It was a hard-fought battle for Hillary Clinton in Massachusetts, but the Democratic frontrunner eeked out a win over challenger Bernie Sanders, 50 percent to 49, as Republican Donald Trump cruised to victory, with 49 percent of the vote on the Republican side.
With 91 Democratic delegates at stake in Massachusetts, Clinton and Sanders are on track to split the spoils fairly evenly. Clinton will pick up at least 45; Sanders will gain 43. There are still about 3 percent of precincts yet to report. Clinton won in larger Massachusetts cities and towns, while Sanders fared better in rural areas in central and Western Massachusetts.
MIAMI (AP) — Democrat Hillary Clinton and Republican Donald Trump, emboldened by commanding victories Tuesday across large swaths of the country, are beginning to focus on each other in the race for the White House.
Clinton previewed a "love and kindness" message while Trump traded his typical rollicking rallies for a sober media conference where he pressed his case that Clinton is a proven failure as a longtime politician.
