Anecdotally, a lot of Sanders supporters say they're going to vote for Trump. Hillary is HATED by the most vocal segment of Sanders supporters, and they claim they're voting Trump, I guess for spite. (And maybe because Trump is arguably further left than Clinton on some issues, like healthcare.) Of course, Sanders supporters didn't get out to the polls very effectively to support their own guy, I don't know how many will go out in November without his involvement.

I think it's really impossible to accurately predict November at this point. There's a very strong anti-Trump and anti-Clinton sentiment, within both parties. I have no idea if those people are going to vote for whoever they think the lesser evil of those two is, whether they'll stay home, whether they'd vote for a fringe third party, or whether they'd vote for a prominent independent candidate.
