Trump Wins Florida, Rubio Drops Out, Hillary Wins Florida- Ohio and North Carolina

Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump and John Kasich scored major victories Tuesday that significantly reshaped the presidential race while a big loss in Florida prompted Marco Rubio to drop his White House bid. Clinton took big strides toward the Democratic nomination by winning Florida and North Carolina. And in a crucial victory, she stopped Bernie Sanders in his tracks in the industrial Midwest by taking Ohio. The Republican Party, meanwhile, veered closer to a historic contested convention after Kasich, the Ohio governor, held his own state and deprived Trump of its 66 delegates. That makes it more difficult for the billionaire to reach the 1,237 delegates he needs to capture the GOP prize. Trump did, however, prevail in the biggest contest of the night, taking all off Florida's 99 delegates. That resounding win helped force Rubio out of the race after failing to win his own state and to unite the Republican establishment against Trump. The real estate tycoon also won primaries in Illinois and North Carolina. Marco Rubio is dropping out of the presidential race after losing the Florida primary to Donald Trump and failing to unite the Republican establishment against the billionaire front-runner. "We live in a republic and our voters make these decisions," Rubio said in Miami Tuesday night as his supporters booed Trump's victory. His speech was a thinly veiled rebuke of Trump's campaign tactics, as he warned that it would have been easier for him to exploit the anger and anxiety driving the race. He warned that the politics of division were going to leave America a "fractured nation."
