I thought it would be worse, and it probably would be if Bernie-backers who stayed home were counted in this survey.  So many Republicans who weren't happy about Trump held their noses and voted for him anyway, but too many Bernie bros couldn't do the same for Clinton.

There is something that Democrats need to learn from Republicans: Party unity.

Yes, and both sides continuing to blame each other doesn't help.
Also, the popular vote doesn't matter. Clinton won it, but did not win a majority.
It is possible, but rare, to win a majority of the popular vote and still lose the electoral college.
People living in safe states shouldn't feel compelled to vote for the lesser of two evils.
This is why we need something like IRV.

As far as the GOP goes, the anti-Trump Republicans blew it, honestly. They should have united early, in favor of one candidate.

34% of Kasich voters apparently went to Hillary, try again.

So?  What percentage of the Republican electorate consisted of Kasich voters?

Actually,
I  believe that it was the independents that decided the election and many of those who voted in open primaries did vote for Sanders.
Some voted for Kasich, but not as many as those who voted for Sanders. At least that would be my guess.
