New York Governor Kathy Hochl says that she will deploy 750 members of the National Guard and 250 state troopers and transit officers to help the New York Police Department check bags at the subway entrances to better protect those in the subway system.

The AP's Julie Walker with a deep dive on this. It may not have been what Nikki Haley supporters were hoping to hear as she took the stage in her home state. The time has now come to suspend my campaign. Haley losing big on Super Tuesday only winning Vermont. Telling supporters she wanted to give Americans a chance to have their voices heard and she did that. I have no regrets. One announcement that did not come in endorsement of Donald Trump. It is now up to Donald Trump to earn the votes of those in our party and beyond it. Who did not support him and I hope he does that. Haley did congratulate Trump on becoming the presumptive Republican nominee and said the country is too precious to let differences divide us. I'm Julie Walker.
