democratic side. leon: all the results are scrolling at the bottom of the screen. we have team coverage. alison: the outcome was expected, but how close is donald trump to clinching the nomination? tom roussey has a look at the numbers for us. when virginia had its primary nearly two months ago, donald trump was not in virginia. montgomerythhe won , and several other counties. he has also been declared the winner of pennsylvania and rhode island. his delegate count stands at 950. he needs 1,237 to clinch the nomination. tonight, he was talking about hillary clinton at his press conference.

and ted cruz, who have teamed up against donald trump. we are joined by chief political correspondent scott thuman. the big question, where do we go from here? trump,if you are donald he is saying he is the presumptive nominee. if you are john kasich or ted cruz, you say that he still may not get the magic number of 1,23 7. they believe they still have a life raft to hold onto. hillary clinton, she looks to be building much more of a commanding lead, especially with the delegates, but bernie sanders says he will stay in as well because he is getting the donors, major rallies. until she reaches the number, he believes he should stay in. commanding victories for both does not clinton necessarily mean that is the end for the rest of the field. leon:
