Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumWho actually won Wyoming?
Sanders wins the vote by 55.7% to Hillary's 44.3%.
The pledged delegates are split 7-7.
Hillary has all 4 super delegates from Wyoming.
Now the delegate count for Wyoming is Hillary 11, Sanders still 7.
So once again I ask, who actually won Wyoming? Just some food for thought.
Happy Sunday morning to all.

(25,111 posts)Since pledged delegate count is what propels a candidate to the nomination, I'll say again, HRC was the big winner.

If BS thinks HRC is "nervous", that's OK too b/c she is great at SURPRISINGLY coming back!! And everytime is extra FANTASTIC!!!!

This isn't the electoral college.

(20,450 posts)chances. I think that's why Sandernistas are behaving this way. They are ignoring the math because the Corporate Media is implying that he has a chance. He doesn't.
Today in the NYTimes, there was a front page article about how the voters are not being heard in the Trump and Sanders's cases. On the Sanders's side, the argument is that most people don't understand why BS isn't gaining more delegates even though he has won all these states. It's like they really don't understand how "proportionality" works. But what's more frustrating for me is that the Times article didn't even make an attempt to explain why. The writer simply concluded that the "will of the people" is being ignored. Now, that may be the case when it comes to Trump...the Republican Establishment is really stealing his delegates from him. But when it comes to Sanders, this article makes it appear as though the situation is the same: That somehow the Democratic Establishment is not listening to the Sanders people. Really, Hillary and Obama's delegate totals were even CLOSER and I don't remember all the crying, whining and gnashing of teeth.

(7,968 posts)Hillary and her campaign are anti-democratic.
William769
(55,147 posts)We've seen how Sanders campaign has actually tried to change the popular vote.
Talk about anti-democratic!

(297,317 posts)saying they were "undemocratic".. so, don't be a hypocrite.

(20,450 posts)ideologues participate in them. When people have to work, have children, etc. they don't appreciate.
Plus, he's winning when the population of a state isn't diverse. I'm sorry, but just white people won't win a Democratic Party primary. As Bernie and his fanatics will soon come to realize, NO Democrat can win a primary without the black and Hispanic vote...I don't care how "revolutionary" he/she is.
Besides, we already had a revolutionary campaign...and the candidate's name was Barack Hussein Obama, Jr. He was truly revolutionary...bringing all ages, all races, both genders, even Independents and Republicans together. Sanders and his fanatics have alienated blacks, Hispanics, and women. That is the base of the Democratic Party.

(67,782 posts)...but here are where we are today:
Needed to win the nomination:
Clinton 599, Sanders 1256
William769
(55,147 posts)By my count it's this.
Hillary 593, Sanders 1270.
Either way, point well taken.
George II
(67,782 posts)It has the Wyoming delegate count, but it's now different than it was a day ago. These seem to change just about every day.

(9,494 posts)I can't seem to find it but I'll keep looking.

(24,396 posts)saw this coming. I figured Sanders would easily net 6-8 delegates out of WY.
The fact that Hill actually won 11-7 is like a gift with a big ol' ribbon wrapped around it.
Let the Slanders fans say what they want. The math is deaf to their spin.
