Bernie Sanders Wins Wyoming Democratic Caucuses
NY Times ^ | Apr. 9, 2016 | YAMICHE ALCINDOR and AMY CHOZICK

Continuing a string of victories across the West, Senator Bernie Sanders won the Wyoming Democratic caucuses Saturday, chipping away at Hillary Clinton’s delegate lead before a major primary in New York next week.

With 96 percent of precincts reporting, The Associated Press declared Mr. Sanders the winner with 56 percent of the vote.

With just 14 delegates up for grab in Wyoming, the victory trims only a little from Hillary Clinton’s 219-delegate lead. But coming after Mr. Sanders’s recent big victories in Washington State, Alaska, Idaho, Utah, Hawaii and Wisconsin, it was more evidence of Mrs. Clinton’s weaknesses among white and liberal voters as the race moves to major primaries in New York and elsewhere in the Northeast.

I don't think Sanders can overcome Hillary's lead overall. This is just to give the impression that there is something going on in the Dem primaries and keep news articles coming, so people don't only hear about Republicans.

Unless the Wicked Witch has some water thrown on her or she is indicted, she will be the nominee. However, Angry Santa will have lots of influence due to his strong showing. Something like VP or Treasury Secretary will have to be offered to him. If not, his supporters will boycott the election or vote for the Republican nominee out of spite.

The Dem leadership will find a way to ensure Hilary is the nominee somehow.

I don’t think NY is a given for Hillary. Many people have had enough.

The Democrat leaders are looking at Hillary and what they see is that she is consistently losing Democrat races to an Independent.

If she does that, the Bernie supporters will burn the Democratic Convention down to the ground. If it happened after the convention, they still would vote for the Republican nominee just to defeat she who murdered their Angry Santa.

If they can just carry her across the finish line, a vast sea of blue awaits Hillary Clinton in the general election.
