Former Gov. Kathleen Sebelius and other well-known Kansas Democrats are working to see that Hillary Clinton wins the state’s presidential caucuses in what they acknowledge is a tough race against Bernie Sanders.

...

Leading Democrats weren’t certain how Saturday’s caucuses would go. Among those staying neutral is Tom Witt, executive director of the gay-rights group Equality Kansas and a leading progressive activist.

“My sense is that it’s close,” he said last week. “I don’t think it will be a blowout on either side.”

it is a neighbor to Kansas. It has very little minority population. It is a caucus where turnout will be low and so activists will prevail. I say 54-46 Bernie.
