this is vermont strong. it is the incredible resilience found in our extensive community, the faith governor weeks described. it is not just during floods. sheldon carroll wanted to offer a helping hand. as the owner of a downtown restaurant, he began taping receipts for free meals on the front window for folks to claim with no questions asked. patrons at the restaurant saw this and started chipping in, adding more meals to the window, warm food on a cold day, dinner out for those who might not otherwise be able to afford it. that is what community looks like. no one asked sean to do this. he saw a way to use his skills to help his neighbors and he and his customers stepped up. so did families in coventry after learning a school playground was not safe. they did not sit back and wait for someone else to fix the problem. they bought a few swings and other basics and then rallied support to help finish the job. with everyone pulling in the same direction, in a matter of weeks, they rebuilt better than before.

vermonters are pioneers who serve others. that is the vermont i know. those are the people i know. basic human decency. giving a helping hand to others even of those we don't agree who wedon't even like that much. this is the foundation the bedrock of our community. with traditions and values meet pass along to the next generation. woke up before dawn for decades to water 200 flowerpots. no one asked them to do it. because he started 3:00 a.m. in the morning not many knew he did. and took this for granted. he was in his 70s he was looking to hang up his watering can. the question is who's going to water the flowers? across the state from everywhere else in between, there are things large and small that build community and give these in places character and identity. so i'm going to talk directly to them. is that the flowers during the holidays? is it the senior center or playground youth sports or the local theater,ie food pantry the good work done by the rotary, elks, vfw and american legion. whatever it is if it matters to you it's time to step s up get involved make sure it for

vermont has a large by vermont standards working class, a white population. white people without college degrees in rural areas. this area in vermont. >> they call it the northeast kingdom. this is a culturally distinct area of vermont. it was friendly towards barack obama but shifted towards donald trump. a section that got more republican with donald trump and stayed that way in 2020. expect trump to rack up big margins here. we'll see. vermont is an interesting contest. the other state where polls are closing less than an hour from now is virginia. the same as vermont. very unimpressive. rubio at 32%. rubio thought he was going to win but he came very close. there's a big split. the northern suburbs of washington, d.c., and the suburbs of richmond and to some extent down into virginia beach area versus a few independent cities, the rest of the state. there are collectively large rural working class white populations. shenandoah valley. in the population centers outside of washington, d.c., out of richmond you have the haley friendly, college plus, suburban

so hitting 50% in vermont?1 right now technically to get all 17 delegates short of that you take 17 divided by 2 and that's your answer california's can go to trump probably we'll see the outcome there. 's important but the bigger question is jesters broadly speaking because while trump leads in the polls now some more than others have at hiers so he likes to be in good shape for november the doesn't mean november 5th is gonna be the biggest event in the history of the country but it's a day we are pointing towards in just a day he would be wise to count on it being a close election and reach for all votes he can get his hands on. it's coming from unlikely places coming from urban america a little bit, 3 or 5% coming from working-class people a lot of the nikki haley voters are protest voters who won't ever vote for trump. i don't think she has much sway over them so i don't know what her bargaining chip is we should look at the people proclaiming donald trump's political death. donald trump is finally finished

and let's go back to vermont. she just jumped nikki haley as 48.3% of the vote over donald trump, 48.3 for some of the bone nikki haley has jumped ahead of donald trump. that's only three votes more than donald trump. that's a 28% of the estimated vote david chalian, what do you guys getting in there at the at the exit poll? >> we're also tracking delegates here tonight. jake and i got to tell you what place that nikki haley is not getting anything is in the realm of delegates tonight. >> there are >> 865 delegates at stake tonight on this super tuesday in the republican contest, we have been able to allocate 109 delegates so far. all to donald trump. nikki haley, zero delegates so far tonight, this the story of the night, donald trump stretching his delegate lead to an almost insurmountable place. so far 109 tonight, look at now where he's totals are to date in this contest you need 1,215 delegates to become the republican presidential nominee, donald trump, 385. now, nikki haley way back at 43, that is going to

and takes vermont but not going to be enough. domenech joins us now. >> ben: great to be with you. this news just broke. >> ben: just broke. >> brian: i wonder if you would start with your father-in-law. the bitterness you weren't married to your wife then, but the bitterness after george w. bush and john mccain after that primary, it was so hard for them to get back together because feelings were so raw. can they learn something from having eventually having got back together? >> ben: i think there are some things to learn about this. i also think this was an absolutely dominant performance. there were some ways that this could have broken differently and you might have had a different conversation today. you know, the possibility, you know, of her taking virginia, for instance, which was something that a lot of people thought was viable. turns out not to be true at all. the swamp couldn't deliver for her there the bureaucrats that really run northern virginia were not enough. one of the things we have to keep in mind about this

vermont, this is shocking to me and senator sanders, vermont is one of only two states that does nothave the benefit of that facility. >> i know when we spoke about this, you indicated that we were going to get one. but you classified that you misspoke and it was going to be a reporting facility instead. reporting facility is not worth it. reporting would mean that people have to go to providence, rhode island. that is a long away from burlington. or they would have to go to new hampshire or boston. so it just doesn't do the job. after you classified that, you indicated that the vermont delegation researched the matter and at the residential facility was necessary, you may change course. we did our research. most promptly, we checked with the attorneys and most importantly with our federal judges. and i would ask for unanimous consent to enter senator peters into the record. >> so noted. >> the borough of prisons on friday that you planned to proceed against our consensus and not provide the residential our office did speak to the stakeholders, including the chief judge crawford and

the composer also showing that donald trump is leading in nationwide pulling net, vermont. yeah, look at that. i think let's be clear here. mickey healey wins vermont and nicky healey, wens dc. guess what? they don't matter. they're both totally blue states and they're always going to be blue states in the foreseeable future. it's the, it's the bernie sanders state. it's the 96 percent democrats state in, in, in washington dc. nikki haley wins them because they never would vote for trump anyway. the real point is that if you look at the national polling and you look at the, the, the series of national polling, it's going on now for, for months now, across the board. donald trump is consolidated support among the republican right. not just consolidated support, but he's also consolidated a view of these are the republicans who still think brock obama was a most of these are the republicans who still think brock obama wasn't born here. these are republicans who in 7080 percent believe that joe biden is not a legitimate president. this is a problem in the republican party. and

i win vermont as the current projection goes.— win vermont as the current projection goes.projection goes. i don't know that half the british people i that half the british people know where their monitors. i keep confusing it with new hampshire, i go up with my pale for maple street and they say i am in the wrong state. so she won vermont she is a great candidate and she will be a front runner in 2028. but she is no longer relevant in 2024. will she pull out or say look what happens in an open primary where republicans, democrats and independent get to vote for me as opposed to a closed one? if a tree falls in the forest and known as there doesn't matter if it made a sound. what she says is not relevant, what donald trump says is very relevant and we should pay attention to what he says in kelly slater because he is republican nominee as of tonight, joe biden is the democratic nominee and across america people are going what the hell? ~ . ., america people are going what the hell? ~ . ,, ., the hell? when frank talks about you _ the hell? when frank talks about you guys _

portion of our boat. vermont isn't the bernie sanders state that you think it is. we have a republican governor. we've re elected numerous times is actually one most popular governors in the state. there is maybe not, there's not a whole lot. there are opportunities for republicans to get votes out of even places like for my, for full of crossover motors. the republican party, though, is chosen not to when you take a look at states like north carolina and virginia, then nicky healey voters who came out according to actually pulling 2 thirds of them in both states. and these are swing states so that they wouldn't vote for donald trump if he was in domini, at james's right. and, and ran a to about this idea that republicans have chosen to go in the direction that closes them off. that actually narrows their prospects. there are voters to win in north carolina in virginia. it's even in vermont if republicans get a band in this races, xena phobic based that they've double down to and that they've incited. so on that side, this is a problem for trump. you can't win with

number one, you see the math, you see the one haley victory in vermont. congratulations, but you see just from coast to coast so far. and again, what david just said, i mean, the challenge if you're donald trump tonight, you're getting 90% of the delegates. remember, 2016, there was talk of we would there be a contested convention that's why i picked mike pence satisfy christian conservatives and evangelicals that he was fine. that'll trump it's not head to formally clinching, which will be next week. and then and beyond in a position of quote, unquote weakness when it comes to the republican party, this will be his convention. unlike 2016, obviously 2020 was his convention. but if you pull that up, you just look at the breadth of it. now, the question just now is just when does he get over thousand tonight? most probably. most likely, yes. and then he can clinch next week. so you're looking through it and that's just that's the issue of it, right. main. is a very different state than california. he's getting 71% of the vote. vermont is his weak spot toni

vermont primary really too close to call.in for us the fun one right i know, and but explae reasonc why why we're seeing vee does well in states that allow independents to vote. and so the super tuesday states, both virginia and vermont allow independents to vote in the republican primary. secondly she does very well among educated voters and suburban voters, which have been a problem for president trump. and again, population. the republican party in vermont tends to be pretty moderate. and so i think what we're seeing is that's a state where she she might end up carrying the state that would be in order to have any impact att- the convention. so it's still unlikely that she'll, you know, gain a lot of momentum from tonight. but it does point out that president trump still has difficulty winning suburban voters and betterúeducated voters. >> and it's making tonight a so let's talk about the localay- kind of big races who will fill the seat of the late senator dianne feinstein andúwho will replace anna eshoo in congress, who

if we can, in vermont 17 delegates at stake. donald trump still eking out a win there right now, 49.3% of the vote 50,382 votes. that's 776 votes more than nikki haley, who has 46.9% of the vote. that's with an estimated 45% of the essence made it vote in, in the commonwealth of massachusetts, 40 delegates at stake. donald trump is still with a commanding lead, 57.4 that was just updated 57 0.5% of the vote, 24,592 votes. it's almost 1,000 votes more than nikki haley, who has 39% of the vote that just ticked back down 30 the 8.7% of the vote for nikki haley, donald trump, doing well in massachusetts, although it's only an estimated 7% of the vote in only 7% estimated vote in, in alabama 50 delegates at stake. >> donald trump >> with a commanding lead at 4.1% of the vote, 12,178 votes that's more than 10,000 votes, more than nikki haley, who has 12.2% of the vote, 12.2, that is within only estimated two 2% of the vote in still very early in the vote count in alabama. david chalian. where are we in delegates right now? because whi

still very close vermont.leading just 48.6%, 48% over nikkiey and it seems like we are going to vermont, the green mountain state down to the wire tonight soll keep an eye on that one. donald trump declared the winner in texas. most of the polls are closed in texas. there' a few that stay open until nine so they closed ten closed in texas and donald officially declare winner of the lone star state with 75.8 of the vote and nikki y had a 20% o vote. let me talk about a few more races in texas including the senate race, but i will show you the democraticide of the re joe biden declared the winner in texas for the presidency. now let me take you to the senate race. ted cruz is declared the winner of the republican primary to run for reelection no surprise there. the senate race is on that democrats are targeting. it was a wide-fid of flying the candidates running and the democratic congressman they are in texas with 65.6% of the ve. that's important because if you see about 50% of the r-u can turn up to the gener

nikki haley won vermont and congratulations to her. that was going to be much tighter than it appeared. she was shown polling 30 points behind. good for her temperature is almost impossible to see a credible path moving forward. she does not have campaign events scheduled past today, understand that is where it is. a number of down ballot items, mentioned earlier, california had interesting turnout in primary. a republican versus democrat in the senate race, that is in itself interesting that a republican advance. a republican won't win and points toward the fact there are a number of tight races within california that compose 18 that dnc want to take the house. a couple races, 22 and 47, one is valideo. by no means a walkover in district biden won by 13 points and same thing for porter's old district, katie porter is no longer in office because of a loss to schiff. no easy path forward for democrats winning back the house. >> todd: valedeo race is key for democrats if they want to take it back. let's focus on the presidency, does nikk

two of the states just closed virginia and vermont.numbers from vermont, but this is from virginia. trump and haley both made stops in that state last week. you can see just 1% of the vote in certainly a lot of votes to be leading haley 60% to 38. now in virginia on the democratic side, the associated press just moments ago called the race for president biden moments ago. you can see so far carrying 93% of that vote to marianne williamson's 4. now, iowa democrats did not go to the polls today, but they did release the results of their presidential caucus after disastrous issues with the caucus in previous years, the state turned to an all mail contest. the party also shuffled their primary calendar. those results released about an hour ago. president biden winning easily, the ap calling the race for him with 91% of the vote. so far, you can see uncommitted is 4. that's something important to watch throughout the night. now, here in california, polls close at 8 p.m. and a reminder the counting process can be slow. more than 22 million m

vermont, much tighter at this hour. polls actually close to three hours ago but cbs news charaterizes it as a toss-up between donald trump and nikki haley. more than half the votes in. this could be haley's only win of the night in this tiny state. trump picked up a win in virginia, receiving at least 39 delegates there. cbs news can also project that trump win in the state of tennessee. let's take a look at the democratic side. president biden picked up a win in north carolina as well as in minnesota. he did stave off the uncommitted option but it did get 15.5% of the vote. that uncommitted is a protest vote against biden and his response to the israel-hamas war. also let's take a look now at the national map. trump is already projected to win every other state that has close to tonight. arkansas, oklahoma, alabama, minnesota, and maine. it's also a similar dominant story if we look at the democratic map. president joe biden is facing little opposition and he's sweeping every super tuesday state. primaries are about am

she won vermont. and in states like north carolina and virginia, those were states where we thought that nikki haley could really run up the margins, for example in north carolina, macklenburg county, the suburbs of richmond, maybe the virginia beach hampton roads area, but that didn't really end up happening for her. it's hard to see how she can chart this path forward. i think it was interesting in her statement last night she sort of referenced donald trump's remarks calling for unity, saying we don't have unity in the republican party, so we don't really know what her path looks like going forward, but she clearly wants to represent this one part of the republican party that's very clearly a minority. >> julia, lastly and briefly, was there anything else that grabbed you last night either on the democratic side or perhaps down ballot race? >> the down ballot race in texas i thought was interesting. and this was sort of expected. we saw collin allred won that primary, the democratic primary will go

first, vermont.rump only got 32% of the vote when he first ran, and no party registration in vermont. if you think of yourself as a democrat or independent, you are free to vote in that primary. and then outside washington, d.c., huge concentrations there, suburbs with white college educated voters, and they have been friendly to nikki haley so far. if haley cannot win statewide, she can collect delegates in virginia and minnesota, and could be doing that in vermont as well. vermont and -- colorado as well. even if she's doing that, making noise in the states, and the rules in the other states and the democratic nature of the other states, unless haley pulls off monumental upsets and outright wins in trump area, she will get buried in the delegate math by the end of today. >> how is the nikki haley's campaign feeling about the burial super tuesday? >> they are not looking at the burial prospects, and instead focusing on the optimism they are seeing on the ground. the fact they see those voters that s

was not a surprise vermont not a total surprise i was surprised for my home state of massachusetts iki haley might do better with those numbers but speaking of numbers that surprised me in vermont how many voted for nikki haley and how many republicans in the exit polling in the interview say it was more of a symbolic vote against donald trump then necessarily for nikki haley and joe biden. one more number, 48 percent. and it's around the number of nikki haley voters >> gianna which are assessment at tonight super tuesday performance? >> i thought it would be donald trump. he is sweeping the field but it's only one person as we look ahead to the general election i am thinking about the notable things that donald trump must do to unite the party in order to be to joe biden i am looking at the exit polling from north carolina, virginia. but north carolina being a swing state. 78 percent of voters won't commit to the nominee and that would be donald trump. and that's got to be an issue. as he tries to unite the party. you absolutely need to look at those voters women especially an indep

but need in vermont. >> i'm happy to any new information and look at it.ting center it will hold more people -- >> we need to work on this more. they're two totally different things. the reentry center provides resources to people when they are coming back into society. the reporting center, it is a long y. there is no follow through, you don't get the resources. it is astonishing that the market study said that vermont is unique that we don't need or deserve or should have the benefit of the same services that are provided in every other state in this great country of ours. >> we can have further conversation. >> we want a reentry center that is what our chief judge is saying that we need. thank you. >> thwhen the bureau of prisons let correctional officers supervise adult inmates if the officer did not clear an fbi national crime center background and fingerprint check? >> they require that check prior to employment. >> if that is the case, i would like to say, not just for you, but my colleagues, if folks that have not passed an fbi background check are

recently, but donald trump has just been dominating her and vermont is the one state is on the ballothat has a close race, at least see donald trump is leading by a couple percentage points. but haley had been in the lead there, kind of going back and forth the of about 50% of the vote that has been counted there in vermont. north carolina is the other one that is pretty intriguing here as as we go back and forth with this, the the national summary, south carolina, obviously is the home state for nikki haley, north carolina. we wondered, you know, can she even be close there? well, not so far. all right. we're kind of flying all over the place here. trump with a 75% of the vote. nikki haley with 22%. here's the delegate count and we'll get you the drama mean soon. trump rphas a 288 delegates to nikki haley's. 43 so all indications are this is the coronation of donald trump for another run. but we just i just heard from our producer that colorado has been called for trump. so there are several states where that has been the case and will continue to follow the situation nationwide as w

one is vermont, winner take all state. if you get the majority of the vote in vermont, you get all 17 delegates. vermont was not a good state for donald trump in the 2016 republican primaries. you look at the results here. trump got 32.5% in vermont, barely beat john kasich. this was one of trump's worst showings in 2016. no party registration in vermont, independents, democrats, if you think of yourself as one of those, you can vote in this republican primary. right away, that could be a target for nikki haley. also closing at 7:00 tonight, take a look in virginia, again, look at the 2016 results in virginia, trump won this state, but that was an underwhelming performance for donald trump relative to what we saw in other states. you'll see this population dense washington, d.c. suburbs of northern virginia, they do give out some delegates in virginia that are based on the congressional district result. there is three delegates right in that northern virginia, d.c. area, three districts where haley could certainly win. and

vermont of course, is the most stark example of this.hat's where nikki haley actually wins her first state of this entire election cycle. she adds that to the district of columbia, and it's right outside of dc, in the suburbs in virginia, that you see other potential warning signs. this is a state that donald trump wins by 30 points in virginia. but in these immediate suburbs, you've got nikki haley winning by 15, 17 points in some of these. in some of these places, 50 points in arlington right outside of dc. so obviously that's not enough to overcome the strength that haley has in other parts of that state and a part across the country. but it does tell you that there are lots of republican voters out there that are resistant to the idea of donald trump running again, and those independents are crucial. >> tell us about the uncommitted on the democratic side, because there was a lot of hay made in michigan, and now we're seeing it pop up in other states. yeah. >> and this is kind of one of the biggest surprises of, of the of the evening

. >> i am from vermont.e state of the union i would love to hear the president addressed unity as a country. i think it is important for an office that spans multiple issues and all states in the u.s. there are issues with unity and coming together to make us stronger and better. >> i am from silver spring, maryland. the number one issue for me right now is cease-fire in gaza. that is what i want to hear the president talk about and that's what i want to see him work for immediately. and stop giving israel weapons. >> i am from memphis, tennessee. i would like to see the president address some economic is with the increase in global warming and climate change. i would also like to see some conversation around education and funding towards that, especially as we see in southern states, especially tennessee. the economic disparities between states and their education fund s, becauhe results in a large de between where people are graduating high school at. and that is a very important issue to address that woul

nikki haley with 89 delegates, she won vermont. polls show donald trump beating president biden head-to-head. trump from mar-a-lago on the big super tuesday win. >> our poll numbers are so much higher than joe biden's. he's the worst president in the history of our country, there has never been anything like what is happening to our country. they want open borders and open borders are going to destroy our country. we need borders and free and fair elections and we don't have a country. >> lucas: one big question, how long will nikki haley stay in the race, she raised 12 million in february. she said, we're honored to have received support of millions across the country today, including in vermont where nikki haley became first woman to win two presidential contests. president joe biden path nomination left little in doubt, in michigan uncommitted vote plagues the campaign. look at minnesota, nearly 2-10 voted uncommitted. in north carolina 12.7% voted no preference. president biden lost in the south pacific in american samoa, where

i would like to bring in our guest from vermont, mr. halali, and well we see that netanyahu launch. the war claiming to achieve certain goals and none of those goals have been achieved yet, and now the protesters are out on the streets demanding uh some kind of negotiation, some kind of deal with hamas to um get the uh those who have been uh imprisoned to get them released, so what do you think this means? well, i think first and foremost what my distinguished colleague mr. barakat said was absolutely right that this is now a cannibalistic situation within israeli society and within israeli politics uh on who is more far right and who wants to do more destruction and more displacement than the other and i think that what you are seeing here of course is a blame game uh over who allowed uh 7th of october to happen who allowed for the hostages to continue to be in this predicament. and so on, but ultimately what i think is most important to understand is that the zionist regime has already lost on the battlefield and it already has lost i

now, looking back , vermont, you looking back, vermont, you mentioned, vermont. go for nikki haley.as haley. you know, new england has always had a history of different republicans . you got, different republicans. you got, you know, the two ladies from maine, susan collins and olympia snowe, one retired, one still in the senate. remember vermont the senate. i remember vermont back in the day, had a senator, jim jeffords, back 2000 who jim jeffords, back in 2000 who switched, became independent. and when the democratic and the republican margin was 5050, gave, sort of gave the, dick cheney the tie breaking vote. i'm sorry, he took away from cheney the tie breaking vote in 2001. so long story short, it's been pretty interesting to see how nikki haley only won washington, dc. which is a it's not a state. it's a very different breed of its own, and then vermont, trump has a lock in this party. i'm a democrat. you know, i, i generally, you know, vote based on the person i have voted from time to time for the right person. if that person happened to be a republican in local elections, i

it is a small hope, the state of vermont.in she's on top right now some people might say this is completely ridiculous. the question is how long is nikki haley going to stay in if she wins one state, she still has a lot of money she sent some leadership teams to different states. possibly she stays in, but it would be really, really tough, guys whether when we look at all the states voting tonight donald trump winning 11 of them, nikki haley possibly wink vermont. >> we mentioned it, but could those legal challenges for donald trump derail his campaign this fall? we will get into that. licalel learndhe potil one, right after this.
