Got a minute? Romney joins Kasich to block Trump ... Todd Palin injured ... police look into charging Trump ... and everything else you need to know today from the campaign trail. By Tom McCarthy

1. Trump may face charges

A county sheriff’s office in North Carolina where a protester was sucker-punched at a Donald Trump rally last week said it was considering filing a charge against Trump for inciting a riot.

2. Todd Palin hospitalized

The husband of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin was admitted to an intensive care unit after a “little wreck on a snow machine”, she told a crowd at a Trump rally in Florida.

She was talking about protesters.

3. Romney appears for Kasich

Five large states host primaries Tuesday, including Ohio, where the latest polls show governor John Kasich pulling ahead of Trump in the presidential race.

Summary

Most models of the Republican contest give Trump fantastic odds of capturing the nomination if he wins both Ohio and Florida, which also votes tomorrow.

Summary

The 2012 Republican nominee campaigned Monday in Ohio for Kasich. “This is the guy that Ohio needs to vote for,” Mitt Romney said. “America’s counting on you.”

4. Sanders predicts Ohio win

Pollsters have Bernie Sanders trailing Hillary Clinton in Ohio by double digits – but look what happened last week in Michigan. “I think we’re going to win Ohio tomorrow,” Sanders told a crowd.

5. Clinton claims nomination within reach

The Clinton camp argued that strong wins would put the nomination out of Sanders’ reach, given her lead among superdelegates. There are 792 Democratic delegates in play on Tuesday.
