The 2008 Wyoming Democratic presidential caucuses were a series of events designed to determine the
superdelegates
, so the whole delegation was composed of 18 delegates.
Process
The Wyoming caucus were open to all eligible voters who were registered as Democrats by February 22, 2008. A 15 percent threshold was required in order to receive delegates at any caucus site.[1] Rather than the traditional caucus format, most sites used secret ballots which were then counted and delegates apportioned, without re-caucusing of nonviable groups.[2]
