197. The article does not say that Democrats were driven by conscience, and so pissed off that Bernie didn't get the

nomination that they voted for the grifter, in the general election.

What it identifies is that there are some primary voters who voted for Bernie, who then later voted for the grifter in the general.

Bernie had a coalition. He appealed to people beyond the normal Democratic voter. He appealed to the Libertarian voter and other "fringe" thinkers. He had a populist message. People who felt Bernie spoke to them would not necessarily align w/ Hillary Clinton, as she represented the traditional "establishment".

Toward the end of the article they discuss some of this nuance. Here is one sentence that speaks to that analysis. "A more important caveat, perhaps, is that other statistics suggest that this level of "defection" isn't all that out of the ordinary. Believing that all those Sanders voters somehow should have been expected to not vote for Trump may be to misunderstand how primary voters behave."
