Tough day for some Sanders supporters?

I'd wondered about this, but I keep seeing former Bernouts shill for Hillary despite the provable fact that the DNC screwed their candidate out of the nomination.

But when it came time to mail in his ballot, it was a “far more emotional experience” than he anticipated, said Fredrick, 34, a stockroom employee at a Crate and Barrel furniture store. Though he said his decision may sound “foolish” and “irrational,” he wrote in the name of Sen. Bernie Sanders, Clinton's Democratic primary rival, because he couldn’t bring himself to vote for the former secretary of State.

“It was personal appeasement more than anything else,” he said of his decision. “I felt like I could not make that vote (for Clinton). It sat wrong with me.”
For the most ardent Sanders supporters, Tuesday is undoubtedly a tough day.
Some may write in Sanders’ name or choose other candidates, though polls show most will vote for Clinton, even if their heart isn’t in it. An overwhelming majority — 82% — of Sanders Democrats who are likely voters said they will support Clinton, but only 32% said they are “very enthusiastic” about it, according to a recent Washington Post-ABC News poll.

I have one at work that instantly flipped to Clinton even though he was all sanders. We even showed him how they railroaded sanders, didn't matter. Just sad.
