傑布布什宣佈退出美國總統競選
Jeb Bush has abandoned his White House bid after a dismal performance in the South Carolina Republican primary on a night that saw Donald Trump, the New York property magnate, score a big win in the Palmetto State.
傑布布什(Jeb Bush)在南卡羅來納州共和黨初選中表現慘淡，隨後他宣佈退出總統競選。同一晚紐約地產大亨唐納德礠朗普(Donald Trump)在這個別名矮棕櫚州的南部州取得了重大勝利。
Mr Bush ended his campaign after achieving just 7.8 per cent of the vote in a state that the former Florida governor once hoped to win. In a concession speech, he said he was “proud” of his campaign, but that the voters had spoken. “The people of Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina have spoken,” Mr Bush said. “I respect their decision.”
傑布布什曾希望在該州初選中取得勝利，然而這位前佛羅里達州州長僅贏得7.8%的選票，之後他結束了競選。在敗選演講中，傑布布什表示他對自己的競選感到“自豪”，但選民已經做出了選擇。“愛荷華州、新罕布什爾州和南卡羅來納州的人民已經做出了選擇，”他表示，“我尊重他們的決定。”
Mr Trump won a convincing near-33 per cent of the vote in the southern state. Marco Rubio, the Florida senator, emerged in second place with 22.5 per cent, just ahead of Ted Cruz, the conservative senator from Texas, with 22.3 per cent. John Kasich, the Ohio governor, came just behind Mr Bush, with 7.6 per cent. Ben Carson, the retired neurosurgeon, received 7.2 per cent of the vote.
特朗普在這個南部州贏得了令人折服的近33%的選票。佛羅里達州參議員馬可脠比奧(Marco Rubio)以22.5%的選票居於第二，剛好領先於獲得22.3%選票的德克薩斯州保守派參議員特德克魯茲(Ted Cruz)。俄亥俄州州長約翰慍罓奇(John Kasich)正好處於傑布布什之後，獲得了7.6%的選票。退休神經外科醫生本慍森(Ben Carson)獲得了7.2%的選票。
After fierce contests in Iowa and New Hampshire, Hillary Clinton is riding new momentum off the back of the Nevada caucus, a victory that her supporters hope will steady her campaign after a turbulent six weeks.
在愛荷華州和新罕布什爾州的激烈角逐後，希拉裏克林頓(Hillary Clinton)在內華達州黨團會議中再下一城，她的支持者希望在經歷了6周的波折之後，這場勝利能爲她的競選保駕護航。
Mrs Clinton took 52.7 per cent of the Nevada vote against 47.2 per cent for her opponent Bernie Sanders, a better than expected finish for the candidate whose campaign staff had predicted a closer race.
希拉里在這場黨團會議中贏得了52.7%的選票，而她的對手伯尼儠德斯(Bernie Sanders)獲得了47.2%的選票。這個結果好於希拉里的競選工作人員的預期，他們曾預測兩人的選票會更爲接近。
