Well with a credible source like that it must be true.
There may have been some voters like this but my best guess is it was a very small number. Not voting or voting for Jill Stein or some other maybe write in person would be the bulk of what disgruntled Sanders voters did. Sanders campaigned for H during the campaign a little bit as well.
I think the fake news might actually be right on this mark.... BUT they seem to ignore that TRUMP HIMSELF made appeals to Bernie voters...because he KNEW that they, too, were sick of the business as usual.
Trump also said that Bernie, though crazy, was essentially right regarding trade, and how the American worker was not being put first by Washington.

There are many terrible reasons for President Trump’s victory, but there are two things that were not a factor. First, Hillary was the perfect candidate; nothing she did harmed her candidacy in any way. Second, President Trump was the worst candidate imaginable; nothing he did helped his candidacy at all, except with racists, sexists, bigots, and the rest of the basket of deplorables.
LOLARMAOOTF
What a brilliant hypothesis! who would imagined some of Bernie supporters would vote for the queen of mean
I know a few Bernie voters, they HATE Trump. Just sayin.
Only insomuch as they stayed home or wrote in Bernie.
Anything else is bogus
Sanders voters stayed home.
Democrats were playing the antihistory and brand & celebrity card, and then Trump came in. We got history, brand and celebrity in a candidate.
Fake news.
Tired of the butthurt media still crying over November 2016.
The Bernie Bros stayed home on election day.
And in 2000 Gore could’ve taken Florida if couldve gotten all of the votes of the extreme left socialist and communist parties even without the Red International Greens.
But it poisons the well. As the Democrat Socialists court the Socialist Communist vote they turn off the blue collar Democrats who still dislike Communism and Socialism.
“2016 Cooperative Congressional Election Survey”
Follow the trail of this outfit (academics) and who actually does the survey for it - out of Palo Alto California together with another Left-of-center outfit.
