2008 Nissan Versa Engine hood won't close tightly.

I just popped the hood and everything worked fine. When I tried to close it, the release latch connected, but the hood wouldn't close entirely. I flipped the hood release inside the car again and it had no tension on it. Nothing is bent and there is nothing in the way keeping it from closing. I pushed on the hood connection apparatus with a screw driver and it depressed/rotated as it should when the hood connecting ring hits it. But it won't operate with just me pushing on the hood.
