Only 3% would vote for GOP candidate Trump
6/06/2016 10:28:00 AM Eastern

A majority of millennial supporters of Sen. Bernie Sanders will vote for his Democratic opponent Hillary Clinton if he pulls out of the race, according to a poll conducted by MTV.
MTV says that 57% of the millennials who say they prefer Sanders say they will vote for Clinton, 22% said they would write someone in, 18% won’t vote and just 3% said they’d vote for Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee.

during the primaries. There will be some that won't vote for Hillary because they were not Democrats to begin with, are part of the radical left, just out of pique, or (_______) fill in the blank. But most really conscientious BS supporters know there is more at stake than having your candidate be the winner. I do feel bad for the really energized, committed BS supporter who has been led to believe Bernie will somehow convince all the Super Delegates to abandon HRC and side with him. That has been a false narrative for far too long. If there is rioting and violence at the convention, the blame will be totally on Bernie Sanders.

Totally.

If that happens its on Sanders shoulders and his campaign staff as well.

They should be shutting down this talk but they let it grow instead.
