is the one who's already leading in the polls, donald trump. when we dropped in on this voting location, the only sign for any presidential candidate we could find were for donald trump. >> very surprised about other people here. what i see with mr. trump is a lot of passion that perhaps we can change with somebody from out of the system. >> reporter: like many here in what's largely a liberal state, today motivated by the heated republican race. >> i voted for obama but now i'm disappointed, you know, about obama, the things that he does. so now i think trump can make our country great again. >> reporter: while none of the gop candidates hit massachusetts this super

in colorful signs and stickers, more names to choose from still on the ballot. >> i want to see it whittled down. >> reporter: our own republican governor cagey after casting his ballot. >> i said before that i wasn't beginning to vote for donald trump and i wasn't beginning to vote for ted cruz, so you can take it from there. >> reporter: governor baker there saying he didn't vote for those. whether you're for or against, seems donald trump brought a lot of people to the polls today. back to you. >> massachusetts has been called a must-win for bernie sanders if he wants to compete with hillary clinton. >> but clinton has been pulling out all the stops, hoping to

sanders campaign . >> reporter: the former president also went inside a polling location, a no-no, an election rule, but not something the chief of elections was too concerned about. >> only in the case of absolute disobedience do we take action. >> if it were anybody else doing it, that wouldn't be the case. >> does he know where to go to vote?

that need fighting. this is who he is. he's been doing it for 30 years. he's not going to stop based on poll numbers or election results. >> reporter: so the thinking is clinton did well in south carolina and may do well with traditional democrats. even if she were to take every state today, she still wouldn't have enough delegates to lock up the nomination. 15th. >> that's when some of the into play. so what is it about the candidate where the issue that's motivating voter behavior today? we have data from the latest polls. >> we all know issues matter in elections but so do the personal issues of the candidates. take a look at the issues likely democratic voters said were important to them.

they were all over the map. two of bernie sanders issues, income equality and ethics, pack. sanders wins the honesty poll too but clinton has experience, strength and electability. early exit polling shows experience is a huge factor across super tuesday. on the gop side, immigration and homeland security, two topics that barely make the democrats radar, are right up there with the economy as key issues. so guess which candidate made those issues his own? trump. like democrats, republican voters want a candidate who shares their views with strength, also a major factor. experience is less important

so there i think you have the basic blueprint for what the happen. it's interesting to see no matter what the distraction is. >> without a job, without the hope of a job and a decent pay check, what else really matters? super tuesday. get the first results and reaction at 8:00 when the polls close, then at 10:00, we'll have a prime time special here on channel 4 followed by a super tuesday wrapup on the wbz news at 11:00. we have just received the final report on that runaway red line train incident. >> the 73-page report confirms the driver of the train cut corners, broke safety rules, and put passengers in a lot of danger. >> reporter: new photos reveal

cab of the runaway train, a phone cord wrapped around the speed control, a clear violation of safety procedures. the report concludes 25-year veteran david vasquez cut corners. because of a signal issue, he'd stepped off the train to activate what's called bypass mode. when he flipped the switch, the train took off with no one at the helm. about 50 passengers endures the harrowing ride before workers was fired. a supervisor must be present mode. and they are looking at adding surveillance cameras to the cab of the train so supervisors can make sure drivers are following the rules.

her fallopian tubes, promised easy, permanent birth control. like thousands of women, she's been living with debilitating side effects. >> i had to be fixed. it's been a long haul. >> reporter: mow the fda has new guidelines, mandating a new study by bayer, the manufacturer of the device. essure now comes with a black box warning, the most severe designation before something is pulled from the market altogether. and doctors will be given a thorough checklist of information, including side effects that must be shared with the patient. >> it was like a slap in the face, like what else do we need to do here? >> reporter: many are upset that the federal government didn't take it off the market. they started a campaign on social media, asking congress to act. >> does it scare you that someone can still use this

>> yes, it does scare me. >> reporter: bayer says patients are their top priority and about a million have been implanted worldwide with complications limited to a small percentage of patients. >> thank you very much. today is march 1st, so the weather people can gather all the data for winter. winter is over for them. >> yes, december, january and february is meteorological winter. doesn't mean that weather stops when you go into march, but in terms of the record books, we have closed that. today's high 49 degrees, and we average 42, so not far off the mark. we'll have a storm bringing a little wintry weather, very mild to the south. we'll get a little rain from this, just starting to move into western pa. it's a fast-moving system, the

around midnight tonight. for the overnight hours into western massachusetts and southern new hampshire, a little freezing rain at the onset. mainly about midnight to 3:00 a.m., there could be slick spots if you have to be out. hour by hour, low temps are in the next couple hours, many of us in the low 30s. then the clouds thicken up and we watch this move in. at the beginning around midnight, few thundershowers that far, should be cold, like 28 to 32. we'll see that hold on for a few, then the southerly winds bring in the warmer air and i think it will scour out the cold faster than the last couple systems we have seen. by the time we head out tomorrow morning, it's all rain across the area. it will come down heavy at times and stronger winds. it's a mild and damp spring- like morning but it doesn't last. it's a mild start but by

during the afternoon and evening, it's nasty outside, windy with 20s in central massachusetts, 30s elsewhere. winds will make it feel like teens by the time you're heading to work tomorrow. be prepared with a heavy jacket for the second half of the day. about a half to 1 inch of rain likely, shouldn't cause any major flood issues. we have wind advisories out there, north shore, cape cod and the islands gusting up to 50 miles an hour in the morning with the heavy downpours. could be a few scattered outages because of that. you can see the direction changes to the west and brings in colder air, still gusting 30 afternoon. scattered outages with winds coming down, possible on wednesday, and a much colder finish. thursday has been cold for us,

right now still expecting lighter snow totals, something we're beginning to keep an eye on for the next couple days. we'll start a warmup as we move into next week. back to you. thank you very much. steve, winter is not over. >> that's right. bruins are taking on the cast tonight. >> it was a stressful day today. i'm still here and happy to be here and be a part of team and try to help them as much as i
