ing for nearly two years. could it help solve one of the world's biggest mysteries? scott kelly returns to earth after spending more time in space than any other r american. what he's saying about being back home. the shocking sight. the moment a toddler falls out of a moving van, caught on camera. the child getting up and chasing after the vehicle. how a good samaritan helped that boy find his family today, wednesday, march 2nd, 2016. >> announcer: from nbc news, this is "today" with matt lauer and savannah guthrie, live from studio 1a in rockefeller plaza. good morning. welcome to "today" on a wen wednesday morning. grab tooth sticks and stick them in savannah's eyes. she has a late night. >> the glasses are there to hide it.

wednesday morning because it's still tuesday night for me. >> late night but it was interesting. let's get to the results. start with the republicans. donald trump scored seven victories. vermont, massachusetts, virgrginia, tennessee, alabama,a, georgia and arkansas. ted cruz notched three wins, including the big prize of texas. that is his home state. he goes along there with oklahoma and alaska. marco rubio took minnesota, his first win of this race. here's how the delegate count stacks up this morning. trump with 292. 188 for cruz. 98 for marco rubio. >> on the democratic side, it was a big night for hillary clinton. virginia, tennessee, alabama, georgia, arkansas, texas and massachusetts. bernie sanders is vowing he's not going anywherere. he won in his home state of vermont, as well as in oklahoma, minnesota and colorado. take a look at the delegate count. hilary lary clinton with a

bernie sanders. >> we have complete coverage from our decision 2016 team. let's start with nbc nationall correspondent peter alexander. peter, goodd morning to you. >> hey, matt, good morning too you. it was definitely a super tuesday for donald trump, demonstrating widide appeal from the deep south to the northeast. all said, donald trump has won ten states and collected more delegates than marco rubio and ted cruz combined. >> reporter: donald trump tallying up another impressive night. >> we could win six or seven or eight or nine. >> reporter:r: the billionaire boasting lopsided victories from alabama to massachusetts, and narrower ones from arkansas to virginiaia. >> your critics would suggest you're dividing the country and your party. >> i am a unifier. oncece we get all this finished, i'll go after one person, hillary clinton. >> reporter: naysayers insisting

chris christie toneded it down, trying to bring together a broken party. >> the republican party has become more dynamic and diverse. we're taking from the dedemocrats, takingng from the independents. we have more people. >> god bless the lone star state. >> reporter: by locking up wins in his delegate-rich home state of texas and oklahoma n next door, with an early morning call for alaska, ted cruz strengthened his case as the best equipped to chalallenge trump. >> for the candidates who haven't won a ststate, who haven't wrapped up significant delegatetes, prayerfully cononsider coming together. uniting. that is the only way to beat donald trump. >> i l love you, miami! >> reporter: marco rubio with his sights set on florida in two weeks captured a desperately needed win in minnesota. once again, targeted trump. >> the party of lincoln and reagan and the presidency of the

by a con artist. i will campaign as long as it takes and wherever it takes to ensure that i am the nexext president of the united states. >> onene of the biggest take aways turnout. consider this, 15 statess have voted. 15 republican states have now had numbers, record turnouts, except for vermont. compare 2008, when barack obama swept to victory in the white house to 2016. here's how they compare. the parties effectively trading places. on the right, 2008. democrcrats with 8.2 million voters in the states that voted in primaries on super tuesday. the republicans with 5 million. this time around, the almost exact opposite.. the republicans witith 8.3 million voters turning out. the democrats with 5.5 million. matt and savannah? >> peter, t thank you very much. donanald trump says he deservrves a lot of the credit foror thatat. >> it's a telling number we just showed.

last night, hillary clinton has taken full command of the democratic race this morning. with victory in her sights, her campaign is increasingly focusing on donald trump. nbc's kristen welker is following thahat part of the story this morning. good morning. >> good morning to you. hillary clinton has major momentum this morning after resounding victories all across the south. fueled in large part by hugee african-american support. bernie sanders still insists he can stop her, but it's going to be a lot tougher now. >> reporter: clinton securing her front runner status tuesday, sweeping the south, winning seven states in all. >> now this campaign moves forward to the motor city and beyond. >> reporter: even pulling off a victory in massachusetts, defeating the vermont senator in his own backyard. >> this country belongs to all of us, not just those at the top. >> reporter: as clinton marchs

marches forward, sanders' chances are narrowing. >> i am proud to bring vermont values all across this country. >> reporter: tuesday, he claimed victory in his home state of vermont and wins in oklahoma, colorado and minnesota. >> thank you, bernie. >> reporter: vowing to fight on. >> by the end of tonight, we are going to win many hundreds of delegates. >> r reporter: still, clinton is setting her sights on the battle that may lie ahead. a face-off with donald trump in november. >> america never stopped being great. we have to make america wholole. >> reporter: painting herself as the anti-trump. >> i believe what we need in america today is more love and kindness. >> reporter: the republican front runner returning fire, signaling, if nominated, he'll use the controversy over her e-mails as one of his bigiggest weapons.

if she's allowed to run, i would be very, very surprised. >> the rhetoric we're hearing on the other side has never been lower. >> while clinton is leading by hundreds of delegateses this morning, her aides don't think she can put the race out of reach until mid to late march. she holds a rally in new york tonight, while sanders will hold a breakfast and lay o out the path forward, a sign he has no intention of getting out any time soon. savannah? >> kristen welker, thank you. let's take a closer look at the super tuesday results. chuck todd is moderator of "meet the press," also up all night. > yes, ma'am. >> any other election cycle, if anybody did this well on super tutuesday, having won the early states, you'd be saying, the race is over. you'd be taking a nap. >> the party leaders would be falling all over themselves, excited about this leader who is bringing enthusiasm and new voters and doing all this winning. but it's not the case with donald trump.

remaining in the race looking at an increasingly difficult path to the nomination. what could they do at this point? >> he has over a hundred delegate lead and we haven't assigned all the delegates from super tuesday. he'll likely get over 300. even though a hundred, you think, it can't be much, but it is significant in the way the process works. they basically have 13 days. there's a lot of primaries and caucuses by march 15th. obviously, we're spending a lot of time. we'll be talking about florida and ohio. why? marco rubio and john kasich. the game now, they can't't get the nomination of their own. ted cruz, marco rubio. >> they can't get to the magic number. >> without a contested convention. donald trump is the only one to get the contested number. they have to beat them. i don't know where marco rubio can win before florida. i don't know where john kasich can win before ohio. cruz might get a few victories, but trump is going to win most

starting perhaps with michigan six days from now. >> we'll continue this conversation in a moment, but let's look at the democrats. people need to look at the delegates and see why pundits like yourself are saying this is a tougher road for bernie sanders. >> few things. first of all, there's that gap. a 600 delegate gap there, number one. if you take out the super delegates, which people know those are party leaders that have endorsed her, she'd have a 200 delegate lead. but i want to focus here. the orange are the states clinton won. this is a lot of african-american voters that dominated these primaries last night. bernie sanders did pathetic with these voters. if you can't win these voters -- oh, here we go. you know what, roker? finally, this machine is getting use. >> he's sensitive about the map. >> good-bye. >> lick it while we come over here and let nicolle and matt in on this.

hear every day. >> nicolle wallace is joinining us. trump has a great night. crcruz had a better than expected night, and not a great night for marco rube io. play the role of rubio, staying in the race? >> there is still an animated endeavor to stop trump from reaching the magic number of 1,200 plus delegates. that is all that rubio can hope for, in terms of the results and the delegate count in the primaries. he no longer has a path of getting 1,200 himself. >> chuck, we watched as donald trump took to the stage. who was that guy? it was not the donald trump that we've seen over the last six months. he was restrained. he complimented ted cruz. didn't call him a liar. couple shots at marco rubio. is that the trump of the future, and how long can he stay inn that character? >> i don't know. we just had this conversation,

>> three hours ago. >> yesterday, she's going, you know, if he could get act like a statesman -- >> for a minute. >> well, he did it for a few minutes yesterday. the problem with trump, one step forward and two steps back. if thatt trumpmp can sustain this temperament for 13 more days, it's all he has to do, until march 13th. if he can, he'll be the nominee and they won't be able to stop him at the convention. but the trump we've seen hasas never been able to sustain temperamentally that persona. >> remember when we interviewed trump that one time? he said, i'm trying to be statesmanlike, then he was dropping a world at the drop ing that word at the rally. can a third-party candidate emerge? last night, we coined a term, establishment fantasy. is that what it is or is there a possssibility? >> it t is a possibility because in the cycle, everything is possible.

you would have called a contesteted convention an impossibility three months ago but it's also on the table. >> maybe i'm slow on the uptake, but if the plan is to stop donald trump at the convention, wouldn't the republican establishment want all of these guys to statay in the race, to keep dividing up the delegates? >> absolutely. i think in an odd way, yes. not only that, hope you get m mitt romney to file late in the califofornia primary. will there be a non-aggression pact between cruz, rubio and kasich? kasich, you're on your own in ohio. good luck. we endorse you. we want our voters to vote for you. john kasich sasays, i want my supppporters to vote for marco rubio. if that is the plan, i just don't think these three campaigns can work together like that. >> no evidence of that cooperation. >> it's also really, really hard. it's really difficult to deprive trump of the nomination. not because of the masses and

frosty of his -- ferocity of his susupporters. >> rubio almost won virginia momostly from democrats trying to help him out, but it didn't work. >> matt asked for a quick answer. >> that was like two and a half miminutes. i don't know how that went. >> guys, thanks. >> i'm going to go mess around with that board. >> thank you very much. hallie jackson spent the night covering ted cruz's campaign. she caught up with him after he addressed his supporters in houston. good mornining to you. >> g good morning, matt. ted cruz is already looking ahead to kentucky today. after cheering the results of the oklahoma primary backstage at his partrty, he did what he had to do in texas, won, and bought himself m more time to try to make his case that republicicans, including his rivals, should

chance of stopping trump. >> where you go from here, how do you get the republican nomination? >> at thihis point, there have been 15 states that have voted. only one candidate has beaten donald trump. that's been us. >> should somebody drop out? >> i think all of them love this countryy and are putting this country first. if it becomes clear to a candidate that that candidate does notot have a path to the nomination, has not been able to win a state in 15 contests, hasn't been able to rack up considerable delegates, there comes a point, do you want donald trump to be the nomominee? if trump is thehe nominee, republicans get clobbered. i think people are going too look at the numbers, look at the results, and consider what to do. it is my hope that as a party, we come togetherr and say, stop this madness. do not nominate a candidate who will drive the party off a cliff. >> how do you beat donald trump when he has performed as well as he's performed tonight? >> we have to get one on one. head to head.

i beat him resoundingly. where he benefits now, he has everyone else being fractured and divided. it's my hope the party will say, it is reckless. at a a time when the stakes have never been higher, it's reckless to roll the dice and nominate donald trump. donald trump may bee the one candidate on the face of the planet that hillary clinton can beat. the democratsts are celebrating. we can't let it happen. i don't think republicans want the general election to consist of two ricich new york liberals, one republican and one democrat, runnnning against each other. we should nomiminate a real l conserve tiff and ative and i hope that's what we're going to do. >> cruz is not well-liked by colleagues in the senate, but he seems to be getting reluctantnt backup from lindsey graham, who says the establishment may be in a position where they have to rally around cruz to stop trump. the senator telling me, senator the support.

around one of the ultimate outsiders? >> apparently. we'll see how this shapes up. >> hallie, thanknk you very much. we'll have more onn the impact of super tuesday and thehe races m moving forward in a little while. breaking n news in the search fofor malaysia airlines f flight 370. nbnbc news leaearned investigators believe another piece of debris may havave been found off the cocoast of africa. tom costello has been on this storyy for two years and has the breaking news. good morning. >> nbc news lelearned a piece of debris was discovered on a sand bank off the mossssambiqub coast. an e early analysis suggests it could have come from mh-370. words were seen on t the piece and the locals think it could have been in the water for two years. the debris found by an american
