Only 5% of Democratic voters would be upset if Hillary won the nomination

Four in five Democratic voters would be either enthusiastic (22%) or satisfied (58%) with Clinton as their party’s nominee. Just 11% would be dissatisfied and only 5% would be upset. Even a majority of Sanders supporters (59%) would be okay if Clinton ultimately won the nomination over their preferred candidate.

<...>

Clinton scores a 73% favorable and 15% unfavorable rating. Sanders earns a 59% favorable and 16% unfavorable rating.

and that low enthusiastic number is a pretty strong indicator.


Try comparing that with how many on the other side would be enthusiastic to vote against her.


Not good. Not good at all.

When you have to build up your favored candidate by saying not too many people would be upset if they won the nomination. Hardly a resounding accolade even if true.

I would be radically dissatisfied and most definitely upset if Clinton is the nominee. She gets a zero favorable from me.

Something Hillary supporters just can't seem to grasp.

If she wins the nominations, I hope she wins. I can't vote for her, but I hope she wins.

You either aren't a woman or a minority.
