52. 538 says 74% of Sanders voters voted for Clinton

Which is a similar percentage of Clinton voters that voted for Obama. I was an Obama boy in 2008 and remember the Pumas. 12% voted for Trump while another 10% voted for either Gary Johnson or Jill Stein. The remaining percentage didn’t vote.

In 2020 it was apparent he was going to lose the primary after he lost Michigan. He wouldn’t have been able to stay in with Biden outperforming Hillary Clinton.
