Which of those groups is more likely to end up voting for their respective parties' nominees come November? Discuss.

Probably #nevertrump because sanders supporters are mostly young and they vote less than the older-skewed nevertrump people.

The Democrats will bring Sandernistas to heel at and after the convention.  Pubs, on the other hand, will probably have to deal with a divided party until election day.

#NeverTrump.

Sandernista PUMAs are comprised of mostly Millennials.  Left-leaning Millennials tend to be more politically lazy and inactive than 1) Millennials of other political persuasions, and 2) more importantly, other age groups.

Yeah, a lot of Bernie people aren't going to bother to vote.

Which is basically achieving the same end as their Republican counterparts.

Nevertrump.  What can Hillary offer the GOP?  At least Donald's main views are idiosyncratic and nonpartisan enough that many democrats could support him.  There's a lot of democrats against illegal immigration and free trade.

Bernie supporters. Their turnout will not be meaningfully lower than it was for that group in 2012, and they'll still break 90% for Hillary if not more. Trump is not going to win the votes of conservatives in large numbers unless something unforeseen happens.
