bernie sanders. hillary clinton narrowly winning the state. joe biden crushing bernie sanders winning every single county. destroying sanders when it came to the black vote. something we've seen over the course of the last couple of case. something we saw a couple of states in mississippi. continuing joe biden, what he's done across the south over the course of the last ten days. winning every single county in mississippi. winning 81% of the vote. most notably, keeping bernie sanders under 15%. that viability fresh hold to win delegates. the vast majority, if not all of them will go to joe biden. joe biden also winning idaho as well. as alison pointed out, there are two state outstanding. one of the states under scores the real issues that bernie sanders has going for it. if you look at the top line delegate map, joe biden up by 140 delegates. he's at 787 delegates. you say look, he nodes 1,991 delegates. 787 is a long ways from that. there's still a lot of contests to go. look at the state of washington, state where bernie sanders is narrowly ahead. 2,

whatappens tonight will determine how bernie sanders moves forward. it will determine if joe bidenle to shore up his nomination for the democratic party, so really we are waiting to see what happens with the michigan results this evening. jane: there was quite a moment on t campaign trail earlier when joe biden was aed about gun ntrol and responded to the question with an expletive. >> i support the second amendment. jane: h y d think voters will respond? go joe, or lower oh no, joe? >> one thing on joe biden side landscape for so long thattical people feel like they know him. that is why people referred to him like uncle joe. ssometi it has hurt him in the past. i think this is a scenario ere he felt passionate about the response he was given when asked about his stance on if he wanted to take away guns from americans . this is the joe biden that people want to seen against pres trump, because president trump has labeled himself and his supporterand often times sees himself as a brash, tht is speaks off-the-cuff, that they think is authentic. they think joe biden is a political pe

i am leaning toward bernie sanders. i like joe biden. . like his experience but i do not think he will push the issues as hard as bernie sanders. the last caller said, i have been listening to bernie sanders ring up these same issues for the past 25 years or so. i am pretty sure if he is elected, he will push the envelope to make sure our quality of life is improved. host: thank you for the call. brings uphink rae some important points. senator sanders has been talking about many of the same things for decades, and he has not managed to get a lot done. that is something voters are beginning to recognize and acknowledge. and why they are looking toward a joe biden, perhaps >> this week on q&a, steve inskeep talks about his book, imperfect union, which chronicles john and jesse fremont, who went to the american west in 1842 and helped usher in the california gold rush. after that, prime minister's questions from the british house of commons. the government's response to the outbreak. ♪ susan: steve inskeep, your book is entitled "imperfect un

they've been relishing this idea of going one-on-one with joe biden for a while. bernie sandersewing lines of attacks, specifically on things like health care. but also i imagine things that will come up with joe biden's record broadly in the white house. i think that's something that bernie sanders is really a fight that he's been itching to have. at the same time, though, the landscape of last night has to be fresh in their minds clearly it's not the way they wanted to go, just suffering a string of losses across the states last night. even a place like michigan which is really a place that gave his campaign an extra momentum in 2016 because he was able to stun people here. now, look at it here in 2020, it just shows the new reality for bernie sanders campaigning in 2016, versus campaigning in 2020. and i think the last thing i would say, just look at the word "turnout. ". that's something that's been a essential argument to bernie sanders' campaign that he can turn out young voters, for example, and increase turnout across the board. it hasn't been born out in terms of the da

>> would bernie sanders support joe biden if joe biden were the nominee? >> of course, bernie sanders has said that repeatedly over and over and over again. first of all, bernie sanders likes joe biden. this is not a personal contest between bernie sanders and joe biden. this is about policy and how that policy affects electability. joe biden would be a great president compared to donald trump, bernie sanders would be a great are president than both of them. >> already, ari, thank you for your time. i appreciate you. >> thank you. >> coming up, two states, two, now under a statement of emergency as the coronavirus spreads across this country. a cruise ship is being held offshore near san francisco as passengers on that ship are reported to be showing symptoms of the virus. we are live with the very latest there in california. we'll also look at the economic fallout. and the government's response. . do you have concerns about mild memory loss related to aging? prevagen is the number one pharmacist-recommended memory support brand. you can find it in the vita

his problem is he's 75, 80 delegates behind joe biden now and on the same night bernie sanders may managepset in michigan, joe biden is going to crush bernie sanders in mississippi if the african american turnout turns out to be in mississippi like it was in alabama and the way it was in heavy states on super tuesday and that's 31 delegates that joe biden might win all of. that's a 30 net delegate win for joe biden in mississippi. at this point in the race, landslides matter. you neat them if you're behind and if you get them when you're ahead, you're just making your lead more insurmountable. part of what you heard kamala harris saying in that event, expressing the anger of a lot of african americans that said bernie sanders has not performed well with them in 2016 and 2020 and to walk away from the state of mississippi is both sending a terrible message to african americans in the party and also giving joe biden the landslide that's going to make it harder for bernie sanders to ever catch up in the race. >> let me get your reaction to the part of the interview talking to joe biden about

joe biden are bernie sanders? en, if you want a quick answer, but the delegate count, bernie sanders is right there are slightly behind joe biden, coming out of tomorrow night. that lead could extend. >> bill: here's kevin mccarthy with maria over the weekend. this is the point that he made about joe biden. >> one thing they have to understand, looking back is a republican, nominating joe biden is the same thing as republicans nominating mitt romney. it may make the establishment feel good, but you have no chance of winning. >> bill: does the establishment feel good today? >> i think that they do. i think that they have a sense that this is breaking out right now, that it is clear exactly what the dynamic is. and in that sense, they don't have to worry. they are not as anxious as they were. >> bill: did you hear hillary clinton? >> no. this is why i come to your show. >> bill: here's hillary clinton talking about bernie sanders if you were the nominee of the party. >> as i have said many times, i do not think that

joe biden's camp. what does this mean for bernie sanders going forward? it seems in the course of a day, the momentum has shifted from joe biden now being the front runner and bernie sanders now being the underdog. >> reporter: it's fascinating to be here this was contested territory for a lot of democrats who looked at polling and it was a three-rayway race between joe biden, bernie sanders and michael bloomberg, who as you mentioned spent so much money here on infrastructure and advertising. in the end this race was projected quickly after the polls closed. joe biden with a pretty resounding victory here in north carolina. you see his camp citing what happened in south carolina as a really catalytic thing. he winning that state gave him momentum that changed things here in north carolina and throughout the south and parts of the midwest as well. they are going to try to capitalize on that going forward and i was struck listening to that tape you were playing there of bernie sanders in vermont last night drawing the contrast between his record and yb jb's

joe biden with 176 votes. bernie sanders with 187. 143 for joe biden, 152 for bernie sanders in warren, biden, 158 and sanders, 156. bernie sanders winning in all three of this areas. doesn't mean the state will go like this. but also se but also several counties waiting. polls have not closed. we'll get full results before too long. one thing the county clerk in warren city saying today is that they have had a big number of people coming in to register and vote. a lot of interest in the closing days of this campaign here in michigan and in warren of people wanting to get in, vote, and try to get their voice heard in the democratic process. wolf? >> important indeed. thank you very much. john, let's go to warren, michigan, right now. >> we don't have the votes. miguel said, we don't have the votes. warren, michigan, is here. warren, michigan, is where duke as dukakis ran in the tanks. the votes have not been officially reported just yet. let's see where we are. come out. you see sanders. flipping back and forth. we're very,

joe biden w a do very nearly out, but not anymore. on superuesday, he took 10 of the 14 states that were up for grabs. bernie sanders took three. den, 402. bernie sanders 300 -- 323. the number they are focused on his 1991, that is a number of delegates that takes the prize, so this is a race that goes on for a little while longer. >> the democratic establishment was looking for a centrist front runner take on bernie sanders, but they were waiting to see if joe biden had what it too in south carolina, which is where he said he would come into his own with black voters. he did have a resounding success there, off the back of an influential endorsement, and after that, top democrats fell in behind him. it seems like a large number of voters took their cue from that. a large number of voters told pollsters they were undecided until just a few days before super tuesday. he basically developed this sense of momentum and search for it >> but he is still the same man and sa campaigner,o is this about enthusiasm for joe biden or a moment of clarity for stopping bernie sanders? >> it is a bit of both. in terms of a moment of enthusiasm f

this on the left-hand side here, 48.6% of the delegates allocated is what joe biden has won. 42.8% is what bernie sanderson. this column over here shows you what they need of the remaining delegates. joe biden needs 50.6% of the remaining delegates. bernie sanders, 52.6. so, what i'm saying is their win rate right now is below where both of them need to be performing in order to get to 1,991. if it stays that way throughout the process, the notion of a contested convention becomes a bigger reality. i want to show you how early we are in this process, okay? about 37% of the delegates have been at stake so far. the rest of march, you see here another 27.7% of the available delegates are up for grabs. and then in april through june, you get the final 35% of delegates. so, we're still early in this process before we can say whether or not somebody can get to that magic number of 1,991 before the convention, erin. >> all right. thank you very much david chalian. i want to go to david serrata. david, it's good to have you with me. you heard the delegate math. what path do you see to an outright majority, 1,991

that candidate is joe biden. >> the race is coming down to a choice between bernie sanders and joe bidenrunning a campaign which is obviously supported by the corporate establishment. >> announcer: this is >>> welcome to our

michigan, 53 to joe biden, with 80% reporting. 38 for bernie sanders. needed it again this year. the campaign spent a lot of joe biden spoke about uniting the party tonight in philadelphia. >> i want to thank bernie sanders and his supporters for their tireless energy and their passion. we share a common goal and together we will defeat donald trump. we will defeat him together. we will bring this nation together. we are regenerating a

biden. joe ain't the only surge. some are calling it the biden buy. we're up 1,171 points today. wall street says bidens policies would be better than bernie sanders for the markets. they might be getting ahead of themselves. here's where we stand. say it ain't so, joe biden is the frontrunner right now. michael bloomberg just folded his wall let and deidra is with the candidate off to the races. alex? >> after 100 days on the campaign trail, michael bloomberg is out of the race. the former mayor of new york city saying that he is pulling out the data there. he will throw his weight behind joe biden. he said his message has remained the same. >> if you remember, i entered the race for president to defeat donald trump. today i am leaving the race for the same reason. to defeat donald trump because staying in would make it more difficult to achieve that goal. >> the former mayor centered his three-month campaign around climate change and gun safety. a cause that he donated a lot of his own money to over the years. on the campaign trail, he spent out other democratic candidates with his fortune. president trump called it wasted money. >> look what a

wins, how the gate if he does that for bernie sanders? >> if joe bidenins, that would be a huge upset, a lot of the conversation leading up to this was about bernie sanders ability to mobilize the latin text community, latin x community, he was pulling out of this world, if joe biden was able to make that backup and build that coalition in texas, that can be a big loss for the sanders campaign. >>> the fact that elizabeth warren did not win her home state of massachusetts. >> you would also always like to see them do well in their home state, bernie sanders won vermont, and she didn't hit 15% viability in a lot of states, which means she may walk out with very few delegates out of super tuesday, very detrimental to her campaign. >> a lot of analysis coming up, thank you. >>> more on the coverage for the race for president. >> a team of reporters around the bay area, including janet and deborah, live in san francisco, bernie sanders supporters watched the returns. >> we are at the headquarters on mission street, it is thinking out thinning out a little bi

and that sets up the battle royal between joe biden and bernie sanders. so important sanders changed his schedule to head to michigan as he's sharpening his attacks on biden. >> joe biden has received campaign support from at least 60 billionaires. he's receiving support now from former mayor bloomberg, one of the wealthiest people in this country. and joe has an active super pac. >> joining me now is new york times political reporter katie glick, democratic strategist and former executive director of democratic national convention, bazl smiekl, and gabby orse. let's move away from the states with the large black p populations. joe biden is winning them. >> it pertains to be very good for him, not just because of the black populations but that whoit working class voter on the other side of this for joe biden and bernie sanders, i think joe biden's entire electability argument centered around that early in this race. so a lot of folks went to the polls believing that he could bring the voters back to the democratic fold. so i think he can do well there. he

joe biden was somber tonight, sober, also applauded bernie sanders me understand he has to continue toch out to democrats, especially those who support bernie sanders but you saw joe biden try to commit to the general election. >> one of the questions is turnout, intensity. how much enthusiasm behind joe biden if he becomes the nominee when he does go head to 5 with donald trump? >> a big intangible. we are several geological ages away from the fall campaign. there's a lot that goes on. this has been the result of an incredible three day momentum between south carolina and supertuesday. how sustainable is it? enough that he will become the nominee absent big changes. may be the last inflection point for bernie, hard to see how he can use that moment to win and change the contest. on the other hand if biden gives him that moment he could have a resurgence. i don't think it will happen but that is the last moment. bret: it is not going to be a knockdown drag out, it is going to be policy. bernie sanders is not going down any other way. >> he faces a fundamental choice, does he begin the

immediately and who is the more capable person to deal with economic downturn donald trump or bernie sanders and joe biden i think that's going to be the defining factor as we move towards november so clearly james the republicans will now be thinking they've got to get bernie sanders and joe biden both of them into respective sets of crosshairs if you will political crosses out of the 2 of them who is the weak. i don't i don't know and here's why i don't know. the term of electability which is obviously on the minds of so many voters right now they're all playing pundit they're trying to figure out you know what will voters in michigan and wisconsin in pennsylvania how will they vote in november it's not who they actually like but the idea of electability as you asked earlier is being redefined after president trump was elected in 2016 for example african-american turnout was down significantly in detroit from obama to hillary clinton if she could just increase it a little bit i mean had some drop off she would probably be president you can go down the line the same way with every american turnout in pen

ever remember and what we see is people, there's an avalanche that started to stop bernie sanders, not so much for joe biden to stop bernie sanders and his campaign and joe biden is the benefactor of that winning 9, probably 10 states out of 14 for supertuesday when few people thought he would win more than 2 or 3. >> thinking he's going to take main as well but we are still waiting. let's bring up those states although you just mentioned joe biden coming away with 9 state so far, bernie sanders four states, the big one is california and michael bloomberg is american samoa. what is the key to the nomination moving forward and what do you think bloomberg is going to do? >> bloomberg is probably going to get out. joe biden at the end of the night will still have a half-million vote lead in the popular vote, almost to 1 million the popular vote lead. it will be hard to stop the joe biden avalanche. the only way it will happen is with a really terrible debate performance and as we have seen in the past joe biden is capable of careful debate performances, his communication style has been his problem to date as w

is seen bernie sanders. joe biden is seen as bernie sanders. r candidate, he is a vice president, of course, he occupies that middle ground politically and it seems more and more democrats simply believe he is best placed to beat mr trump. peter, thank you very much that. do stay with us if you can on bbc news. whiskey the border collie, the smartest of all the dogs, she recognises each of the names of her toys. the numbers of dead and wounded defied belief. this the worst terrorist atrocity on european soil in modern times. in less than 2a hours then the soviet union lost an elderly sick leader and replaced him with a dynamic figure 20 years his junior. we heard these gunshots in the gym. then he came out through a fire exit and started firing at our huts. god, we were all petrified. james earl ray, aged 41, sentenced to 99 years and due for parole when he's 90, travelled from memphis jail to nashville state prison in an eight—car convoy. paul, what's it feel like to be married at last? it feels fine, thank you. what are you going to do now? is

our disputes with joe biden are purely policy, they're not personal. bernie sanders thinks joe biden is a great guy. the problem is he's wrong on policy and that policy leads to an electability problem, especially in those states. >> do you assume, first of all, this is now a two-person race? >> look, bernie sanders has said the person with the most delegates who got the most votes in the primary should be the nominee of the party. there are two candidates left in a position to do that, joe biden and bernie sanders who can do that and that is our position. >> senator sanders admitted today that young people haven't turned out in the numbers he had hoped for. why would that change between now and next tuesday and the following tuesday where there are several key contests coming up? >> the democratic party needs young people to turnout but we also need latinos to turn out. our campaign has built a coalition that has succeeded beyond our wildest dreams in bringing latinos into the party. if you look at your california exit polls, you will see us, for example, i think ge

shows her strength as a leader in siding with bernie sanders and creating a progressive front against the racist, monopolistic, neoliberal policies of joe biden that are not very different than donald trump's. >> harris: let me guess, if your candidate, bernie sanders, doesn't make it out of the nominating process, you're not going to back joe biden from what you just said. >> i think we need some soul-searching. >> harris: what does that mean? >> listen, right now bernie sanders is the only candidate that has a movement on the ground to defeat donald trump. just because joe biden got a bunch of endorsements and some support that came to him in the last minute, that shows he has weak support. joe biden doesn't have millions of small dollar donations, millions of people knocking on doors. he had a good week, but bernie sanders has been building a movement for the last five years. i think there's a lot of room for bernie sanders to take this nomination. we hope it doesn't go to the convention, that's not good for anybody. but it's a moment for the democratic party to look internally. >> harris: nomiki, forgive me for cutting and because i don't

future they think that they could split this state what are you hearing from voters about bernie sanders versus joe biden could have bernie sanders win texas are you hearing that same kind of buzz that we hear from all of those burning people on line. if you take a look at the event going on behind me here it's an edwards college in in austin and what they're doing is getting young people involved in politics by telling them how to register to vote and they're getting some people to the polling place which is here on the campus to cast their vote in the in the primary and that idea is that they think the conflict texas the think they can turn that democratic if you look back just 2 years ago better or run for a senate seat against ted cruz no normally they would have thought that you don't count republican votes in texas you just wave them in and give them the seat but he came incredibly close i mean it was within 2 or 3 percentage points that so tight it was and in each of those any is. where the difference was they're talking about a few 1000 votes so suddenly if you start getting thousands and thousan

we know joe biden and bernie sanders have spoken to her, to lobby her. this is the race we have right now. joe biden is your delegate leader. how many people thought we would be saying that? we're not done allocating. we're still doing california. it's possible senator sanders catches up. here we are on the thursday after super tuesday, joe biden has won 509 delegates. bernie sanders has won 449 of the delegates so far. that's 43% of those allocated so far. he would need to win 53% of the remaining pledged delegates to get to 1991. that is a conversation i don't think many people thought we would be having. >> no. it's not. i mean, look, it was clear that biden was not dead as a candidate, but it was clear that a lot of energy had been taken from him, and while donald trump obviously hurt himself by going after hunter biden, joe biden's son, he hurt joe biden as well. there were a lot of questions that i think joe biden had trouble answering about his son's work in ukraine, and which he is going to get again. one challenge for the campaign is going to be

how do you see this race shapg up for specifically joe biden and bernie sanders >> it really is a joe story now. to take that south carolina win into super tuesday and probably the tighten window with no other news and turn that into the roll he he had which had to be breathtaking to watch. he won in states he never visited, never put a field office or spent a dime in. the big wins in massachusetts and minnesota. >> how did that happen that you could take a former vice president and have an election victory in those states he never really campaigned in? was it because of amy klobuchar throwi throwing support there or the other rivals that now back joe biden? >> it appears what they are looking for is that candidate that could capture the large center lane of the party looking at the sentder polls, they are looking at the candidate best positioned to beat drup. a lot of voters are concerned he can't do that. they were hopeful biden could because of his win in south carolina he showed him there is a case for it >> let's talk about the action today, how much do you think the moves will h

bernie sanders as nominee of party. so there's a better scenario for joe biden at the other extreme, which is bernie sanders is up by, you's say 50, 60, 70 delegates. that's the best case scenario for joe biden. that's an eminently closeable gap especially given a lot of the states further down the calendar for biden where he is going to do well presuming again the south carolina result replicates. a state like georgia. a state like mississippi, and then the acela corridor, delaware, where biden is from and similar states like thatyou could close a 50 or 70 gap. what the biden campaign hopes for, i can tell you right now, over/under, 150 delegates. if they can get through this and survive and wake up on wednesday and be 150 pledged delegates behind, or less, they are going to consider that a good night for them. internally. anything north of 150 is when it starts to get into problems and start to have a gap they will be very, very hard pressed to close. pay attention to that number when we get through the other side of the super tuesday vote. >> that's an important number. the over/under, important number. john heilemann

get distributed almost by proportional representation so even though bernie sanders is doing well at the moment in texas with joe biden being very close behind him bernie sanders might win texas but he might not get so many more delegates than joe biden and that is what's going to be crucial as we head towards the democratic party convention and deciding who stands against donald trump come november the thought yeah and it's still a way to go before that convention alan fischer thank you very much for that allen in austin texas for us let's continue this discussion and analysis of these results with our u.s. guests now a special panel from the united states joining us in washington d.c. adolfo franco is a republican strategist and was an adviser to senator john mccain also in washington d.c. now finds a butler and is with a former senior advisor to common a harris. for the people she's currently a partner for s s c r b strategies and joins us from. washington d.c. but also in d.c. with us jennifer victor a professor of political science at george mason university thank you very much for being with us all of you. let m

joe biden. bernie sanders is saying not so fast trying major distinctions with joe biden here in michigan. ar more is at stake here than the 125 delegates. the biggest prize of all today, it is one of the last best places for bernie sanders to make his argument that he is for working people, that he is for younger people across the industrial midwest. the calendar does not get better after michigan. in fact, ohio state, illinois next week. next month it's wisconsin, pennsylvania. clearly bernie sanders to keep going knows he needs to show strength here. joe biden trying to close out this campaign in michigan and move onto the matter at hand with donald trump. there's no question that democrats are eager to coalesce around one candidate. let's see how michigan votes today to see how fast that goes. christine and laura. >> jeff zeleny, thank you. >>> wall street desperate for a rebound after just an historic selloff. can they bounce back and hold it today? cnn business has a look at markets around the world next. want to brain better? unlike ordinary memory supplements- neuriva has clinically

those who aren't for bernie sanders, they rallied in a hurry to joe biden. >> ed: 12.5 million per delegate for bloomberg. embarrassing showing. i don't want to forget about bernie sanders. look at the headline from "the new york times." democrats decide joe biden as risky as he ever was the best headline. risky as he ever was. bernie sanders, we think he won in california. we'll see how big the spread is in terms of delegate. he could pick up a lot more delegates. joe biden didn't lose the problems he had. there was a reason why his campaign was given up for dead which among other things is the gaffes. >> we saw some on the stage last night during the victory speech. with bernie sanders there is a two-fold problem. number one, he had a week or so window he could have consolidated some of his support and built toward milwaukee. instead he railed against the establishment and praising fidel castro. a lot of people trying to wrap their minds around bernie sanders as their nominee, they couldn't. it gave extra oxygen to joe biden. secondly bernie we played the clip, he keeps talking about the

bernie sanders could clean up and do very well in those states. i think the key, if you're joe biden, you continue to ride this momentum. can you challenge bernie sanders? can you lessen that lead that bernie sanders has in california and texas? i think no doubt bernie will win those two states. >> a lot of interesting things to watch tonight. we'll be following it closely. and i know you're gonna keep us up-to-date. thank you. >>> bernie sanders voted in his home state of vermont this morning. that's where he'll hold his election night rally. and he won vermont by a huge margin, which was expected. he is also the favorite to win in california which has the most delegates at stake tonight. elizabeth warren cast her ballot in cambridge, massachusetts, she's holding an election night event in detroit. and michael bloomberg was campaigning in florida today. he'll be in west palm beach for an event. >>> former vp, joe biden, was in the bade area this morning he want spoke with supporters at the buttercup diner in oakland. yesterday he received endorsements from former rivals, amy cloeb k

joe biden at this hour. estate that bernie sanders had thought he could topple amy klobuchar. late support to joe biden and that contest now leans to joe biden, which means he has the edge and that contest . i want to check in with anthony salvanto who is at our decision desk in new york. anthony? >> reporter: hey norah. we said minnesota was a lien to biden and as the boat starts to come in from the twin cities, he is running even with bernie sanders. and, that is an area where you might have expected bernie sanders to do especially well. but, it seems like as long as biden runs even with him there, he will do pretty well statewide. and in massachusetts, too we are going back and forth on this. but, it looks like sort of the same deal. in the boston area, a lot of liberal democrats show that it is also even between biden and sanders. as long as biden can keep up that pace, it seems like he is in pretty good shape in both of those states. >> all right anthony. also, again on minnesota i am looking at the numbers. biden spent $6000 in minnesota. i mean it is just breathtaking, t

one thing is clear from last night, it shaping up to be a two-person race, joe biden, bernie sanders. both campaigns are plotting how to move forward with next week's races, joe biden now the delegate winner after the delegate-rich state of texas and bernie sanders added to his delegate haul but fell short in some key memoli joining us and shaquille brewster. how are they feeling and how are they forging ahead in the six states that vote six days from now? >> reporter: craig, the biden team always felt about about the super tuesday on how it was shaping up for them than a lot of us thought that they would be. one is the time steyer effect, the billionaire dropping off the map once voters had to make a decision. the other is something we're going to hear more from the campaign about going forward and this is the idea that joe biden is the one who is the enthusiasm candidate, able to run up the score among african-americans but also among suburban voters in places where swing voters will be key to the general election. you heard a little bit about this from joe biden last night. let's t

i know you spoke with joe biden and bernie sanders yesterday. >> not today. not today. need some space around this and i want to take a little time to think a little more. >> after declining to endorse biden or sanders at this time, warren was asked if she had any advice for women who supported her but are now forced with a choice between two men. >> i wonder what your message is to the women and girls who feel like we're left with two white men to decide between. >> one of the hardest parts of this is all those promises and all those little girls who are going to have to wait four more years. that's going to be hard. >> both biden and sanders spoke with warren by phone yesterday before her decision to drop out. in the fight to win over her supporters, it is already under way. in a tweet biden praised warren called her the fiercest of fighters for the middle class fames adding we needed her voice in this race and still need her voice in the senate. sanders made a direct suppoplea her supporters. >> senator warren has made it clear that we have a corrupt political system

democratic presidential candidates joe biden and bernie sanders faced off in the one-on-o-one debate sunday nigh. first they clashed on how to respond to the coronavirus pandemic, medicare-for-all, the climate crisis, joe biden's record, and whether or not the u.s. needs a revolution. practicing social distancing, that would have been unimaginable even a week ago, did not shake hands. they touched elbows when they greeted each other, and stood six feet apart at the cnn-univision debate, which was held with no audience in washington, d.c., instead of phoenix, arizona, due to concerns about the coronavirus. in the course of the two-hour debate, joe biden promised his running mate would be a woman. bernie sanders said in all likelihood, so would his running mate beat. dedicated toet was the coronavirus pandemic. the two also faced off on immigration, authoritarianism around the globe, and appealing to african american and latinx voters. they did not discuss the upcoming primaries in arizona, illinois, florida, and ohio this tuesday, where elections will go on despite all four states havi

was meantthis debate to be a showdown between bernie sanders and joe biden. face-off was at the coronavirus. the debate was initially said to arizona,e in phoenix, and right here in washington, -- any avoid done unnecessary travel. muchutbreak was very centerstage and very much the focus of the conversation, taking up about one third of the debate. it underlines the differences between the two candidates. biden focused on immediate and concrete solutions to the current crisis while bernie sanders used it as evidence of a broken system, falling back on his economic message, focusing on medicare for all and income inequality. didsenator from vermont attack joe biden on his past voting record. present -- joe biden said he would c commit to having a woman vice president. when pressed by moderators, bernie sanders said, in all likelihood, i will. >> a new government after winning the endorsement of a narrow majority of lawmakers on sunday, w with another inconclusive national election this month. this is all a shockining blow to benjamin netanyahu, but it orsn't e

787 delegates for joe biden, 647 for bernie sanders, 140 delegates. guys, that is a huge haul right now for joe biden and very real questions whether or not bernie sanders has a path as this race continues, guys. >> phil, those maps are so helpful to just see the sea of dark or light blue. thank you very much for walking us through all of those counties and districts. we'll check back with you. >>> former vice president joe biden is getting closer, as you could see from phil's report, to the democratic nomination, and questions this morning about what senator bernie sanders will do next. cnn's arla saenz is live in philadelphia with more. what's the feeling there? >> reporter: joe biden certainly had a lot to celebrate here in philadelphia as he took command of the democratic primary race last night. it's very difficult or hard to understate what a remarkable turn of events these past ten days have been for joe biden. after losing those first three nominating contests, he has now taken direct command and is on the march towards the democratic nominatio
