three of the four are caucus states, and sanders does well in caucuses. at this nebraska caucus site today, his supporters outnumbered clinton's by nearly 2 to 1. sanders is still fighting hard for the nomination. >> and frankly, i have no idea what her position is. she talks in vague terms. >> reporter: today, sanders unveiled a new five-minute ad, in spanish, putting a human face on immigration and the need for a living wage. sanders doesn't even appear in the ad until three minutes in. clinton has this new ad -- >> 500 million solar panels installed in her first term. >> reporter: the style, more conventional. but the message substantive. the democratic debate seems like a civics class compared to the republican side. >> it looked like the kind of fights we used to have in recess in the sixth grade. >> and i would hope that most sixth-graders understand that we don't behave like that. >> reporter: tomorrow night, the democrats debate in flint,

anti-establishment person, ted cruz. donald trump is still the dominant. so far tonight, he's having a bad day, rubio on the democratic side, big votes tonight, also. both sides are looking ahead to florida and to michigan, does the math add up for bernie sanders k he at all win this in. >> his window at the beginning of the month was big. now it's little right now. i think he has the win most of the contests going on today and tomorrow. and then he has the figure out a way to close the gap in michigan. if he can do hillary clinton is still likely to win but he has a slight chance if he's able to do all those things. >> thank you. we move on to new questions in the murder case that captivated a nation, los angeles police confirming they are examining a knife found buried on o.j. simpson's former estate.

the fbi, local law enforcement have questioned the theory of a third gunman. tonight, apple stands by its decision not to attempt to unlock that phone. apple ceo tim cook speaking exclusively with abc's david muir last week. this is also about public safety. >> that's exactly right. because if the government could order apple to create such a piece of software it could be ordered for anyone else as well. >> reporter: in addition to the court documents filed by the d.a., another brief filed on behalf of six families was also filed. urging apple to find a way to break into that phone. cecilia. >> lauren, thank you. we turn next to that brazen gold heist, new details emerging tonight, sounding like a plot straight out of a hollywood blockbuster and as abc's gloria riviera reports, the fbi closing
