today, three million people in the state of new york who are independents have lost their right to vote. >> reporter: polls show sanders trailing in new york and in most of the five northeastern states that vote next tuesday. if independents could vote here in new york, do you think it would be a closer race? >> you're assuming it's not going to be a closer race. i think we're going to win this thing. >> reporter: the vote here in new york city was plagued today by reports of delays, misinformation, and 60,000 voters mysteriously dropped from the rolls in brooklyn. tonight, scott, the city's comptroller is calling it inexplicable and says he's launching an audit. >> pelley: nancy cordes in manhattan this evening. nancy, thank you. on the republican side, trump had a huge lead in the polls leading into tonight's primary where 95 republican delegates are at stake. he has about 60% of the magic number so far, but he needs a big victory in new york to regain momentum that he's been

here's major garrett. >> easy decision. >> reporter: after checking in, donald trump made his way to cast a ballot for himself at a synagogue in midtown manhattan. >> you know, it's a proud moment. it's a great moment. >> reporter: outside trump tower, he spoke briefly to reporters. >> i think the campaign's been doing well. many, many senators, governors, they're all gone. >> reporter: but trump's campaign is in the midst of a massive overhaul. new hire paul manafort, the campaign's convention strategist, is minimizing the influence of campaign manager corey lewandowski. and man fort has brought on g.o.p. lawyer william mccginley, counselor to the rules committee at the 2012 republican convention. it's an effort to beef up trump's delegates now and at the july convention, after being out-maneuvered by cruz in several recent states. trump has also approved a $20 million advertising and communications budget for primaries in may and june that

claims the nomination outright. after new york, other northeastern states, including pennsylvania and maryland, will vote next week. >> we're going to win. >> reporter: trump's immediate goal-- win as many of new york's 95 delegates as possible. top strategists predict between 88 and 92. cruz and john kasich are hoping to pick off enough delegates delegates to blunt some of trump's momentum. trump decided to shake up his campaign after losing the wisconsin primary to cruz. scott, trump's children, eric and ivanka press forward some of these changes, and manafort, without a single cautionary word from trump, has been expanding his power base ever since. >> pelley: major garrett at trump headquarters this evening. major, thank you. joining me now as always, john dickerson, our cbs news political director and anchor of "face the nation." john, let's start with the democrats. what are you watching for tonight and in the coming days? >> if hillary clinton, if the polls are right and she does well, the question is how well will she do?

mathematically impossible for bernie sanders to catch up with her and will that then sap some of the momentum from sanders forces in future contests. sanders going to do? he said he's going to fight it all way to the convention but how much fight will he take to her? the last couple of weeks have been pretty bitter and if he keeps up that kind of bitterness if it looks like she's got the delegates, then will there be a backlash against him, including a backlash that might include the president weighing in perhaps on hillary's side. >> pelley: trump expect a big win don't. how might he change coming out of this primary? >> well, we've seen the reshuffle everything on the past couple of weeks and that's a big deal when you change the top people, in a tight, close-knit group, when you change the top you are changing everything. there are fewer of these eruptions from him. he's more disciplined. this is to rop the "stop trump" movement of any ammunition when they say he will be a chaos nominee. the question will be tonight when the spotlight turns to him, how will he use the moment? what message will he send? >> pelley: john dickerson.

personnel didn't work properly. the alarm system inside the command center was set too low and was not heard. and the alarm system inside the white house had been muted, a revelation personnel quoteed in the report called "shocking." it took gonzalez, who was armed with a knife, about 30 seconds to run across the lawn and reach the white house doors. he then knocked down an officer posted on the other side who could not lock the doors. in all, he eluded eight secret service members before being apprehended in the east room. the report says responding officers did not hear any radio communications about the fence jumper. one officer, who drew his weapon and took cover behind a pillar, was reacting to what he thought was a fight. gonzalez was eventually subdued by two agents who had just come from escorting the president to his helicopter. congressman jason chaffetz is chairman of the house oversight committee. >> i mean, it's really

wearing crocs who already had a foot problem could make all his way-- his way all the way in past security into the white house. >> reporter: the secret service is working to implement the report's recommendations. scott, the i.g. report did commend the secret service for not using deadly force to subdue gonzalez, who has been released from prison after serving 16 >> pelley: jeff pegues in washington, jeff, thank you. today, the death toll from saturday's earthquake in ecuador rose to at least 480. but there are still 17 opinion who are missing. david begnaud is in manta where families are praying for miracles. rescue workers have been scrambling since quake hit to find survivors, but time is running out. these are peruvian rescuers looking into a hotel. it was a three-story hotel that collapsed during the earthquake.

also straining relations, a bill pending in congress that could make saudi arabia liable for damages related to the 9/11 attacks. the kingdom vehemently denies any involvement, though 15 of the 19 hijackers were saudi-born. it threatened to sell off hundreds of billions of dollars in u.s. assets if the bill pass. president obama told charlie rose that legislation is dangerous. >> if we open up the possibility that individuals in the united states can routinely start suing other governments, then we are also opening up the united states to being continually sued by individuals in other countries. >> reporter: today, congressional republicans also expressed skepticism about the bill and, scott, tomorrow, president obama will meet with king salman. despite all of this tension, the two countries still need each other in this fight against isis. >> pelley: margaret brennan with the president in the kingdom tonight.
