Wyoming: target for Sanders to win nomination is 11-3 split in delegates

It originally was 9-5, but he failed to hit a number of targets earlier in the campaign so now he needs to gain a +8 split (11-3) in order to stay on pace to take the lead in pledged delegates.

He missed his revised target by 2 in WI earlier this week, despite the impressive showing there (he kicked her ass).

he needs to win the remaining states overall in order to be on pace to win the nomination.

Wyoming is supposed to be an easy win for him, as it's a caucus state.

I am very confident she will return the favor Tuesday after next, except at 3X the scale.
