Morning Brief: March 19 2016

New York's primary is today and voters across the state will cast their vote for who they think should be the next president of the United States. Democrats might be a little bit more confused when they walk into the voting booths. That's because they'll have the option to pick their preferred candidate (either Clinton or Sanders) as well as delegates to send to the parties convention. On the Republican side voters can pick between Trump, Kasich, Cruz and Carson (despite dropping out last month he's on the ballot). Some polling places will be opened at 6:00 am.
