Democratic results
According to information posted by the Kansas Democratic Party, Bernie Sanders received a total of 26,450 votes statewide, while Hillary Clinton received 12,593 votes statewide.
Scott Mackey said that Bernie Sanders won the Democratic caucuses in the 6th District and in the Wyandotte County portion of the 5th District.
In the 4th District, Clinton received 12 delegates and Sanders, 7. The 4th District had more delegates than the other two districts.
The total for Wyandotte County was 17 delegates for Clinton and 19 for Sanders.
Mackey said a record number of people turned out in the Democratic caucuses statewide, even more than 2008, and there also was a high turnout in Wyandotte County.
He said nine of 12 delegates in the 6th District went to Sanders, while three of the five delegates in the 5th District portion in Wyandotte County went to Sanders.
Mackey said in the 5th District caucus, which he attended, there were a little more than 400 people participating.
“Bernie narrowly won, but it was great to see so much enthusiasm,” Mackey said about the 5th District.
He said he noticed many of Sanders’ supporters were young, while it appeared that there were only a handful of people under 35 on the Clinton side in the 5th District. He said he hoped that a Young Democrats group would start again in Wyandotte County.
Mackey said he thinks the large Democratic turnout here was due to people being so upset at Republican presidential candidates and their policies, and also the policies of Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback and Secretary of State Kris Kobach.
