I knocked on doors with a candidate and we talked to hundreds of registered Democrats this spring- before Hillary was the presumptive nominee. A handful of them were supporting Trump at that time. I have also talked to numerous Bernie supporters- the kind that show up for rallies. A significant number of them will not vote for Hillary, but most won't vote for Trump either. They will vote for Jill Stein, write in Bernie, or undervote.

I do see Hillary's history of support for earlier trade deals and her waffling on TPP as a clear liability. Picking a TPP supporter like Kaine will confirm the doubts that many have.

There will be some Republicans who vote for Jill Stein, too, but neither group will be statistically significant in number. This is an attempt to sow discord in the Democratic Party. Don't listen to it.
