6:33 pm
this is not winner take all in florida for the democrats. bernie sanders does have a shot and if he runs up the score or performs very well in urban areas. the delegates in the race are proportional. most of them by congressional district. that's why hillary clinton has been focusing on the i-4 corridor and they spend time here. so expect hillary clinton to win. the state sets up nicely for her. i think that he can walk out of florida with a number of delegates. look for a surprise and upset in the state later tonight. >> we'll look indeed. we'll see you tonight. we're hearing about a ballot shortage in corning county. this is where a things went wrong. too many voter ballots in some predints -- precincts not enough in others.
