Clinton Clinches Presumptive Democratic Nomination

CNN

Hillary Clinton has amassed enough delegate votes to secure the Democratic nomination for president, making her the party's presumptive nominee. Clinton reached the magic number of 2,383 delegates on Monday according to the AP, ahead of Tuesday's primaries in California, New Jersey, New Mexico, Montana, South Dakota and North Dakota. Clinton is the first woman in the United States to lead the presidential ticket of a major political party.

Although recent polls showed a close race in California, Clinton won the state, beating Bernie Sanders, by a more than 10-point margin. 

Will the Democratic party unite under a Clinton campaign? What can we expect in the coming months when Clinton faces presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump in the general election? JohnFritze, National Reporter for the Baltimore Sun, joins Tom in-studio for analysis.
