25 March 2000: Unpledged delegate preference update: Gore 1, Bradley
1. Unpledged delegates appear in the "Soft Unpledged" field.
Here's how we compute the delegate count:
- A candidate must receive 15% or more of the total popular vote to qualify for delegates. Discard those votes cast for candidates who do not qualify.
- Allocate Congressional District delegates from the qualified vote statewide (Wyoming has one Congressional District). Allocate Pledged PLEO and At-Large delegates using the statewide qualified vote. Bill Bradley, having withdrawn from the campaign, is not entitled to receive At-Large and PLEO delegates.
- In each jurisdiction:
- Total qualified vote = total votes cast for the qualifying candidates in the jurisdiction.
- Allocation = (delegates for the jurisdiction) × (candidate's popular vote) ÷ (total qualified vote).
- Assign each candidate the WHOLE NUMBER of delegates.
- If delegates remain, allocate each of the remaining delegates to those candidates with the LARGEST REMAINDERS.

Saturday 25 March 2000: Democratic Party Caucuses (also known as
"County Conventions") meet in each county. Each County Caucus chooses
delegates to the Wyoming State Democratic Convention based on
presidential preference.
- "The County Caucus (also, and rather confusingly, referred to
in Wyoming Democratic Party documents, as a "County Convention": since
there does not appear to be a lower first tier below the county level
choosing delegates to a higher tier Convention, the term "Caucus" would
be the more correct one) chooses the county's delegates to the Wyoming
State Convention. Such delegates to the State Convention are allocated
to presidential contenders in proportion to the percentage of the
support each candidate received at the County Caucus (or Convention)- a
mandatory 15 percent threshold being required for such
allocation."
Saturday 20 May 2000: The Wyoming State Democratic Convention
convenes. The State Convention chooses the Wyoming's 13 Pledged
delegates to the Democratic National Convention.
- "The Wyoming State Convention chooses the 8 congressional district, 3 at-large and 2 Pledged PLEO delegates to the Democratic National Convention. Such Pledged National Convention delegates are to be allocated to presidential contenders in proportion to the percentage of the support each candidate received at the State Convention- a mandatory 15 percent threshold being required for such allocation."
The remainder of Wyoming's 18 National Convention delegates consist
of 4 Unpledged PLEOs and 1 Unpledged "add-on"; these 5 delegates will go to the Democratic National Convention officially "Unpledged".
The breakdown of unpledged delegates is:
- 4 Democratic National Committee members
- 1 add-on
