Very nice job by the Scotties,introducing our penultimate program.

In just a few minutes, we're going to talk about a student science project that's out of this world.

But first up today, some election results.

Former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney won the five presidential primaries held on Tuesday.

He's already the Republican Party's presumptive nominee.

The big news was in Wisconsin, where Republican Governor Scott Walker was facing a recall election.

Recalling a governor had only happened twice before in U.S. history.

Tuesday night was not the third.

Governor Walker beat Milwaukee Democratic Mayor Tom Barrett, the same opponent he beat when Governor Walker was first elected two years ago.

Walker talked about the message that he believes this week's victory sends.

Tonight we tell Wisconsin, we tell our country, and we tell people all across the globe that voters really do want leaders who stand up and make the tough decisions Mayor Barrett promised to work with Governor Walker to try to bring the state together.

He encouraged his own supporters to stay involved in the political process.

Please, please remain engaged, remain involved, because we will continue to fight for justice and fairness in this city and this state.

A lot of political analysts were paying attention to this recall vote because they thought it might foreshadow national elections later this year.

One analyst, Joe Klein of "Time" magazine, offered his opinion about the results of Tuesday's vote in Wisconsin.

I think that what this election says is this, people don't likegimmicks.

Scott Walker was elected two years ago.

He tried to govern according to the way he saw fit.

He did nothing illegal, and the public employees' unions, who are used to getting their way, didn't like it, and they tried to unseat him and it's kind of like when the Republicans tried to impeach Bill Clinton in the late 1990s.

The public saw it as just atremendouswaste of time and money.

My fellow Americans, last night when I spoke with you about the fall of Rome, I knew at that moment that troops of the United States and our allies were crossing the channel in another and greater operation.

It has come to pass with success thus far.

The operation that you just heard President Roosevelt talking about wasn't just a success, it was a major turning point in World War II.

It was called OperationOverlord, but most people know it as D-Day.

June 6th, 1944, the largest seaborne invasion in history, more than 150,000 Allied forces from the U.S., U.K., Canada and others, invaded Nazi-occupied France along the Normandy coast.

You might wonder where the name D-Day came from.

D just stands for Day.

The phrase D-Day stands for the day when a military operation begins.

This week marks the 68th anniversary of that famousinvasion.
