Trump sweeps 5 Northeast states as Clinton, Sanders battle

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Donald Trump swept all five Republican primaries Tuesday, a commanding showing across the Northeast that kept the Republican front-runner on his narrow path to the GOP nomination. His rout was a blow to rivals who are running out of ways to stop the brash billionaire.
Hillary Clinton was dominant in Democratic contests in Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania. She and rival Bernie Sanders were locked in a close race in Connecticut, while the Vermont senator had an edge in Rhode Island, according to early vote counts.
