Wyoming Caucus Live Results: Up-To-Date Totals For Saturday’s Critical Vote As Bernie Sanders Looks To Continue Momentum


Those who want to follow live results of the Wyoming caucus will have plenty of chances to follow all the up-to-date vote totals of Saturday’s contest, where Bernie Sanders is looking to extend his winning streak over Hillary Clinton and continue momentum toward New York.

Saturday’s caucus has just 14 delegates up for grabs between Clinton and Sanders, but it could still be a critical contest and a test of Sanders’ ability to maintain the winning streak he has now stretched over the past several weeks. The state is the last contest before New York’s April 19 primary, which could make or break Sanders’ campaign, so anything less than a strong win in Wyoming could be seen as a setback for Sanders.

The state’s caucuses will start at 11 a.m. local time (1 p.m. ET), with results expected to start coming in later in the afternoon.

Bernie Sanders is coming off a come-from-behind win in Wisconsin this week, where he turned a double-digit deficit into what ended up being a 13-point win. While that still puts him far off Hillary Clinton’s delegate lead, he has been stressing the importance of momentum going into some much bigger contests where Clinton has a decided demographic advantage.

“Let me say a word, maybe two, about what momentum is all about,” Sanders said during a visit to Laramie, Wyoming, via The New Yorker. “What momentum is about is my belief that, if we wake up the American people, there is nothing that we cannot accomplish.”

Those who follow live results of the Wyoming caucus are likely to see Bernie Sanders gaining more momentum. The state hits every one of his sweet spots — it is smaller, with a largely white population, and holding a closed caucus. He has dominated other states meeting those demographic points, and pundits expect Sanders to once again dominate on Saturday.

“We are similar to other states that Sen. Sanders has done well in. He’s performed very well in states with predominately white communities,” Wyoming Democratic Party executive director Aimee Van Cleave told Politico. “And he does perform well in caucus states. So that pretty much describes Wyoming.”

And Sanders may have a chance at a shutout in Wyoming. If he were to top 85 percent of the vote, it would leave Clinton non-viable and give him all of the state’s 14 delegates.

As Politico went on to note, the small contest is suddenly taking on a much larger significance as Bernie Sanders aims for more upsets of Hillary Clinton.

“A win in Wyoming wouldn’t put much of a dent in Clinton’s roughly 250-delegate lead over Sanders — even a runaway victory there wouldn’t net him a huge number of delegates,” Politico noted. “But the state is suddenly taking on exaggerated importance — at least for Sanders — since it advances the momentum argument that’s now central to his stump speech. As the two Democrats enter the smash-mouth phase of the primary, marked by ever-sharper attacks on each other, the least populous state in the nation is offering a chance for Sanders to strut into Clinton’s home state with confidence, knowing that an upset victory in New York could have the effect of resetting the primary.”
