Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton Win New York Primary
Primary Content
Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton both scored major victories in the state they call home – New York. Are they each now securely on the road to winning the nominations of their parties?
Our panel of insiders weighs the key questions: Can Trump now reach the magic number of 1,237 delegates to win on the first ballot? Does Ted Cruz still have a way to block him? What does John Kasich’s second place finish in New York mean about his chances to win the nomination if there’s a brokered convention? And on the Democratic side, Bernie Sanders has almost no path to victory after New York. Why is he staying in the race? Does he damage Clinton’s chances in the general election the longer he campaigns against her?
Then, we take a deeper look at the controversies that erupted at the Georgia GOP district conventions last week, when Ted Cruz’s forces came away with the majority of the delegates to the Republican National Convention even though Trump won Georgia’s March 1 GOP primary by a wide margin.
