But at the recent Washington caucus, where most people supported Sanders, there were a few who said they would never vote for Clinton if Sanders does not get the nomination. And there were a couple long-time feminists who were very disgruntled about Sanders, and I had the impression might sit out the general if Sanders is the nominee.
So the number of folks who wouldn't vote for Sanders is probably not zero. But I doubt they would vote for any of the Rs on offer either.
Women / feminists who won't vote for Sanders if he is the nominee are totally ridiculous! So they'll take a chance and risk a republican getting into office just because a woman didn't win the nominee?! Duh! Talk about "cutting off your nose to spite your face"!
And it's not like Clinton will do any more for them than will Bernie Sanders. Bernie Sanders will be an advocate for the important women's issues just as much as Hillary Clinton.
I'm on the fence. I think Bernie is a nice guy but would be a disastrous president.
I think that's just an assumption that too many people make. His agenda might be a challeng and perhaps he won't be able to do all that he wants to do but he will set the course of the country in a new and better direction.
And how successful he is depends, in large part, on the amount of support he gets from the public and who that public votes for re; congress don't ya think?
So what then? You just wouldn't vote at all and take a chance?
I've said it before and I'll say it again, as a Democrat with half a brain (Sanders supporters are you listening) I'll vote for any Democrat if it kept any Republican out of the White House.

Personally, since Republican gerrymandering pretty much insures that there won't be any signifiant change in the House, not being able to do all he wants, is overly optimistic. So setting a new course is highly unlikely, optimistically speaking. The most I would expect from would be to at least block the crazies from doing any more damage than they have. Frankly is Sanders want to set a new course there is no better place than where he already is, in the Senate.
What's the point for the third choice, "I'm not a democrat"? You should either omit that question, or follow it by asking if they'll vote for Sanders.
Btw, we keep hearing democrats say they'd do anything to prevent GOP from winning the election, but not hearing republicans say the same about democrat winning. So it sounds like:
Democrats: Vote to prevent GOP
Republicans: Vote for GOP

No. If the GOP continues to play their stupid games, this is one (soon to be former Republican, when this election is over), who will vote to PREVENT the GOP as President and for every last other Republican on the ticket.
The GOP doesn't realize that we Trump supporters are not just talking about the presidency when we say that we will vote against them, we are talking about every one who runs who took their little pot shots, or stayed silent to the public during this run. I will vote against them every single election....every 2 years, every 4 years, and I am not even close to being alone in that.
