Will Hillary get a significant chunk of Sander's supporters when she gets the nomination? Or will people just not vote?

Exit poll has Sanders losing the AA vote only 30-65 though, and if Oklahoma (27-71) is any indication, he will have this.
Odd:
It's hard to say, Liz Warren can do some bridging but from what I've been reading the #BernieorBust sentiment runs strong among his voters. Significant portion of them are independents with no party loyalty also.
CNN just said the rest of wayne county votes amount to 20% of the state votes where they're going to see a big push for Hillary. Surely that can't be right
Wayne County in total represents about 20% of the states population, not the outstanding votes.[/QUOTE]
I think Trump gets his share, especially white blue collar workers who are against the trade deals. Trump and Sanders seem to have some similar ideas on trade.
If she had endorsed him (especially before MA) and would then join Bernie in asking for votes for Clinton, it would have a much bigger impact. Her standing fell a bit because of her non-endorsement.
Another 7k odd chunk taken out from the lead with Wayne votes, but still 25k gap with districts running out. Pretty much everything at this point depends on how much of Flint and Detroit have already reported.
IN OTHER NEWS, Clinton's winning by 67% in Mississippi
Sanders should make the statewide threshold, but may miss out in one of the districts according to Nate Cohn.

They may say that but Liz or Bernie is only the vessel with which they convey their dissatisfaction, very little chance of them reneging on ideals.
17 thousand votes with less than 8% to report.
So the lead's halved with a couple of Wayne dumps. Bernie's still the favourite here but you can't call a race this tight with so much left to come in.
Where are you seeing 92% reporting? I still only see 85%.
There it came, the Detroit vote. Lead down to 1.8%.
800 precincts left, 150 in Detroit.
He's got this.
I hope.

Finally, Cruz leading in Potato state.
Those Dems who crossed over to vote for Kasich must be kicking themselves now, not that I'm complaining
He's such a fecking tool! It's hard to believe he's an actual real life human being!AP calls it for Bernie. Wooo!
Well done to Bernie, will be interesting to see if Ohio follows this pattern as it's showed similar Clinton leads to Michigan.
MSNBC called it too. Wonder how this will carry over to Ohio.
If it does it could be huge because he has a nice run of states after that.
Best night since NH. Winning a state where he was -20, staying viable in Mississippi.
And on 15th the confederacy is finally over. Now it comes down to not getting clobbered in NC and especially Florida. 35%+ should be his target. Then he moves on to easier states.

Over 130,000 votes counted in Oakland county for the Dems so far, only 111 between them
I'm in Oakland county. I won democracy!
Hillary won by 8k in Oakland. You were part of a broader victory though, which is itself part of a broader loss.Looking at how Wayne County swung late on, Bernie's strong showing in Oakland, Macomb and Genesee was huge here.
Nate Silver said:
Some Michigan pollsters will have some long faces tomorrow.
One thing for sure, Clinton's supporters will be much more careful after tonight. Estimated 5-7% who voted in the GOP primary are Dems and if only half of them are Clinton's, she'd have won with them voting for her instead.
Still, this win will have done so much for the Sanders's campaign. A welcome reprieve for him from the recent coverage.

Please tell me this isn't a thing among Sanders fans...
I shall make it a thing
EDIT: I'm not sure where, for example, Nevada is. It's geographically the south. But it didn't vote like the rest. The terrible states for him (SC, Alabama, Arkansas, Tenessee, Miss, Georgia, Texas, Virginia) do have that 1 thing in common.

Can democrats and republicans please come together in a bipartisan fashion and laugh at Little Rubio.
Some face-saving going on HRC supporters. Apparently re-tweeting stories about Dems switching and voting for Kasich thinking she had it in the bag!!
This counter is amazing

Grandpa Munster crushing it in Idaho so far.
Ayatollah Cruz on the way? I hope not.

I thought Idaho would be Trumpy. lots of militia types and the like.
Who is expected to win in Hawaii btw?
Tom Hanks.
Kasich's wife is a total MILF too!
Rubio falling behind Kasich.. so much so for my prediction. Gonna be Trump vs Clinton now
