People will pay more attention to Ohio than Wyoming, because more people live in Ohio than in Wyoming.

Here are CNN's delegate counts for Ohio:
Clinton -- 71
Obama -- 59

And for Wyoming:
Clinton -- 4
Obama -- 7

Ohio has more people, and thus more delegates.

When you continue this process by adding up delegates from all the states, Obama has the lead right now. So if you were deciding who is more popular among Democrats who have voted, as you're suggesting the superdelegates might do, you'd probably go with Obama.
