Bernie supporters, who are you voting for if he doesn't get the nomination?

[PizzaSHARK]

Jill Stein.

ELI5 her. Green Party seems pretty reasonable, but it's hard to believe they'd have such a tiny percentage of votes if they didn't have some major issues blocking them. Does their stance on nonviolence extend to GET RID OF DA DAKKA or something?

Several million more people voted for Clinton dude.

You could just go by the percentages, so around 46% Sanders 54% Clinton. No need for "several million more", when you can see specific percentages.

That's 3 percentage points away from a simple 51% majority, by the way. It's not a huge blowout. Tuesday may of course skew it more one way or another.

[Sylreick]

Several more super delegates voted for Clinton dude.

Corrected.

You're assuming two facts not in evidence: they're liberal and they support Sanders. Also implicitly assumes they're capable of voting in U.S. elections.

Given the preponderance of woman haters and racists on this forum, which include as a significant subset a bunch of whiny white Euros terrified of the invading Muslim hordes, those are somewhat silly assumptions to make.

90%+ of actual Sanders supporters - as in those who voted for him in a primary or caucus - will vote for Clinton. The remainder will likely not have voted anyway, so its not a loss. When someone proclaims their desire for irrelevancy, I see no reason not to grant them their wish and treat them as irrelevant.

Clinton because I don't want to be deported. I'm not Mexican or undocumented but Hispanic is all the same to the Donald.

No it isnt "all the same". He is against ILLEGAL immigrants. The wall idea is fucking stupid. Which is almost as stupid as people thinking he will deport anyone that is hispanic because they are hispanic.

[Xar226]

Clinton. I won't let Trump win. I'd rather take the status quo than let Orange Glo win

Yup. If Trump wins this election, I want to be damn certain that it is 0% my fault. I'll hold my nose and vote for Hillary.

[Zeth Hawkins]

It really does though... Just by virtue of how our system works.

Would love to know how not voting is somehow an act that supports Trump.

Your logic:
Not voting for Clinton? You're helping Trump.
Not voting for Trump? You're helping Trump.

[Tragedia]

Oh c'mon, even without super delegates she would still win the pledged delegates and popular vote. Sanders ran tough and got further than anyone had ever imagined, but she clearly won.

Disclosure: I voted Sanders.

[Kallisto]

A vote for anyone other than Trump is a good vote imo.

Problem is in a FPTP system the only effective vote against Trump is to hold your nose and vote Hillary.

[Budong]

So basically if the democratic system doesn't choose the guy you like you'll vote for an even worse guy to "wake them up"?

Hush, logic is frowned upon here.

The other thread this guy started I tried to reason with them but between the 4chan morons and the blind Sanders supporters I just left. You can't reason with people who have abandoned their own.

Besides, lets be honest. I imagine the vast majority of those voting on the internet won't be voting in real life. Most of the opinions here are completely irrelevant and recycled garbage they heard from someone else.

[Xerra]

Go Trump, if the people can't see Bernie is worthy of being president then let it all burn! Let things collapse and shake at the foundation, sometimes learning must be done painfully.

[Boreaz]

Definitely voting Trump, can't stand the idea of Hilary being president.

[I Push Buttons]

Not voting for Trump? You're helping Trump.

Because Republicans have higher turnout. So potential votes for the Democrat being wasted on third party candidates, wasted on write-ins, or simply not cast at all is exactly what Republicans want...

Look at the 2000 election...

Imagine how different the last 16 years would have been if those 97,000 idiots in Florida didn't throw away their vote on Ralph Nader.

[Eviscero]

Clinton. If Bernie can't pull off a total Hail Mary, then I'll vote purely based on qualities I respect and intellect is at the top of the list. Trump is uneducated and inarticulate, so fuck him. Oh, and he's a racist charlatan, so fuck him. If you vote for Trump you're a hapless know-nothing and should be sterilized for the betterment of mankind.

[Darkrulerxxx]

i know how bad trump is, but hiliary is worse. i can't stand the corruption that we live in.

Hiliary will make it worse, Trump will set the fires to burn it down.

i rather have my country be reborn from the ashes then deal with this nonsense corruption bullshit we got going.

[endersblade]

The shitposting is real...why would you advocate the death of someone?

'Shitposting'

So edgy

Much angst

Wow

Why? Because it's Trump, that's why. Needs no further explanation.

Trump get assassinated? By who, them crazy gun toting liberals? I though if they picked up a weapon they burst into flame.

Yeah, that does seem to be the problem. The people who would typically do such a thing are actually supporting him this time. Kinda sucks.

[Eviscero]

Go Trump, if the people can't see Bernie is worthy of being president then let it all burn! Let things collapse and shake at the foundation, sometimes learning must be done painfully.

Except that won't happen. Sorry. It'll just be gridlock and embarrassment with very little accomplished for four years until Trump is removed after 1 term or is impeached a bit sooner for gross incompetence. At least Bernie's agenda has a chance of being partially instituted / fought for by Clinton. Even if she is a self-serving roboticrat.

it will happen, it will cause the american people to rise up against the corruption, it's better than the current status quo.

[Sunseeker]

So basically Trump.

If you mean, "letting Trump win because I didn't vote for the lesser of two evils and actually practiced the Democracy I preach" then yes.

Lowing the vote count for Hillary isn't the same as voting for Trump. It's mathematically inaccurate. If there are 100 possible votes and two possible options, Refusing to vote reduces the available total to 99, at worst it reduces the Hillary total by 1, but does not simultaneously increase the Trump vote by 1. So the vote would remain 49-50, instead of 50-50, not 49-51.

In any case, I won't vote for Trump, but I won't stop America from actualizing its stupidity and I won't continue to support the status quo.

[Eviscero]

I'll believe it when I see it. I think it's much more likely that we'll have riots that will merely lead to more disproportionate incarceration of minorities. These will be quickly squashed but will fuel the anti-white rhetoric trump used to get elected, only furthering the divide in this country.
