Wyoming Caucuses: Sanders Hopes to Cut Clinton's Delegate Lead

Clinton and Sanders need 2,383 delegates to win the Democratic nomination

Democratic rivals Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are battling for 14 pledged delgates in Wyoming at the state's county caucuses Saturday, NBC News reported.

The Vermont senator is fresh off a string of recent wins and looking to continue chipping away at Clinton's sizeable lead in the number of delegates needed to secure the party's nomination.

Sanders performs well in states that hold caucuses rather than primaries, in part because the former typically highlights a higher level of engagement by progressive activists. If Clinton falls short in Wyoming, she will have lost seven of the last eight nominating contests.

Both candidates are also now fully engaged in barnstorming New York, where a huge pool of 247 pledged delegates are up for grabs in the state's primary on April 19.
