Hillary Reeling As Sanders Makes It Seven In A Row - Wins Wyoming Caucus

Bernie Sanders wins Wyoming Democratic caucus, defeating Hillary Clinton, according to AP, extending his win-streak to seven states in a row. This brings the delegate count to Hillary 1292 vs Bernie's 1044 excluding super-delegates, which as we noted here, are far from a "lock" for Clinton if the Bernie Bus continues to show this kind of momentum.

Seven In A Row for Bernie - Idaho, Utah, Alaska, Hawaii, Washington, Wisconsin, and now Wyoming.

 

While Wyoming won’t significantly change delegate math for either campaign, as it is one of smallest contests and awards 14 pledged delegates and 4 superdelegates, the trend is very much Bernie's friend right now.

And, as we concluded previously, if Sanders continues to win primaries, rack up delegates, raise tens of millions of dollars a month in campaign contributions, draw massive crowds to his rallies, and score double-digit leads against Clinton in demographics the party needs to win the general election - they will have to ask themselves some hard questions if the final count is close.

Who will lead the Democratic Party in the general election is a political question, not a mathematical one. If Sanders’s momentum continues to grow, the superdelegates would ignore that fact at their peril.
