After being crowned the winner of the Wisconsin Democratic primary, Bernie Sanders told a crowd in Wyoming that real change takes place when people "think big" and say the "status quo isn't working and we can do better."

Sanders pointed out that he has won seven of the last eight primaries and caucuses, and announced his supporters have "decided we do not represent the billionaire class, we do not represent Wall Street or the pharmaceutical companies or the fossil fuel industry." Young people are voting in droves, he said, "standing up and saying, 'we want to help determine the future.'"
