Democrats: Will you support your primary opponent in the general election?

[NeverAgain]

Of course! I have been steadily warming up to Hillary again, and I think she would be a decent president, but she'd be better on the VP slot with Bernie imo.

[Eraserhead]

I doubt it. There's no real reason to do so, I'm not even in a competitive state.

[Trapsy]

Yes! I will vote for Sanders if Clinton doesn't win. We need to reshape him for the general.

[The Other Castro]

51 votes in, Sanders leads Clinton 25-21, with 61.5% of Clinton supporters unwilling to back Sanders, and 78.6% of Sanders supporters unwilling to back Clinton.

[Crumpets]

Of course I'd vote for Sanders. It's not like the Republican ticket is going to be Huntsman/Powell, and there's a good chance I'll be living in a swing state next November. I'm not going to let my sorebuttitude give us a president Trump.

[Averroës Nix]

Obviously, yes. Of course, virtually all of us will get over our hang-ups when the time comes, when our only choice is between the Democratic nominee and a living nightmare.

[Pyro]

Registered Dem in my state.
Will vote for Sanders in the primary.
Will vote Green/PSL if he is not the nominee.

[bagelman]

Obviously, yes. Of course, virtually all of us will get over our hang-ups when the time comes, when our only choice is between the Democratic nominee and a living nightmare.

While Arkansas massively trending towards the GOP in 2008 proves that scorned primary voters can have an effect on the race, the rest of the country's election results support your prediction. The risk generally isn't them voting for the other guy or gal but not being motivated to vote at all. Assuming s/he shows up at the polls, a sane sanders supporter will not vote GOP or third party when they live in an important swing state and it's Clinton vs. Cruz.

inb4 "All Sanders supports are not sane because I disagree with them" and other empty blabbery from either side

[Sir Mohamed]

Of course I would support Bernie if Hillary somehow gets defeated.

We can't afford a GOPer, who rolls back all the accomplishments of President Obama. His legacy must be protected.

[Marokai Backbeat]

There is very very little chance I will vote for Hillary.

[Torie]

It depends on who the Pub nominee is, but Sanders is a far higher hill for me to climb than Hillary.

[🦀🎂🦀🎂]

Fine, I guess if Vermin Supreme/Willie Wilson by some miracle don't get the nomination I may consider endorsing the other hacks running.

[Eraserhead]

It depends on who the Pub nominee is, but Sanders is a far higher hill for me to climb than Hillary.

How do you vote in Sanders v. Trump? How about Sanders v. Cruz?

I don't know. Beyond policy positions (mostly horrible, but also mostly never going to become law), I think they are all temperamentally not suited to be POTUS, and I don't trust their judgment. So I would just have to continue to assess that over time.

[Bojack Horseman]

Yes. I will not be guilty of what I've criticized Sanders supporters over.

[Slander and/or Libel]

Obviously, yes. Of course, virtually all of us will get over our hang-ups when the time comes, when our only choice is between the Democratic nominee and a living nightmare.

This. Jesus. The specter of Florida 2000 haunts us all, and should.

I think, and I speak for myself, the most electable GOPer for Dems is John Kasich.

[JMT]

I'm a Sanders supporter, but I will enthusiastically vote for Clinton in the GE if she is the nominee.

[President Johnson]

I would support Sanders, but I don't know whether I would vote for him in the general election against either The Donald or Kasich.
