined by Julian Epstein and Phil Musser. Where does tonight's result

:32:53. > :32:55.leave Donald Trump and the Republican Party? Donald Trump is in

:32:56. > :33:09.a position to clinch the nomination. We have talked about this scenarios

:33:10. > :33:15.that could unfold. There is no way to say this isn't a massively good

:33:16. > :33:19.night for Donald Trump. He will win across the board. He will collect

:33:20. > :33:26.the delegates. He cannot say he is the Republican nominee. I think it

:33:27. > :33:32.will go, as discussed, into June. We haven't heard from Senator Kruis,

:33:33. > :33:38.who is waiting to see the result of conservative counties in western

:33:39. > :33:43.Missouri that have not come in -- Cruz. If he can get a win, that

:33:44. > :33:47.would validate his candidacy and give him a stable energy that

:33:48. > :33:53.would... That is why we haven't seen him yet. It will be coming shortly.

:33:54. > :33:57.I think he is hoping for it. We will bring you Ted Cruz when we get it.

:33:58. > :34:00.Julian, where does it leave the Democrats? In as good a position as

:34:01. > :34:06.we can hope Democrats? In as good a position as

:34:07. > :34:11.we can -- she has twice the delegates of Bernie Sanders. She is

:34:12. > :34:14.the nominee. People will say there is no possibility for Bernie Sanders

:34:15. > :34:20.to get the nomination. She is effectively the nominee as of

:34:21. > :34:25.tonight. I take a different point of view from Phil on the Republican

:34:26. > :34:30.side. The kind of good news for them is that it is a 3-person race.

:34:31. > :34:37.Donald Trump will have a hard time doing better than 35 or 40% in the

:34:38. > :34:41.race going forward. If that is the case it is hard to see how he can

:34:42. > :34:46.get the delegates to go into the convention with the number he needs

:34:47. > :34:49.for the nomination. We go back to the brokered convention. That is I

:34:50. > :34:53.think where it is headed. I would bet my money that Donald Trump will

:34:54. > :34:58.not be the nominee for the Republican Party. We will be dusting

:34:59. > :35:03.off the political rulebooks before the convention in Cleveland. Let's

:35:04. > :35:06.hear from Hillary Clinton, speaking in south Florida at her campaign

:35:07. > :35:13.headquarters. Interesting, she addressed Donald Trump, who she

:35:14. > :35:18.assumes would be her adversary, making the pivot from the primary is

:35:19. > :35:25.to the general election. -- primary is. Because of you and our

:35:26. > :35:29.supporters across the country, our campaign has earned more votes than

:35:30. > :35:39.any other candidate, Democrat or Republican.

:35:40. > :35:44.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. And I want to congratulate Senator

:35:45. > :35:54.Sanders with a vigorous campaign he is waiting. Now, today, all of you

:35:55. > :36:00.in the states were contests were held, voted to break down the

:36:01. > :36:05.barriers that hold us all back, so everyone of us can share in the

:36:06. > :36:14.promise of America. You voted... CHEERING AND APPLAUSE.

:36:15. > :36:20.You voted for our tomorrow to be better than our yesterday.

:36:21. > :36:23.Tomorrow, where all of us do our part and everyone has a chance to

:36:24. > :36:32.live up to his or her God-given potential.

:36:33. > :36:38.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. Because that is how America can live

:36:39. > :36:49.up to its potential too. Now, we need you to keep working, keep

:36:50. > :36:55.volunteering. Keep contributing at Hillary Clinton .com. Please join

:36:56. > :36:59.the 900,000 supporters who have contributed, mostly less than $100,

:37:00. > :37:04.because our campaign depends on small donations with the majority of

:37:05. > :37:09.support. We cannot do this without you. So, if you have been waiting

:37:10. > :37:16.for the right moment, now is the time to come and join us. Hillary

:37:17. > :37:21.Clinton speaking a short time ago down in Florida. Of course, it was a

:37:22. > :37:28.good night for her. We can cross live to our correspondent. Let's

:37:29. > :37:32.take this forward. You said she will take a break but she has a lot more

:37:33. > :37:38.primaries to run. Do you think that Hillary Clinton has to adapt her

:37:39. > :37:43.message to try to get those Bernie Sanders supporters on her side? How

:37:44. > :37:46.do she managed the transition from primary to the general election

:37:47. > :37:51.while keeping Bernie Sanders supporters, or trying to bring them

:37:52. > :37:56.along with her? She is hoping that they will realise that she is their

:37:57. > :38:01.best choice when it comes to the general election. It is a message

:38:02. > :38:06.she has not quite focused on so far but you can see this evening she was

:38:07. > :38:10.pivoting to the general election. She was telling Democrats, listen

:38:11. > :38:15.up, it is time, the general election is here and starting a she was

:38:16. > :38:19.attacking Donald Trump. The first time she mentioned him in a speech

:38:20. > :38:24.by name, pushing back against his rhetoric and making a list of what

:38:25. > :38:28.it is the next president has to do, not just on the economy, improving

:38:29. > :38:32.it further, but also to keep the country safe and get it back

:38:33. > :38:36.together. She has had trouble with young voters, supporters of Bernie

:38:37. > :38:42.Sanders. Her answer is, they might not be for me but I am for them and

:38:43. > :38:46.that is one reason why, even though she is already the nominee, they are

:38:47. > :38:51.not willing to declare it. I asked one of her advisers if they are

:38:52. > :38:55.ready to say it is impossible for Mr Sanders to win the nomination and

:38:56. > :39:00.they said no. They will let it play out and they will hope that Bernie

:39:01. > :39:05.Sanders, when he sees this unfold, will drop out of the race. There is

:39:06. > :39:09.no sign of that from Mr Sanders but that is the hope. When he does that

:39:10. > :39:12.there will be conversations about how he can bring his supporters and

:39:13. > :39:17.the excitement of the young voters he has gathered by Twell over the

:39:18. > :39:22.last month, to her side, because a she said this evening, in her view

:39:23. > :39:28.this is a very consequential action, not just for the US but for the

:39:29. > :39:33.world. Few people if any that I can think of are as well in politics as

:39:34. > :39:41.Hillary Clinton. She can't say the electorate doesn't know her. What

:39:42. > :39:46.can she do to -- do to try to close the gap? Donald Trump has voters who

:39:47. > :39:50.are absolutely passionate. You don't feel that passion even amongst

:39:51. > :39:55.Democrats who say they will vote for Clinton and support her. She lacks

:39:56. > :40:04.that enthusiasm. What can she do to try to change that? What her aides

:40:05. > :40:14.will tell you is that there is no enthusiasm gap. They say she is a

:40:15. > :40:20.head not only in the delegate count, but she is the one getting

:40:21. > :40:26.more votes. She is ahead of Donald Trump. In the last country was ahead

:40:27. > :40:31.of him by 600,000 votes. As you see the election go forward and if Mr

:40:32. > :40:34.Trump becomes the nominee, she can excite the democratic base by

:40:35. > :40:43.pushing the message that this consequential to stay at home. Thank

:40:44. > :40:49.you. Just for those who are joining the coverage, to recap - Marco Rubio

:40:50. > :40:54.from Florida has suspended his campaign after he lost the state of

:40:55. > :41:00.Florida to Donald Trump. John Kasich, the popular governor, the

:41:01. > :41:05.Republican from Ohio, won in Ohio. It was a bank all win for him. He

:41:06. > :41:11.had to win that state in order to stay in the race. Here is what he

:41:12. > :41:19.said after his victory. It has been my intention to have young people

:41:20. > :41:24.across this country what somebody enter into politics, even though I

:41:25. > :41:28.laboured in obscurity for so long, people counting me out, people in

:41:29. > :41:36.Ohio saying, why don't they ever call on him? We get all that. We put

:41:37. > :41:43.one foot in front of the other and I want to remind you tonight that I

:41:44. > :41:47.will not take the low road to the highest office in the land.

:41:48. > :41:53.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. One of the best lines in the

:41:54. > :41:56.campaign tonight. To remind you, we are waiting for Ted Cruz to speak in

:41:57. > :42:01.Houston. He is the only candidate who has not spoken so far. He is

:42:02. > :42:08.waiting for the result in Missouri to give a speech about Missouri.

:42:09. > :42:13.Someone who endorses Ted Cruz is up on stage at the moment in Houston.

:42:14. > :42:18.We assume Ted Cruz will come out soon. Let's hear from our

:42:19. > :42:25.correspondent in Cleveland. I loved that line. I won't take the low road

:42:26. > :42:38.to the highest land in the office. What happens to his road to the

:42:39. > :42:44.highest land in the office? They need 1237 delegates to win outright.

:42:45. > :42:49.As of now he has around 129. There are about 1000 to play for. There

:42:50. > :42:55.are delegates that are now floating free from Marco Rubio. He would need

:42:56. > :43:00.something in the order of 90% of the remaining delegates to get anywhere

:43:01. > :43:05.near that majority. He is banking on coming back to Cleveland for the

:43:06. > :43:10.Republican convention in July. And getting into a fight for the

:43:11. > :43:16.nomination. At the moment, that is a high risk strategy. It looks quite

:43:17. > :43:19.remote. If you were thinking about things now and try to project

:43:20. > :43:26.forward, you might think is low road, or his high Road, is still

:43:27. > :43:34.heading for the ditch. Interestingly, on trade he has been

:43:35. > :43:38.a supporter of free trade deals, including NAFTA, and he has been hit

:43:39. > :43:45.quite hard, but he has pulled out a win in Ohio. Yes. He has gone after

:43:46. > :43:51.him big-time, Donald Trump, on the issue of trade. We know it has been

:43:52. > :43:55.a big theme of the Trump campaign. The question of jobs leaving the

:43:56. > :44:00.country. Donald Trump promising to bring them back from China and so

:44:01. > :44:04.on. He has resisted that and that has been a combination of things. He

:44:05. > :44:09.has a huge organisation on the ground. He has been governor since

:44:10. > :44:17.2010. That gives him an enormous advantage. The party machine he was

:44:18. > :44:20.behind him. He also had quite a lot of people laying in with some strong

:44:21. > :44:26.advertising in the last weeks. Quite negative advertising. He talks about

:44:27. > :44:30.the negative advertising sponsored against Donald Trump here in the

:44:31. > :44:36.state. His approval rating is strong. They are in the 60s. Among

:44:37. > :44:40.Republicans that they are among the 80s. He should have been winning.

:44:41. > :44:44.Things slipped when he pulled it back and this message, this

:44:45. > :44:50.contrasting message, which was drowned out at the beginning of the

:44:51. > :44:55.campaign, the, I am the nice guy who won't dip to the level of the

:44:56. > :44:58.mudslinging, I will be civilised, I will do it the old-fashioned way,

:44:59. > :45:03.that was drowned out and I think he is feeling, and he said it tonight,

:45:04. > :45:06.he has had more attention in the last three weeks than in the last

:45:07. > :45:19.six months, which he thinks is paying off. Thank you. Let's talk,

:45:20. > :45:20.Julian... No, back to Houston, because Ted Cruz is coming onto the

:45:21. > :46:05.podium. CROWD CHANT. Thank you so very much

:46:06. > :46:11.and God bless each one of you. Thank you Dan Patrick for leading our team

:46:12. > :46:24.here in the states of Texas and... CHEERING AND APPLAUSE and isn't

:46:25. > :46:28.Carly extraordinary! Such a tremendous leader and, I have to

:46:29. > :46:39.tell you, she terrifies Hillary Clinton! Hillary tosses and turns in

:46:40. > :46:48.her jail cell thinking about her. Tonight was a good night. CHEERING

:46:49. > :47:02.AND APPLAUSE. Tonight we continued to gain delegates and continue our

:47:03. > :47:09.march. After the ninth, America now has a clear choice going forward. --

:47:10. > :47:16.after tonight. Let me say a word about Marco Rubio top his friend,

:47:17. > :47:25.colleague. He ran a strong, optimistic, positive campaign. His

:47:26. > :47:33.story, the son of a bartender the son of a maid who fled Cuba to find

:47:34. > :47:40.freedom. A powerful, inspirational story, his passion, inspires me. He

:47:41. > :47:44.can paint the picture, we've a tapestry of the promise of America

:47:45. > :47:51.like nobody else and his presidential campaign inspired

:47:52. > :48:02.millions across the nation. Ait congratulate Marco Rubio and

:48:03. > :48:10.Jeanette on their campaign. To those who supported Marco Rubio, who

:48:11. > :48:19.worked so hard, we welcome you with open arms. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE.

:48:20. > :48:26.With gratitude and with hope and with a positive vision together for

:48:27. > :48:32.our great nation. We welcome you to join us along with remarkable lead

:48:33. > :48:38.as like Governor Rick Perry and like all of the Republicans who are

:48:39. > :48:46.uniting behind our campaign. From the National review to markedly...

:48:47. > :48:53.Starting tomorrow morning, every Republican has a clear choice. Only

:48:54. > :49:05.two campaign have a plausible path to the camp they. . Only one

:49:06. > :49:20.campaign has beaten Donald Trump over and over and over again.

:49:21. > :49:26.APPLAUSE. Not once, not twice, not three times but nine times all

:49:27. > :49:35.across the country, from Alaska to Maine.

:49:36. > :49:40.APPLAUSE. Going forward, the choice is straightforward. Do you want a

:49:41. > :49:48.candidate who shares your values or a candidate who has spent decades or

:49:49. > :49:54.posing your values? The mainstream media, the network sued to make the

:49:55. > :49:59.decisions want Donald Trump as the Republican nominee. That is why they

:50:00. > :50:03.haven't given him hundreds and millions in free advertising because

:50:04. > :50:08.they are partisan Democrats ready for Hillary and they know that

:50:09. > :50:12.Donald may be the one person on the face of the earth that Hillary

:50:13. > :50:17.Clinton can beat in the general election. But the media are not

:50:18. > :50:30.going to decide this election. The vote as well. CHEERING AND

:50:31. > :50:35.APPLAUSE. And here is our vision for America Bash a brighter future,

:50:36. > :50:40.greater opportunity for our kids and grandkids, more liberty and more

:50:41. > :50:46.safety and more security. It is an America that is greater tomorrow

:50:47. > :50:52.than it is today and it was yesterday. This election will focus

:50:53. > :50:59.on three critical issues - jobs, freedom and security. As President,

:51:00. > :51:05.my number one priority will be jobs. Turning around this stagnation, the

:51:06. > :51:09.misery of the Obama - Clinton economy. It is easy to talk about

:51:10. > :51:16.making America great again. You can even print that on a baseball cap

:51:17. > :51:20.but the critical question is whether you understand the principles and

:51:21. > :51:31.values that made America great in the first place. CHEERING AND

:51:32. > :51:38.APPLAUSE. The heart of our economy is not in Washington, DC, the heart

:51:39. > :51:47.of our economy is small businesses all across the United States of

:51:48. > :51:53.America. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. If I am elected president, we will repeal

:51:54. > :52:05.every word of Obamacare. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. We will pass a simple

:52:06. > :52:12.flat tax and abolish the IRS. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. We will rein

:52:13. > :52:18.in the EPA and the government regulators that are killing small

:52:19. > :52:28.businesses. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. And we. Amnesty, secure the border

:52:29. > :52:36.and sanctuary cities and end of benefits for those here illegally.

:52:37. > :52:40.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. The result will be millions upon millions of

:52:41. > :52:47.high-paying jobs, wages and rising for people all across America, young

:52:48. > :53:00.people coming out of school with 3-5 job opportunities. CHEERING AND

:53:01. > :53:06.APPLAUSE. Far too many politicians focus on Washington, DC. To the

:53:07. > :53:17.lobbyist, to those like Donald Trump who buy influence, and to those like

:53:18. > :53:19.Hillary Vinton who sell influence, Washington is the centre of the

:53:20. > :53:26.universe but we understand that not right. -- Hillary Clinton. Together,

:53:27. > :53:38.we will make Washington less relevant in all of our lives.

:53:39. > :53:44.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. We will fire government regulators and repeal job

:53:45. > :53:52.killing regulations and, together, we will take the boot of the Federal

:53:53. > :54:02.government off the backs of small businesses all across this country.

:54:03. > :54:16.-- the backs of the neck. It is not about the Crummer -- crooner but

:54:17. > :54:26.less government is more freedom. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE high-heeled

:54:27. > :54:33.wages and a better standard of life for all of us. -- higher wages.

:54:34. > :54:38.Freedom is the second critical issue of this election. Two debates ago,

:54:39. > :54:44.Donald Trump promised all of us that he would compromise with Harry Reid

:54:45. > :54:52.and Chuck Schumer of replacing Antonin Scalia. Our rights hang in

:54:53. > :54:58.the balance and let me be very, very clear to the people of America, I

:54:59. > :55:06.will not compromise away your religious freedom. And I will not

:55:07. > :55:17.compromise away your second Amendment right to keep and bear

:55:18. > :55:23.arms. And every justice are you port to the court will be faithful to the

:55:24. > :55:35.law and will ferociously protective bill of rights for your children and

:55:36. > :55:39.for mine. -- protect. The first critical issue in this election is

:55:40. > :55:43.security for top for seven years we have abandoned our friends and

:55:44. > :55:47.allies and we have shown a weakness and appeasement to our enemies. Two

:55:48. > :55:53.debates ago, Donald Trump promised, as President, to be neutral between

:55:54. > :55:58.Israel and the Palestinians. Well let me be clear, as President, I

:55:59. > :56:10.will not be neutral. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. America will stand,

:56:11. > :56:19.unapologetically, with the nation of Israel. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. And

:56:20. > :56:22.anyone who cannot tell the difference between our friends and

:56:23. > :56:27.our enemies, who cannot tell the difference between Israel and the

:56:28. > :56:31.Islamic terrorists who seek to murder us, that raises real

:56:32. > :56:39.questions about their fitness and judgement to be commander in chief.

:56:40. > :56:47.APPLAUSE. Donald Trump says he will keep in place this Iranian nuclear

:56:48. > :56:52.deal and try to renegotiate it. I will reap this read this Iranian

:56:53. > :57:00.nuclear deal on my very first day in office. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. Over

:57:01. > :57:03.seven years, President Obama has weakened and undermined the

:57:04. > :57:09.military. We have seen this before with another weak democratic

:57:10. > :57:15.president, Jimmy Carter, who did the same thing and in January 1981,

:57:16. > :57:20.Ronald Reagan came into office... CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. What did

:57:21. > :57:25.Ronald Reagan do? It cut taxes, lifted regulations and pulled

:57:26. > :57:32.government of the backs of the necks of small businesses, it created jobs

:57:33. > :57:39.and revenue and the use the money to rebuild the military. STUDIO:

:57:40. > :57:46.Invoking the wells, Ronald Reagan as the standardbearer of the

:57:47. > :57:57.conservative movement, he is waiting for the results. Stay with us for

:57:58. > :58:04.full Courage -- coverage of who America voted for. You can go to our

:58:05. > :58:08.website for all the results. Stay with us.

:58:09. > :58:13.The next few days should stay mainly dry and settled for most of us but

:58:14. > :58:17.And it certainly wasn't sunny for us on Tuesday.

:58:18. > :58:20.Yes, we got some sunshine in western parts, lifting temperatures

:58:21. > :58:25.Compare that with just 6 down the east coast.

:58:26. > :58:28.You really did get the raw end of the deal here, with a lot

:58:29. > :58:31.of cloud and a key north-easterly breeze making it feel chilly.

:58:32. > :58:34.It is all because high pressure is in charge of our weather.

:58:35. > :58:36.Around this high pressure, in the flow, the winds working

:58:37. > :58:39.around this high, they were always going to be big lumps

:58:40. > :58:45.We have a big lump of cloud to start Wednesday morning, actually.

:58:46. > :58:47.Many places grey, even the odd spot of drizzle.

:58:48. > :58:51.As we go through the day, things should brighten up a bit across

:58:52. > :58:54.Probably more sunshine here than we had during Tuesday.

:58:55. > :58:57.Some sunshine for Northern Ireland and also for the far west

:58:58. > :59:01.Where we get the best of the brightness, we could again

:59:02. > :59:05.Compare that with just 6 in Aberdeen, where you'll cling on

:59:06. > :59:09.to cloud, a bit of mist and mirk, maybe the odd spot of drizzle.

:59:10. > :59:10.Similar stories for north-east England.

:59:11. > :59:13.But come further south, Manchester 10 degrees if you get breaks

:59:14. > :59:17.Throughout Wales and the south-west, the Midlands,

:59:18. > :59:19.into East Anglia and the south-east, some sunny breaks, but

:59:20. > :59:22.along this east coast, where you're exposed to that north-easterly

:59:23. > :59:27.Should do a little better than that at the

:59:28. > :59:34.Gradually, as we get towards the end of the week,

:59:35. > :59:38.there will be increasing amounts of cloud and it will feel cold.

:59:39. > :59:42.As we move through Wednesday night, through the early hours of Thursday,

:59:43. > :59:46.another lump of cloud working its way in, turning cloudy for most.

:59:47. > :59:49.Even the old spot of drizzle in places but where we get breaks

:59:50. > :59:52.in the cloud it could get cold enough for a touch of frost.

:59:53. > :59:56.Could be mist and fog patches too where

:59:57. > :00:03.Into Thursday, more of the same and it looks quite unrelentingly cloudy.

:00:04. > :00:05.Many central and eastern parts of Scotland and northern Ireland

:00:06. > :00:12.Best chances of sunshine on Thursday in the southern half of England

:00:13. > :00:18.On Friday, the high drifting west, we will see more

:00:19. > :00:24.of a northerly wind, it will bring further areas cloud

:00:25. > :00:29.of a northerly wind, it will bring further areas of cloud

:00:30. > :00:37.Into the weekend, it stays dry and settled but often cloudy and where

:00:38. > :01:46.Welcome to a BBC News special on the second Super Tuesday of

:01:47. > :01:49.the race for the White House, with me, Katty Kay, live in Washington.

:01:50. > :01:51.The latest updates: Republican frontrunner Donald Trump wins

:01:52. > :01:56.Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton wins primaries in

:01:57. > :02:00.Ohio Governor John Kasich defeated Mr Trump in his home state, denting

:02:01. > :02:04.Florida Senator Marco Rubio suspends his campaign after heavy defeat to

:02:05. > :02:08.Bernie Sanders is in a tight race with Hillary Clinton

:02:09. > :02:16.We are waiting for the Republican result from Missouri. Ted Cruz and

:02:17. > :02:19.Donald Trump are in a tight race. Let's hear from Donald Trump who

:02:20. > :02:24.spoke just a while ago at a resort in south Florida.

:02:25. > :02:33.We started, and something happened called Paris. It was a disaster.

:02:34. > :02:38.There have been many. It was Paris. Then we had the case in Los Angeles

:02:39. > :02:47.where it was, where 14 people were killed. It goes on and on and on.

:02:48. > :02:51.What happened with me is this whole run took on new meaning not just on

:02:52. > :02:55.borders and trade deals, we will make the best trade deals you have

:02:56. > :02:59.ever seen. We have endorsements from the smartest people in business.

:03:00. > :03:05.These people will negotiate these deals. They are the best in the

:03:06. > :03:10.world. We are going to have such great deals. We will do so good with

:03:11. > :03:15.trade. We will do so good on the border. It took on a whole new

:03:16. > :03:19.meaning. The meaning was simple - we need protection. That is going to

:03:20. > :03:27.happen. All of a sudden, the numbers shot up. I am proud to be part of

:03:28. > :03:32.this. I think we will go and do a lot of trips over the next month but

:03:33. > :03:35.we will have a great victory. More importantly, we are going to start

:03:36. > :03:43.winning again. This country is going to start winning again. We don't win

:03:44. > :03:46.any more. Donald Trump cannot yet call himself the Republican Party

:03:47. > :03:50.nominee for the White House but he has had a good night with that

:03:51. > :03:56.substantial win in the state of Florida. Marco Rubio from Florida

:03:57. > :04:00.did not have a good night. He lost his home state. If you are running

:04:01. > :04:04.for the presidency and you lose your home state, you might as well pack

:04:05. > :04:12.up and go home and that is what he did. It is not God's plan that I am

:04:13. > :04:18.president in 2016 or ever may be, and today my campaign is suspended,

:04:19. > :04:23.the fact that I have come this far is evidence of how special America

:04:24. > :04:31.truly is. And all the reason more why we must do what we can to ensure

:04:32. > :04:36.this place remain special. I asked the American people to not get into

:04:37. > :04:42.fear and frustration. We can disagree on public policy and we can

:04:43. > :04:46.disagree passionately, but we are hopeful and we have every right to

:04:47. > :04:53.be hopeful. We are the descendants of go-getters. In our veins runs the

:04:54. > :04:58.blood of people who gave it up so we have the chances they never did. We

:04:59. > :05:04.are the descendants of someone who made our future the purpose of their

:05:05. > :05:09.lives. Marco Rubio has suspended his campaign for the nomination for the

:05:10. > :05:14.presidency. I am joined by Phil Musser and Julian Epstein. Thank you

:05:15. > :05:22.for staying with me through this long night. Let me start with you,

:05:23. > :05:28.Phil. I keep thinking this must be a campaign of what

:05:29. > :05:34.Phil. I keep thinking this must be a campaign of if's, and what if Donald

:05:35. > :05:41.Trump hadn't run? Great question. It is hard to play that game. If Trump

:05:42. > :05:46.had not sucked up his energy, I think Marco Rubio might not have

:05:47. > :05:51.been the necessary vessel for it. Ted Cruz, who we heard earlier, was

:05:52. > :05:57.a more likely recipient. His message has been anti- Washington aimed at

:05:58. > :06:03.not having anything to do with Washington. The message Senator

:06:04. > :06:09.Rubio delivered, playing to the angels of the process, is not where

:06:10. > :06:12.a large, angry populist, conservative base of the Republican

:06:13. > :06:20.Party is an ultimately that disconnect is why he was an --

:06:21. > :06:24.unable to gain traction in Florida because people turned out and voted

:06:25. > :06:31.for Donald Trump. John Kasich, who has not played to the angry base of

:06:32. > :06:39.the Republican Party, won his home state. His appeal has not been that

:06:40. > :06:44.strong outside Ohio. The exit polls, some of them, show 60% of

:06:45. > :06:49.Republicans feel betrayed by their own party. We should remind

:06:50. > :06:54.everyone, I find it one of the most fascinating parts of this, when

:06:55. > :06:57.pollsters are asking voters what they feel, what are the issues and

:06:58. > :07:04.concerns and we get a flavour of how... 60% feel their own party has

:07:05. > :07:13.let them down. In some states it is as high as 60%. The exit polls are

:07:14. > :07:16.fascinating. For Hillary Clinton, to take one state in North Carolina,

:07:17. > :07:23.80% of the African-American vote went to her. It was slipping when

:07:24. > :07:29.Bernie Sanders got 35%. She has solidified the wall. 60% of women

:07:30. > :07:36.vote in Florida. She got 60% of the Spanish vote. In North Carolina, the

:07:37. > :07:47.alarm, the caution for her was she lost independence by 60%. She lost

:07:48. > :07:53.18 to 29 75%. Women and men? In the 18 to 29 young vote, yes. With white

:07:54. > :07:59.men she lost 57% in North Carolina, although she won that white men in

:08:00. > :08:04.Carolina. Those concerns, independent young voters, they are

:08:05. > :08:07.warning signs for her. When you look at where Hillary Clinton has

:08:08. > :08:14.weaknesses, she is not the strongest candidate for the Democratic Party,

:08:15. > :08:18.how does it leave the Republican chances of taking on Hillary

:08:19. > :08:23.Clinton? What do they need to do to win the White House? We need a fully

:08:24. > :08:35.unified party that is bringing people in. We cannot run and win a

:08:36. > :08:40.traditional base collection. The white vote in the country no longer

:08:41. > :08:44.can be relied on by the Republicans to drive wins at the presidential

:08:45. > :08:47.level. We need to expand with Hispanics and with women. There is a

:08:48. > :08:53.whole demographic we need to succeed with. One thing with your viewers

:08:54. > :08:58.you might be interested in with Donald Trump is the Donald Trump

:08:59. > :09:03.voter in Ohio, exit polls have showed interesting things. For

:09:04. > :09:08.reasons that are not clear, he is very competitive with evangelicals.

:09:09. > :09:13.He polled with John Kasich with evangelicals. He won by almost a two

:09:14. > :09:20.to one margin for those making less than $50,000. What you are seeing is

:09:21. > :09:26.the lower income, less educated evangelical class of Republican

:09:27. > :09:30.voter who in some cases don't have a history of voting, they are turning

:09:31. > :09:39.out. That is the backbone of this coalition. Let's hear from the

:09:40. > :09:47.candidate meant to be of Evander -- evangelicals, Ted Cruz from Texas,

:09:48. > :09:52.and our correspondent is at the headquarters. We just heard him

:09:53. > :09:57.speaking, Ted Cruz, talking about his campaign and how he will go

:09:58. > :10:00.forward. And how he is the only one apart from Donald Trump with a

:10:01. > :10:05.numerical chance of winning this collection. It is an appeal

:10:06. > :10:09.effectively to John Kasich who drop out of the race. They are waiting

:10:10. > :10:16.for the result from Missouri. How are they feeling. Missouri looks

:10:17. > :10:23.like it is a dead heat. They are pinning a lot of hopes on Missouri

:10:24. > :10:27.coming out for Ted Cruz. It is worth noting, I was talking to one of his

:10:28. > :10:30.political directors not long ago and he said that a good night for the

:10:31. > :10:35.Ted Cruz campaign would not necessarily be winning any states

:10:36. > :10:41.but just picking up more delegates to add to his tally. Missouri would

:10:42. > :10:44.be nice to have but in terms of their expectations they were not

:10:45. > :10:48.necessarily hoping to win it. We have been looking at the tally for

:10:49. > :10:55.somewhere like North Carolina. It looks like Ted Cruz has picked up 24

:10:56. > :10:58.delegates. Remember, before we came in, it was around 100 short of

:10:59. > :11:06.Donald Trump. He still believes he is the only candidate who can beat

:11:07. > :11:09.him. He believes he is the only candidate who can beat Hillary

:11:10. > :11:14.Clinton in a general election. Phil Musser was saying about the

:11:15. > :11:21.evangelical vote and how Donald Trump has got evangelical voters. We

:11:22. > :11:24.heard Ted Cruz saying, I am the conservative who has always

:11:25. > :11:27.supported your values and implying Donald Trump has flip-flopped on

:11:28. > :11:33.these conservative evangelical values. How frustrating is it for

:11:34. > :11:40.the campaign that they have lost in some states the evangelical voters

:11:41. > :11:43.to Donald Trump? It is frustrating. When you speak to people on the

:11:44. > :11:49.campaign, they will highlight the wind and tell you Ted Cruz is the

:11:50. > :11:53.only candidate who has beaten him. He took to the stage and said he has

:11:54. > :11:57.beaten him nine times. Interesting that you talk about the evangelical

:11:58. > :12:02.base. Some of his speech was about policy. He promised to protect

:12:03. > :12:07.religious freedoms and the right to bear arms. That is music to this

:12:08. > :12:11.crowd's years. They want to hear that. I have travelled to a dozen

:12:12. > :12:16.states in this election season. Whenever I have met a Ted Cruz

:12:17. > :12:20.supporter, they have been extremely passionate. In the main, they have

:12:21. > :12:24.been evangelical Christians. Many I have met, if not all of them, don't

:12:25. > :12:30.like the Donald Trump brand of language and find some of it crass.

:12:31. > :12:33.Not very family-oriented. That is something Ted Cruz can bank on an

:12:34. > :12:41.count on. Yes, while there are supporters of the evangelical base,

:12:42. > :12:44.Ted Cruz is trying to energise his base, which is why he didn't play

:12:45. > :12:50.politics but simply talked about policy. Policy this crowd expects

:12:51. > :12:55.from him but nonetheless he repeated that. What does Ted Cruz to? How

:12:56. > :13:04.does he take this nomination from Donald Trump -- do? His campaign

:13:05. > :13:08.have said tonight they believe he can take it to the convention. They

:13:09. > :13:13.still believe he can get the numbers. That does look increasingly

:13:14. > :13:21.unlikely. Yes, there have been some conversations about how he could go

:13:22. > :13:24.to a contested convention. The key frustration people I have spoken to

:13:25. > :13:29.from the campaign here tonight, and also people who have attended, is

:13:30. > :13:33.white Marco Rubio did not get out of the way sooner. There was a lot of

:13:34. > :13:37.frustration. People say stateside North Carolina could have been won

:13:38. > :13:42.outright. Rather than losing to Donald Trump. Marco Rubio, if he was

:13:43. > :13:48.not in the race. And frustration that case it has been in the race.

:13:49. > :13:52.Interesting that the Marco Rubio vote is one they are disappointed to

:13:53. > :13:56.have lost out to -- John Kasich case. He said he would welcome Marco

:13:57. > :14:04.Rubio supporters with open arms, hope and gratitude. There are more

:14:05. > :14:10.big states to come. He will hope he can sleep up his supporters. John

:14:11. > :14:15.Kasich is still in the race. Not too subtle, the appeal to the Marco

:14:16. > :14:19.Rubio supporters. Talking of John Kasich, let's go live to John

:14:20. > :14:28.O'Donoghue in Cleveland. He is at the John Kasich campaign. Ted Cruz

:14:29. > :14:32.making a not very subtle appeal to John Kasich to get out of the race

:14:33. > :14:38.and leave it to those with the numerical advantage. I assume's

:14:39. > :14:42.campaign dismissed that tonight. Yes. If you think about tonight, it

:14:43. > :14:48.was a big night for the John Kasich campaign. It was a binary night. If

:14:49. > :14:55.he lost, he was out. If he stayed, if he won, he was in. That moment

:14:56. > :14:59.before they got the confirmation result, when Marco Rubio announced

:15:00. > :15:03.his suspension, amongst staff there was this pumping and high-fives.

:15:04. > :15:08.They knew that was a big boost for them. And then the victory coming

:15:09. > :15:14.in, it means they can go forward. Despite the fact that the terrible

:15:15. > :15:19.mathematics is again strong case it, despite the fact that he hasn't

:15:20. > :15:23.raised as much as anywhere else and his organisation outside of this

:15:24. > :15:29.state is not as good as people like Ted Cruz, despite that, he finds

:15:30. > :15:31.himself in the position of being the candidate the Republican

:15:32. > :15:38.establishment prefer. With that will come some money, no doubt, some

:15:39. > :15:42.backing, and maybe endorsements, like that from Marco Rubio and his

:15:43. > :15:46.supporters and delegates too. They feel there is enough to play for.

:15:47. > :15:51.They are sending him to Philadelphia tomorrow. He will do some

:15:52. > :15:55.campaigning in Pennsylvania. They are looking forward to other states.

:15:56. > :16:01.He was talking about California. He was promised in his speech to

:16:02. > :16:04.continue the tone of the campaign. He said I am not going to take the

:16:05. > :16:09.low road to the highest office in the country. They think that there

:16:10. > :16:17.is a way forward. That way forward comes. -- full circle back here to

:16:18. > :16:22.Cleveland in July to a contested convention. It is a fight for the

:16:23. > :16:29.nomination. That is the only way they can get it. Thank you.

:16:30. > :16:40.There has, of course, been a democratic fight as well. Hillary

:16:41. > :16:46.Clinton has won well and is edging herself, she hopes, as she said,

:16:47. > :16:56.ever closer to being the Democratic nominee. You know, because of all of

:16:57. > :17:01.you and our supporters across the country, our campaign has earned

:17:02. > :17:14.more votes than any other candidate - Democrat all Republican. CHEERING

:17:15. > :17:19.AND APPLAUSE. And I want to congratulate Senator Sanders for the

:17:20. > :17:28.vigorous campaign he is waging. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. Now, today,

:17:29. > :17:32.all of you in the states where contests were held, voted to break

:17:33. > :17:36.down the barriers that hold us all back so everyone of us can share in

:17:37. > :17:44.the promise of America. You voted... CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. ...

:17:45. > :17:50.You voted, you voted for out tomorrow to be better than our

:17:51. > :17:56.yesterday. Tomorrow, where all of us do our part and everyone has a

:17:57. > :18:05.chance to live up to his or her God-given potential. CHEERING AND

:18:06. > :18:13.APPLAUSE. Because that is how America can live up to its potential

:18:14. > :18:17.also. Now, we need you to keep working, keep volunteering keep

:18:18. > :18:27.contributing at Hillary Clinton .com. Please, please, join the

:18:28. > :18:32.950,000 supporters who have a ready contributed and most less than $100

:18:33. > :18:37.because our campaign depends on small donations from the majority of

:18:38. > :18:42.our support. We cannot do this without you say if you have been

:18:43. > :18:48.waiting for the right moment, now is at the time to us. Hillary Clinton

:18:49. > :18:55.in Florida at her victory rally tonight. We also heard from Bernie

:18:56. > :19:00.Sanders, the Senator from Vermont, who has been speaking in Phoenix

:19:01. > :19:05.Arizona where there is a democratic primary next Tuesday. A choice of

:19:06. > :19:12.location. He is making it clear that despite losses tonight he is not

:19:13. > :19:28.leaving the race. Phoenix, are you ready for a political revolution?

:19:29. > :19:34.CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. CROWD CHANT. Are you tired of a handful of

:19:35. > :19:44.billionaires running our economy? CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. Well, if you

:19:45. > :19:55.are, you have come to the right place! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. You

:19:56. > :20:01.know, what excites me so much as I go around the country is to see the

:20:02. > :20:07.incredible energy of hundreds of thousands of people who love this

:20:08. > :20:25.country but knows we can do so much batter. -- but know. We started this

:20:26. > :20:38.campaign at 3% in the national polls. We have come a long way in

:20:39. > :20:46.ten months. CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. And the reason that we have done as

:20:47. > :20:52.well as we have, the reason that we have defied all expectations is that

:20:53. > :20:58.we are doing something very radical in American politics - we are

:20:59. > :21:05.telling the truth! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE. Bernie Sanders who insists

:21:06. > :21:10.he is staying in this race and will be a thorn in Hillary Clinton's

:21:11. > :21:18.side. At least he stops are saying she is the nominee. We go to

:21:19. > :21:23.Florida. She is going to take a bit of a rest now but she starts on the

:21:24. > :21:33.night having to address Donald Trump mauled by name, -- more by name and

:21:34. > :21:37.take him on? Absolutely. The party here has wrapped up. Hillary Clinton

:21:38. > :21:43.will be taken tomorrow of then she will do fundraising and ended the

:21:44. > :21:48.week and then end west. In her speech it was clear she was tried to

:21:49. > :21:51.get Democrats ready for the general election. The team is not ready to

:21:52. > :21:56.say she is the nominee but effectively she is. The path for

:21:57. > :22:03.Bernie Sanders is almost impossible but he's not about to drop out these

:22:04. > :22:10.race and he will point to her race against Obama wishes day till the

:22:11. > :22:13.very end. In the speech she gave, she was already engaging in pushing

:22:14. > :22:19.back against Donald Trump, against his rhetoric, listing what the next

:22:20. > :22:26.president of the US has to do - keep the country together, keep the

:22:27. > :22:30.country safe and work on economic opportunities for all Americans. She

:22:31. > :22:35.achieved several things at this evening in a night that was better

:22:36. > :22:42.than expected according to her aid. She won big on turnouts, she won big

:22:43. > :22:55.in Florida, solidifying the Latina platefuls dot 74% of Latina women

:22:56. > :23:01.voted for her. -- the Latino vote. Sanders wanted to show he was a

:23:02. > :23:07.viable general election candidate. Thank you very much. Before we close

:23:08. > :23:12.out the programme, a thought for you on how this election looks going

:23:13. > :23:18.forward and beyond the primary presses and into the general

:23:19. > :23:23.election? Hillary Clinton has effectively won the nomination

:23:24. > :23:28.tonight. Boonie Sanders wants to get something for the convention but he

:23:29. > :23:33.probably will not get them. Democrats are as good in a position

:23:34. > :23:45.as they have been in the going general election. In Florida, Donald

:23:46. > :23:53.Trump lost the Hispanic vote by an astonishing number. Six out of ten

:23:54. > :23:59.Republicans in Florida said they would vote for Cruz, of the Marco

:24:00. > :24:07.Rubio supporters. 50% go to Donald Trump. 15% say the trade deal have

:24:08. > :24:19.been bad for the country. Donald Trump still nominate dominate --

:24:20. > :24:25.dominates with the non- educated. Even Jellicle is talk about them

:24:26. > :24:39.being a homogenous demographic -- even -- evangelical. They are

:24:40. > :24:46.different eye region... By education and other things. Let's talk about

:24:47. > :24:52.your party now, it looks like the Democrats have consolidated. Hillary

:24:53. > :24:59.Clinton is not calling herself the the winner but she has had a very

:25:00. > :25:05.good night. What happens now to the party? Are you going to have a

:25:06. > :25:11.nominee or not? There are two possible potential nominees all

:25:12. > :25:16.first ballot nominees - Ted Cruz and Donald Trump. The demographic for

:25:17. > :25:28.John Kasich, while the wind is important and he will get attention

:25:29. > :25:33.he has to wind 12% to wind. But remember, there are delegates

:25:34. > :25:39.sitting with Marco Rubio and with them Carson and they will be

:25:40. > :25:43.sidelined. -- Ben Carson. The question is whether Donald Trump is

:25:44. > :25:48.on the momentum. We are waiting to see the final result in Missouri

:25:49. > :25:54.which would allow Ted Cruz to paint a victory but expect Cruz to sharpen

:25:55. > :26:00.his attack and make this a focus of the two men race. CHEERING AND

:26:01. > :26:05.APPLAUSE is likely to win all the rest of the field, frankly, then

:26:06. > :26:11.Donald Karp and that is the key to his parts of moving forward. Coming

:26:12. > :26:18.out of the second Super Tuesday, do you think the chances of a brokered

:26:19. > :26:24.convention at increased? Viewers should be get ready for an

:26:25. > :26:29.interesting July. I do think that Donald Trump remains the

:26:30. > :26:35.overwhelming favourite to win but this result, this 3-way result

:26:36. > :26:36.tonight increases significantly is the chance that we are going
