Poll: Hillary 43, Trump 39, Johnson 4

As of this week’s poll, just 57% of those Sanders voters say they will support Clinton in November. One in ten now say they will vote for Trump (meanwhile, 16% of GOP primary voters who did not support Trump now say they will vote for Clinton). The Sanders voters have not increased their support for Clinton since the last Economist/YouGov Poll conducted two weeks ago. Nearly half wish he would run as an independent instead of supporting Clinton. But many have changed their emotional response to the former Secretary of State’s victory. Two weeks ago, nearly four in ten Sanders supporters said they would be “upset” if Clinton were the nominee. That percentage has been cut nearly in half in this week’s poll.

Among Republican voters, there appears to be more distress from those who opposed Trump in the primaries and caucuses. Nearly half (46%) of Republican voters who favored candidates other than Trump continue to say they are “upset” with the prospect of a Trump nomination.
