(13,218 posts)That 25% of the Republicans will vote for Hillary. Of course that was an older poll. I wonder what they're saying now? This may just make what the bernie bros do irrelevant.

Not the pundits that wrote him off
early in his campaign.
Remember when the very serious people
said Sanders wouldn't break 30% in "the polls"?
Eff those clowns.
They are trying to create a narrative.
They are manufacturing a false reality.
No critical thinker should buy the
crap they are selling.

(13,218 posts)Half the Republicans, all the Democrats (excluding the BSers who support Trump - they must be very proud). All the rest of what you say is codswallop.

(13,218 posts)OK, I couldn't find the one I was talking about, but this should do nicely. Let me know if that's not the case.

The indication is that most of the BSers are making adult decisions.

(980 posts)I did see: " In one poll, for instance, 33 percent of Sanders voters say they won't vote for Clinton"
That would be 67% of Sanders supporters that would vote for Hillary.

(13,218 posts)I'll continue to look around, and let you know if I find the one I was talking about.
rock
(13,218 posts)Find "80%". Although this is still not the original poll I was talking about. Incidentally, I do find 80% (or higher) quite a reasonable figure.

(980 posts)This is the last national poll that I know of: Poll: 33% of Sanders Supporters Wouldn't Vote for Clinton

"A new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll indicates one third of Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders' supporters cannot see themselves voting for Hillary Clinton in November. This could spell trouble for Clinton who will likely need Sanders' backers in order to win the White House."
rock
(13,218 posts)But don't you think that if a third of them wouldn't vote for Clinton that that speaks volumes about them (and not in a good way)?

(55,894 posts)of actual left-leaning voters won't vote for her.
The rest of the Sanders supporters weren't voting Democrat anyway.

(1,122 posts)The use of this made-up term is another reason why I am gladly rejecting Hillary Clinton for president of the United States. (I guess her voters love David Brock and Republican campaigns. Go figure!)
