Like 12% of Bernie voters. I imagine meeting 12% of any demographic is rare.

I don't think enough Bernie voters flipped their votes to cause the Trump win. I do believe that many of them stayed home though, but I blame that on the DNC running Hillary Clinton on the most deenergizing platform. I did vote for her, but I didn't consider her a real progressive. She was just the status quo option when Trump was dementia flavored fascism.
