The final Wisconsin numbers are in. Bernie failed.
His target was 50; he got 48. Hillary's target was 36; she got 38.
Bernie needed to net 14 delegates on the night; he netted 10. Those extra 4 delegates will carry forward into New York (not Wyoming, because he would need 15 of Wyoming's 14 delegates). So his effective target in New York goes from 128 to 130 out of 247. From 51.8% to 52.6%.
If he wins all of Wyoming's 14 delegates, his effective target in New York will be 127, or 51.4%.
So yeah. Let's work our asses off for New York.
ETA: Hillary now needs 43.7% of all remaining pledged delegates.
