Speaking as one (though granted toward the older edge of millenials) Clinton by a ton. The idea that liberal millenials (Bernie's base) would vote for Trump is utterly absurd.
Yup, my bernie loving son will vote for Hillary. Most millennials believe Republicans are vile.
If history is a guide, chances are a more or less three-way split among:
1) Clinton;
2) Trump;
3) abstain, unlisted write-in (e.g. Sanders), listed third party.
Your poll question omits 3, which will probably be significant by around 1/3.
I think of lot of them will just not vote. They dislike Hillary (and they should...she's practically stealing the delegates from Sanders) but they also dislike Trump. Sure, some will switch their vote to Hillary but not as many as she's hoping.
Home team Dems will and those who think there is no good Republican option (like myself) will go and vote Hillary. It's not that Republicans are vile, the Republicans running however are.
I think they will mostly turn on Trump because some of the millennials are fed up with pc and also because they realize that the mercantilistic economic plan of Trump could give'em way more jobs than Hillary Clinton economic platform
Millennials are rabidly against stereotyping and negatively treating someone based on demographics. Rabidly. You left off the option they are most likely to take, as pointed out by multiple posters, they will stay home. If they don't, it won't be Trump they vote for.

This USAF veteran Gen X'er was right there with everyone supporting Paul.
I also supported and contributed to Rand this year, hoping against hope that the average American ******* would wake up and support a candidate based on character and re-establishing liberty and individual and states' rights. Instead, the majority of doe-eyed dopes of this country that I proudly served continue to feed Fedzilla and support charismatic manipulators that create more socioeconomic/racial tension.
I'm only supporting Cruz to offset Trump, and - God help us all - Trump to offset Clinton or Sanders.
Most Bernie supporters would vote for Hillary rather than see Trump become President, me included. I think Hillary is bought and paid for by Goldman Sachs and I'm actually on Trumps side on immigration, but he's not fit to be President of the United States. You want your children to see someone who behaves like that as a role model? Who can't take criticism without insulting the critic or calling them a loser with bad ratings? It's hilarious that this thing has even gotten this far. Imagine him nominating a supreme court justice? Will he turn that into a reality TV show?
We can only hope that Clinton sees that level of support Bernie got on certain issues and she goes more in that direction after being elected. Just based on the fact that Scalia and presumably Ginsburg will need to be replaced during the next term...I'll take my chances with her.
Please don't respond to my posts again. You are hopelessly a liberal and will never agree with my perspective. Save yourself the embarrassment of trying to refute what I say because all you do is spout of liberal slander out of the fantasy playbook.
You have no say in who responds to your posts and who does not. I'll respond all day long if I choose to.
Why don't you block me?
Again with the fantasy language because that IS where you reside. Along with most conspiracy minded, right wing nutjobs.
Have a great day.
