The 2016 Kansas Democratic caucuses took place on March 5 in the U.S. state of Kansas as one of the Democratic Party's primaries ahead of the 2016 presidential election.

On the same day, Democratic primaries were held in Louisiana and in Nebraska, while the Republican Party held primaries in four states including their own Kansas caucuses.

Analysis

As he did throughout most other states that held caucuses, as well as most farm belt and Great Plains states, Bernie Sanders defeated Hillary Clinton by a two-to-one margin in Kansas, one of the reddest states in the nation. Sanders ran up big margins in urban areas including Kansas City, Lawrence, Topeka, and Wichita, but also won in very rural areas. He won all four congressional districts in the state, never dipping below 60% of the vote. His worst showing was in Kansas's Third Congressional District which borders Missouri, where he received 62% of the vote.

Because Kansas is a VERY red state, most people who are willing to work and declare their party affiliation as democratic, would also consider themselves progressive. Bernie Sanders, with his grassroots campaign, and room for everyone at the table, carried the progressive vote. Many people working for Bernie Sanders got involved, beyond voting, for the first time. The feeling of being welcome at the campaign offices was felt by all.
