Another 2016 caucus state bites the dust.  Sanders won the 2016 caucuses 68-32.

This makes Iowa and Nevada the only states conducting anything that resembles an actual caucus, right?

I think Maine for now (bill pending to switch to primary), Wyoming (?) and some of the territories still have old style caucuses.

You could make the arguement that only Iowa is as Nevada has implemented pretty robust early voting for their caucuses next year. Even Iowa is going to allow for "virtual caucusing," whatever that means.


I think Iowa's virtual caucusing could lead to a lot of confusion. IIRC the virtual caucuses will account for at most 10% of the delegates. What if half the participants caucus virtually and support a different candidate than the one who wins the in person caucuses?
