BNR - 'Sanders Wins Wisconsin Overwhelmingly' & 'Jane And Bernie Rally In Wyoming'

Wisconsin Democratic voters showed the rest of the country that the state is indeed "Feelin' the Bern."

Fox News and NBC News called the Democratic primary race for Vermont senator Bernie Sanders at around 8:20 p.m. That makes Wisconsin the sixth state Sanders has won out of the last seven.

As of midnight, with 95 percent of the votes tallied, the Associated Press reported Sanders led with 56 percent of the vote, compared to 43 percent for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Of the 86 pledged delegates up for grabs, Sanders claimed 45 delegates to Clinton's 31.

Speaking from a rally in Laramie, Wyo., Sanders thanked Wisconsin voters "for their strong support."

Sanders held events in the state nearly every day in the week leading up to Tuesday's primary and purchased 5,774 ad spots. Clinton made appearances on three days and bought 3,278 ads. Her husband, former President Bill Clinton, also stumped for her at Lawrence University in Appleton.

In a tweet, Clinton congratulated Sanders on his victory in Wisconsin and thanked her supporters for their efforts.
