| The approach of the top local tabloids to the day is about what you’d expect. The New York Post goes with a fake story about fears in the Clinton camp of a Sanders upset, and the Daily News slugs Donald Trump in the gut one last time on the way out the door, with a kick in the pants for good measure for Rex Ryan, the National Football League coach who introduced Trump last night in Buffalo. | |
| That Bernie Sanders peeking out from behind the Empire State Building on the cover of the Post is pretty funny, though. | |

| Hello, and welcome to our live-wire coverage of the 2016 race for the White House. | Hello, and welcome to our live-wire coverage of the 2016 race for the White House. |
| It’s primary day in New York, where voters are enjoying a rare sense of influence in a pair of close national races. On the Democratic side, Hillary Clinton hopes that polling averages showing her in the lead by double digits tell a truth that the crowds of thousands who have gravitated to her rival, Bernie Sanders, do not. They’re in a fight for 247 Democratic delegates, to be awarded proportionally. | |
| On the Republican side, Donald Trump appears poised to win by as much as 30 points, if the polls are to be believed, in what may be his most authoritative victory of the cycle so far. If he could capture more than 50% of the vote statewide and in each of New York’s 27 congressional districts, he would sweep the state’s 95 Republican delegates and gain a crucial boost in his determined climb toward 1,237. | On the Republican side, Donald Trump appears poised to win by as much as 30 points, if the polls are to be believed, in what may be his most authoritative victory of the cycle so far.
