Donald Trump warns of riots if denied Republican presidential nomination

Businessman Donald Trump was hoping to give the knockout blow to Ohio Gov. John Kasich and Florida Sen.

Garcia said she was not surprised by the results of tonight's Florida primary, because Rubio "seemed unable to carry his home state", she said.

The Ohio primary was his first victory of the 2016 Republican race for presidential candidacy.

Rubio was the only candidate on the either side to have dropped out of the race after his dismal performance. Trump also won in North Carolina and in IL.

Tuesday's votes in five states had been viewed as a pivotal moment in the Republican campaign. Rubio had tried to stay in the race by getting into a fierce debate with Trump.

Ohio Governor John Kasich's victory in his home state left him as the last establishment Republican candidate standing after Mr. Rubio, a USA senator, pulled out of the race after losing in his home state of Florida.

Mr. Cruz praised Marco Rubio, his "friend and colleague", who ran a "strong, positive and optimistic campaign".

Obama to announce Supreme Court nominee on Wednesday
But Obama may reason that the choice of an older nominee might also entice Senate Republicans into considering Obama's selection. Obama told CNN in an interview that aired this week that he was seeking a "consensus candidate" for the high court.

But Ohio Governor, Kasich, who scored his first win and has 138 delegates in his account, said he would go all the way to the Cleveland convention to fight for his nomination.

Kasich vowed never to take the "low road" towards the nomination.

Trump now has 621 delegates.

As she had after other primary wins, Clinton was thinking on Tuesday about a possible match-up in the November 8 presidential election with Trump.

While the New Yorker had amassed the most delegates going into Tuesday, he is winning 46% of those awarded so far. A Trump sweep could have given him an insurmountable lead in the delegate count.

"Name the country, anybody we do business with beats us".

Both Trump and Sanders had been expected to win over some voters - especially in Midwestern states - due to their positions on worldwide trade. To win by that kind of a number is incredible. Despite his toughest night of the campaign, Sanders said from Arizona his campaign will continue.

"He's tough, he's smart and he's got a great future".

His next task, say political analysts, will be to harness that momentum into more wins in order to seriously hobble Donald Trump's front-runner status and make himself the best establishment alternative to Trump or Sen. Votes were also being counted in Missouri, though races in both parties there were too close to call.

Kasich, who has 142 delegates, needs an additional 1,095.

"We brought millions of people in, and they're voting in the primaries".
