the washington post abc did a poll that shows most americans are not that worried about sica and were much more worried about ebola. i think that conversation will change once you get the first locally transmitted case. there may be one we don't even know about because testing for this is so tricky. infected and you get tested, they can find the virus in your blood in a very small window but most people who get zika don't have any symptoms and even if you don't have it, it's a very mild and looks like other things. if you have it and are not symptomatic and also happen to , that is really dangerous. in the united states, the parts of the country most susceptible are along the gulf coast but it's also where you have the climate conditions and in neighborhoods where you don't have air-conditioning or screens or there are a lot of small plastic containers. >> you brought up some of the studies that have been going on studiesd news about the have been going on. do you the cdc feels like at this point, they have their arms around the knowns and unknowns or how worried are they about what t

you have washington post abc news poll. 56% of americans think comey made a mistake.ggering number to me, not that i didn't think comey messed up i just didn't think so many americans agreed with it. it will have an impact. >> maybe ratings are better than we thought for the show. the numbers surprise me too. i have to say, when nicole and i were talking about jeb bush last night. you know, the i can't vote for either one absolutely drives me crazy in a man who ran for president. he wanted to be president of the united states. they have to make decisions where they think they have two bad alternatives. they can't just say i'm not going to decide. he should decide. >> got to make a decision. >> and i can't let this pass. we had when we came in the discussion on whether things were horrible, we were falling off a cliff. it was 1968. we had a discussion last week about this. i saw a lot after the horrors of dallas and baton rouge and minneapolis that showed me this weekend that we weren't as divided as people thought. i saw a lot of people on the left reaching to the cen

that's, that is huge in "the washington post"/abc poll, don't you think? >> yeah. of course.ause they know the facts. remember what took place here. they -- secretary clinton, according to huma abedin's deposition, secretary clinton set up this e-mail arrangement entirely to avoid the information going public. and she stores on this thing, she controls it all, her private information, her work investigation, clinton foundation information, and, of course, classified information all on this private server arrangement they set up. they set it up to avoid anything going public and any of the american people knowing about it. then they get caught. when they get caught, their lawyers say, you know what? clinton says her and her legal team will decide which ones go to the government and which ones they keep. once they did the separations, the ones they kept, they destroyed them all. and mr. comey testified last week they destroyed thousands of documents that should have been made public, went to the government and that people should be able to see. and after they destroy canned tho

according to "the washington post," abc news, cheesecake factory poll, voters favor donald trump over hillary clinton 46% to 44%. ( audience reacts ) but how do you feel about it? ( laughter ) okay, 46% to 44%. if you do the math, that only adds up to 90%. because the final 10% just kept whispering "kill me." ( laughter ) ( cheers and applause ) and then, bernie sanders burst out of their chest-- ( laughter ) that's not a real impression of bernie sanders. that doesn't really seem like him at all. polls also show that trump and clinton are the two most unpopular likely presidential nominees in the history of the poll. at this point, any third candidate would be more likeable than these two. we could be looking at president ( laughter ) i should have gone for that. i should have gone for the man bun. >> jon: you could pull that off. >> stephen: i could have done that. that's a pretty good look. so clinton and trump are already attacking each other, which is going to make things really awkward when she attends his next wedding. ( laughter

meantime a new "washington post" abc news find 56% of the americans disapprove the fbi recommendationiminally charge clinton. only 35% improved. harris, you're confused as i was in this doublespeak. other people were sending it to me. why would i second-guess them. they had more -- it is exhausting. harris: it is, it is, it was, it was kind of around and around. the study you pointed to, predominantly people thought it would affect the way they look at her trustworthiness overall. means less how they feel about the email situation than what they point to. many were democrats. most of them were independents if you drilled down into the study. melissa: sandra, what do you think about that. sandra: so, mr. comey said fbi discovered several thousand more work-related emails not turned over to the state department. almost in the same breath, in the same day she says she turned over every document in my possession when the state department requested it. i don't get it. what are we watching for, judge? is there possibility out there, she will stop, i was wrong. here's the truth. >> yeah, no.

sandra: meantime a new "washington post/abc news poll" shows hillary clinton slightly ahead of trumpto 43%. but losing ground. the same poll just last month showed clinton leading by 12 points. i wish chris wallace was here to talk about the conversation with reince priebus. how did that go? what are his expectations? >> well, look, there is a theory in politics called the open window theory. there are only a few times during the course of campaign, not political junkies like us, the average american opens his window and looking in and taking new information. a convention and particularly the acceptance speech by the nominee is one of those times of open windows. so this week is very important. this is an opportunity for trump in a sense, to reintroduce himself to the american people. and, it, look, trump had a lot of mistakes in the campaign and still only four points behind clinton. this is still absolutely winnable by him. seems to me has got to do two things. one, he has to project strength. that is easy. he has done that. he has to say i'm the tough guy and law and order candida

and clinton is hoping she can capitalize on the president's popularity in a newly released washington post/abcoll, president obama's ratings, 56%, that's the highest since may 2011 after the killing of osama bin laden. former pennsylvania governor and mr. watkins who served in the george h.w. bush administration. happy holiday, nice to see you. ed, i love the outfit. very patriotic. >> i'm on my way to a fourth of july parade. >> i love it, thanks for stopping in before that. let me start with what we just mentioned. obama's star power out there for hillary clinton. you'd think it helps her a lot? >> no doubt. president obama is amazing at turning out base democrats. he's almost 90% popular among democrats and has a tremendous effect on the base. we had a supreme court election last year, an offyear election, we sent a letter from president obama into homes, democratic homes in philadelphia and pittsburgh, kind of unprecedented turnout for judicial election. so he can turn that like nobody can and joe biden can speak to those blue collar union guys who are reagan democrats, who are being affec

the washington post abc news poll has hillary clinton ahead with 47 percent donald trump's order three percent still puts them within the margin of error. very similar results in an nbc wall street journal poll which also gives hillary clinton the edge 46 to 41. clinton has a slightly bigger lead in the cnn orc poll where she leads trump 49 to 42 percent. joining us now, john mccormick, sing writer at the weekly standard. were getting ready to essentially coordinate donald trump the candidate at the republican national convention. but the mood of the country in light of the dallas and baton rouge attacks on police , pretty grim right now. is that the kind of thing that can sway these numbers, john? reporter: it's evidence, international event and certainly could one way or the other. all the holes you mentioned, those were taken after the dallas attack on the police officers down there to whether this might take a long time to play we don't know what hillary clinton is still ahead, a little bit closer, you will have to see if there's more of a backlash and donald trump is saying he's a

the same poll had obama -- you said the "washington post"/abc -- >> right. >> had obama with a 56% approval> you just implied he was. you implied his policies were on the ballot. >> he may be personally popular but his policies clearly have got people upset. >> i think what's going to be tested here is this the first time we're going to have a president actively campaigning for a nominee of his own party? and it's a popular president, and so you guys, you know, are testing the proposition, the third-term jinx which is very hard to break of a party -- >> reagan broke it. >> versus a popularity of this president. >> just to come back to senator sanders at the end, i mean, david makes a point about the president. the first lady was here tonight, elizabeth warren was here tonight. they signaled before, they did it passionately tonight, the president will do it later, they signaled they're all in. the point when bernie sanders e- first endorsed, the wounds were still raw, just getting through it. is he doing it because he feels he has to or wants to? is he doing it because he's going to be out t

there was "washington post" abc poll saying 56% of the american people disagree with the fbi not to chargeher. >> and that americans believe that the presidential campaign is adding to the division in this country. we've spent more time in this presidential campaign talking about whether donald trump will commit to reading from a teleprompter. i've said this before, but being able to read off of a screen is a credential for third grade, not for the white house. and today in his speech, what he proposed was moving towards privatizing the v.a., 64% of veterans oppose. this is a man who said on the record that he opposes the post 9/11 g.i. bill. this is not a man who is a friend of veterans. we lose that when we spend so much time on whether he can stay on message, which we we know he is constitutionally incapable of doing.. >> here is what we've seen with donald trump. what we saw last summer was he came out with a plan for the veteran's affairs administration. this has been an utter disaster under the clinton administration, under b the obama administration. the wait times are continuing to

a "washington post"-abc news poll reveals clinton's lead has dropped considerably month to month.showed her ahead by 12 points last month. now she is ahead by 4 point among registered voters. how does he close that gap? joining me is the chair of the republican national committee. let's take a look at some of the internals of this poll. let's look at how trump is doing with women. there is the number with women voters. that's a big deficit. >> any republican candidate will start out with a deficit among young women. the convention is an opportunity for donald trump to solidify the base. that's why you see up an emphasis on his family during the convention. he has all his children speaking. ivanka will speak thursday night just before her father. that's a way of bringing young women into the fold to show she herself has been a successful business woman. martha: she talks about how her father encouraged her as a young woman to get into business and do well. we'll see how that goes before he gets on the big stain. let's look at how he's doing with voters under the able of 30. hillary

but a recent "the washington post"/abc news poll suggests majority of registered voters want a president to put the nation in a different direction and the presidential candidate to do that is donald trump. >> thank you. >> reporter: clinton got a taste of her aspirations speaking behind a podium with a presidential seal and hitching a ride aboard air force one. >> when i look at president obama, i see a leader with heart, depth, and humility. >> reporter: and while clinton and the president heaped praise on each other during their first joint appearance, it was a dramatic change from their rivalry eight years ago. >> you were a corporate lawyer sitting on the board of walmart. >> when you were practicing law and representing your contributor in his column landlord business in inner city chicago. >> reporter: president obama is hoping that he can help convince skeptical bernie sanders supporters to support clinton but many of those sander' supporters are waiting just how enthusiastic sanders is in endorsing her. >> chip, thank you. >>> republicans today are expected to unveil the full sl

a "washington post" abc poll that shows the rate is tightening.people are paying close attention but the convention is often the beginning of the campaign in ernest in terms of the larger public and their paying attention to what is going on here and we see some of the numbers tightening up as we look at the polls. this is a big moment this week for donald trump. he's going to try to create a more serious front. they have been doing a decent job of that the past few weeks. have haven't been a lot of trump moments that have people raising eyebrows saying what is he up to. pence on the ticket gives the grounding and reaction has been fairly positive to the ticket. >> i think you are right. it is a stability move. not firing up a lot of the gop but i think the pence pick is 'lanchely been well received, at least in the gop establishment and other places. i agree with you that there's going to be a focus on whether donald trump terms, as we have been watching issues these statements. he's been using the law and order phrase a lot in the last couple of

the latest "washington post"/abc news poll, respondents were asked if they saw trump as biassed againstnaire and co-founder of paypal, peter thiel, championing the trump candidacy as the one person who can help build the american economy and advance technology. the billionaire behind some of the largest companies in silicon valley. >> i don't pretend to agree with every plank in our party's platform, but fake culture wars distract us from our economic decline. i am proud to be gay. i am proud to be a republican. [ applause ] >> it was historic. he also later discovered to be secretly funding hulk hogan's lawsuit against gawker. the other reason you might know his name which, again, bankrupted the company. back to ivanka, we've seen more efforts to make girls be more confident and problem solving, math, science. she seems to be a model woman. >> from all appearances. >> she was touting ideas that are generally associated with the democratic party and got a rush of applause from a republican audience, could this be a sign that maybe we're not as divided as we think and maybe the parties c

july 20th poll by the "washington post," abc news showed 38% of women said they would vote for trumpe election was held that day. 52% said they would vote for clinton. today, former soap opera star and member of the women in business for trump coalition, kimberlin wants to change those numbers and believes trump is the right candidate and joins me now here in cleveland. thank you so much. >> thank you for having me. >> you are a speaker actually. was this sort of your most prominent involvement in politics? >> this is pretty much my first involvement in politics, so i guess it is prominent. >> they approach you? did you go to them and say you wanted to get involved? >> no. they actually approached me. i went to an event in anaheim for women in business, and there was a forum set up where women got up on stage and talked about the concerns that they have and the things that are affecting them in business, and i got up and i spoke as well, and i guess somebody heard me speak there and they invited me to come here. >> this week caitlyn jenner, also in town, said it was easier to come ou

i think ours is the best -- the "washington post" abc news poll is also a good, pew research center isd. right now there's a rough con senn ses on the average of polls of four or five points. >> national weather service before fbi. >> that's right. that's right. we will see whether that had a significant effect. >> when you talk about -- you got 40 and 40. we're either talking about the middle 20 or the middle 15. i mean, it's bizarre. >> yep. >> all right. what -- >> john, who is your vice presidential pick? >> 121 days. >> my vice presidential pick? for hillary, i want her to pick al franken. >> for trump? >> for trump, well, let me think about that. can i get back to you on that? >> man, you're going to weasel out of it? >> i'm a weasel. i think you're probably right about pence. i wish -- either pence or -- does it matter? i don't know when you got -- >> were you going to say kudlow? >> kudlow has some ideas that i thought had sommer it. i don't know what will finally happen. >> i wanted to make sure you weren't picking kudlow? >> no. he's my treasury secretary or commerce or labor

i mean, you know, i have to say the investigative units at "the new york times," "washington post," abc good kwork in this area. the most shocking thing to me is all this stuff had come out last year from page story "new york times," "washington post." in all the debates and all the interviews that hillary clinton has done with the mainstream media, she has not been asked one question by the media on these topics which to me is shocking. i think any other political figure in america with a 4,000 word front page investigative piece in "the new york times" alleging money from the russian government, the transfer of uranium would at least warrant one question from the mainstream media in terms of a political debate and it's never happened. it's really shocking to me. >> there's a lot of things that could be looked at, i guess. so where can you see this movie? there's another movie coming out called "clinton's america" or something. that is in theaters this weekend. we said you are but i don't think so. where can you see the movie rendition of your book? >> well, you can of course buy the b

you take the outliers like "the washington post," abc, plus 12 for clinton, rasmussen yesterday had donaldew points. the averages are all pretty clear. hillary clinton's around 45%. donald trump's around 40%. and donald trump has a bit of momentum going in to the weekend because of that ill-advised meeting a few days ago between loretta lunch, the attorney general, and bill clinton on an airport tarmac. this comes at a time when the justice department's considering the e-mail issue with hillary clinton deciding whether or not to bring charges. the white house was not very happy with that meeting, although they didn't directly criticize it. donald trump on "hannity" last night went off. take a listen. >> when i first heard that yesterday afternoon, i actually thought they were joking. i thought the people that told me were -- i said no way. it's just no way that's going to happen. and it happened. and i am just -- i'm flabbergasted by it. i think it is amazing. i've never seen anything like that before. >> now as an indication of how uncomfortable that moment was and how bad those appearanc

according to a new "washington post"/abc news poll.ey're worried about clinton as president making them hesitant to vote for her. >>> and any excuse to show you some bikini shots this early morning. sorry, guys, but the "sports illustrated" bikini model hannah davis is officially off the market. who is the lucky guy? that gets this lady? derek jeter. yeah. davis tied the knot with the new york yankees legend in a small, private ceremony in california. they have been together now for three years. and those are your headlines. see you back here in a little bit. >> congratulations. we had her on the program. a very nice woman. >> very nice. legendary -- >> on the inside and out. she's beautiful. >> i'm not a yankees fan, but i'll give him credit today. >>> rudy giuliani coming under fire for saying this. >> when you say black lives matter, that's inherently racist. that's anti-american and it's racist. >> america's mayor responded on our show right here on this couch earlier. hear what he had to say next. >>> do you share your netflix pas

leon: the latest abc news/washington post poll in late june found the majority of americans disapprove of how clinton has handled questions about her e-mail. a terror arrest in our backyard. a former national guardsmen behind in bars. plus, high tech hackers targeting your car. a crime that is gaining traction. in theeona new clue mysterious crash of egyptair flight 804. the voice recorder recorders recorded smoke in the cockpit when the airplane went down. 66 people were killed. investigators are trying to pinpoint whether terrorism or a technical issue was the cause. developing now, a possible terror attack stopped in virginia. in virginia national guardsmen is behind bars after making contact with isis. the man from sterling is accused of soliciting help from terror groups. that he wantedid to carry out a "ft. hood" type .f attack the fbi caught him during a sting operation of the weekend. wild weather impacting places across the country and still no signs of a missing police officer the university of dallas. his vehicle was found in floodwaters earlier this morning. teams found his

of trump change on favorability, on qualified to be president. 51% of college whites in the abc washington post poll believe he's biesd against women and minorities. is it more important for him to narrows the race by driving up hillary clinton's negatives or is it going to be a lost opportunity if he can't change the perceptions about him? >> i think perceptions about him. i think the horse race numbers will change a little bit after the week and change again after the democratic national convention and settle in as we get closer to labor day. if his numbers are in the 30s, he's not going to win. right. you can't run -- he has to win florida, north carolina, virginia, ohio and looking at a combination of other difficult states. i don't think it happens regardless of how bad her numbers are. they're better than his. i think those underlying numbers have to change a bit. >> yeah, horse race numbers are misleading and premature. you only get a couple of big paint brush in a campaign to define who you have. he has to move his numbers. the voters that control the election, the 6 to 7% -- trump, for

feel about the issues right now.he host: here is the polar guests mention the story from the washington post an abc newsou about the fbi decision toat exonerate hillary clinton. most disproving of that and you see that on the post website. stephen shepherd, talking about polling. let's go to virginia in the independent line. bob, good morning. caller: good morning. my question has to do with the quality of a--ll of the polls themselves with only people being polled who may be misinformed or confused or decided or ignorant. we have seen popular tv shows where people don't even know who the president is or who is on the supreme court's or anything of that nature that makes me wonder whether randomized questions of a thousand people are really getting the true feelings of true votersnd part and the second part of the question is when youdo do put out a full, do you think it influences the undecided and ignorant to vote in a way that they wouldn't not otherwise what about? thanks. guest: altered the second part of that first.t, there is no doubt--en there are a lot of questions that have been asked abo

in an abc news/"washington post" poll she's up four. and when you add the third party candidates the margins between clinton and trump remain close to the same but nearly 20% of voters are considering a third party candidate in two of those polls. with his favorability at 27% donald trump remains the most unpopular presumptive presidential nominee in the history of the nbc/"wall street journal" poll. clinton fares only slightly better across those polls, democratic pollster fred yang of heart research said quote let me summarize the poll into four little words, they hate them both. donald trump and his running mate indiana governor mike pence sat down for their first joint interview in which trump seemed to move away interest barring people of muslim faith from entering the united states when lesley stahl asked pence about his previous criticism of that proposal. >> in december you tweeted and i quote you, calls to ban muslims from entering the u.s. are offensive and unconstitutional. >> we're going to do territories -- >> so you change

abc and "the washington post" have her leading by 12. trump tweeted the abc poll.e said he didn't like the results, he said it's dirty, dishonest, a disgrace. think about it, if he loses this election, he'll never concede, right? you know how the losing candidate is supposed to pick up the phone and call the winner? i don't see that happening. so donald trump was in scotland over the weekend to take part in a ribbon-cutting ceremony at his golf resort. watch and pay special attention to what he does at the end of this clip. >> one, two, three. thank you, everybody. thank you. there, there's a pair of scissors, go play with those. run around. [ laughter ] make sure nobody tries to cut my hair with them. [ cheers and applause ] it was interesting, in the middle of the campaign he chose to go to scotland to promote one of his business ventures. which sounds absolutely crazy. but i guess he felt it was necessary. you know, over the course of this campaign trump hotels have experienced a huge decline in bookings. a lot of people don't want to stay at these hotels becaus

this is a brand new abc news/"washington post" poll. hillary clinton 47%, donald trump, 43%.the margin of error, statistically tied, but what it shows more than anything, american voters are unhappy with their choice here. a whopping 58% say that they are unsatisfied with the choice of hillary clinton or donald trump, and even among those that are supporting one candidate or the other tell us that they are supporting trump primarily because they are opposed to hillary clinton. or they're supporting hillary clinton primarily because they are opposed to donald trump. american voters are clearly not satisfied with their choices going into the election. >> that is quite different, but this has been a different kind of a campaign season this time around. now, yesterday, trump made it official that mike pence is his vp. they seem to be polar opposites. >> reporter: this, carolyn, you are right. this is the ultimate political odd couple in terms of temperament, in terms of style. even on some of the big issues, they have not seen eye to eye. one thing that donald trump did, by picki

general election nominee from either party, and the key one is that 60% of americans in the abc/"washington postbe president. if they can't deal with that this week, whatever else they do, they're going to be facing an uphill climb the rest way. >> mark reston, our cnn politics executive editor, there will be some other surprises here. donald trump is a showman. he wants to make this republican convention a bit different. >> he is a showman, and he has done very well over as a reality television star. i think, though, what he said he was going to do and what he's going to deliver are two different things. the guest that we anticipated he would have here are probably not going to be here from what we can tell from what they have sent us out. tonight we'll see scott baio, who was a star back in the '70s and the '80s. he's considered a big star. an lpga golfer who in her own right is a great athlete, but again, not known by a lot of people. so not really the a-list a-list that we thought he would bring. >> what were you vaying? >> i think he was supporting actor in the '70s and '80s. >> but iconic

washington. and our brand-new abc news/"washington post" poll shows they will be speaking to a deeply divided country pretty disgusted with both candidates. a remarkable 58% of registered voters say they are dissatisfied with the choice before them. the top line, hillary clinton draws 47%, donald trump at 43%. that's a sharp drop for clinton from her 12-point lead in june. the poll makes clear both candidates enter the convention with huge challenges. 64% have an unfavorable view of donald trump. hillary clinton at 54% and coming off the fbi director's blistering criticism of her as extremely careless, hillary clinton is too willing to bend the rules. donald trump's big weakness, 60% call him unqualified. majorities of republicans and democrats now say they're voting again the other side rather than for their own candidate. some pretty sobering numbers there. let's bring in jon karl who will be with us all week. we have never seen voters so unhappy with choices heading into the conventions. >> reporter: that's for sure. look at the municipals you cried the fact that 60% of voters do not think that do

we want to put up new poll, an abc "washington post" poll which shows that on the eve of the conventioninton leads trump 47 to 43. that's down from a 12-point lead just a month ago. clinton down, trump up a bit. and one wonders at least in clinton's falling numbers whether the fbi non-indictment but political scolding from fbi director james comey had a role in that. mike pence, what do you think of the pick? >> reassuring pick as far as the remnant of the republican party which is not rallied to trump's side. you think about trump's position, trying to add up the numbers for a general election. mitt romney got 93% of the republican vote and won the independents and still lost. sort of the first order of business for donald trump will be to fill out the republican support so he has at least that. it would be great for him if he could get more. it's a real task. he doesn't have that. it's reflected by who's here and who's not here in this convention hall. he picks somebody who is in the republican mainstream. it was a safe, if unexciting choice. >> we asked for you questions for the pane

you look at a recent bole this is abc 2 "washington post" asking if the country is mo offing in the right direction. 68 percent saying it is not moving in the right direction. she is got to be careful here. >> it really is a tough landscape in that way for hillary clinton. a lot of people feel like their wages are cut and they dmooe what it will look like for their kids and grand kids. what president obama said i think says it all and lays out the case. he said it's not yes, he can. it's yes, we can. yes, we are all in this together and that's the way we move forward. we are not looking for a ruler the way donald trump says he and he alone can nicks this country. it is what we do together as a country. i think the president did a great job of reminding us that message of hope the vision for optimism in the future. he did the best job he could and an effective one of passing on the legacy to hillary clinton. >> president obama's favor ability ratings are about 50 percent. when you look at hillary clinton's numbers, she does not have high favorable ratings at all, and neither does donald tr

the latest abc news "washington post" poll brought up interesting responses. 72% of those polled believellary clinton is too willing to ben the rules and 56% believe that donald trump is bias against women and minorities. when it comes to middle class and race relation, clinton tops trump in every category and they are tied when it comes to the economy. when asked who is more honest, they are tied. but with a margin they believe that hillary clinton has a better personality and temperament to serve effectively. it's still an uphill battle, 64% of those asked do not like donald trump and 54% do not like hillary clinton, we'll see how the numbers change as the race towards the general election kicks into high gear. and debates that should be exciting as well. >>> a man is in the hospital when a police officer shot him while he was lying on the street with his hands up. it was all captured on cell phone video. the man on the left there is behavioral therapist, charles kensy, he was trying to convince a man with autism to come back into the assisted living facility. neither kensy or his pati

"abc news" "washington post" poll was released and took a look at questions. let's look at results. 56% disapprove of the fbi decision not to charge clinton while 35% approve. and here's a thing i thought was interesting take away. even with that high disapproval for the fbi decision 58% of those polled said it will make no difference on whether or not they will support her. and so i think -- >> it's a very different election this time around so people are looking at it as lesser of two evils of who they vote for and at the same time she should be investigated in their opinions. >> that's how a lot of people are describing this race. it's an interesting time when you see so many people saying they do not agree with the decision from the fbi and there's a lot of talk finally about an event that will be held tomorrow in new hampshire and with bernie sanders will thereby and you may not realize this sanders is technically in the race for the democratic nomination. he's still in the race and expected to endorse hillary clinton tomorrow. >> yeah an a lot of specula
