Related: About this forumWill Stein/Johnson voters vote Dem down ballot?
I've talked to a few Bernie people that just can not be talked into voting for Hillary.
They say they will vote Green, Lib, or stay home. None would consider Trump.
In this case, I do hope they vote because I Think they will vote for Dem candidates on the rest of the ballot due to their hatred for the GOP.

(68,618 posts)Many won't vote for any Democrat if their words are to be believed. Any person who would not vote for the only person between us and Trump...who may indeed use nukes and would end Roe V Wade is not progressive period. Green voters are spoilers and should be called out for their traitor ways at every opportunity...particularly this year.

After all, Bernie is supporting Clinton, not Stein.

(11,617 posts)But I think most of the noise we hear is from right wingers pretending.
I wonder who is paying for Stein's ad campaign?

(10,884 posts)Since I voted for Bernie in the primary myself.
However, I'm a yellow dog and easily pivoted to Hillary.
These people are more liberal and one is a socialist.
They are very anti war and very pro environment.
The anti war ones are voting for Johnson and the environmentalists for Stein.
But, these are just a handful of Bernie voters.
The vast majority I know or correspond with will vote for Clinton and straight Dem ticket. Yea!
