Some also voted for Gary Johnson but most of the percentage that didn't vote for Hillary Clinton in the general election actually voted for Trump.

In 2016 Sanders did well in the primary with self-described conservatives & moderates or Republicans & Independents that ended up voting for Trump.

About 74% of 2016 Sanders primary voters voted for Hillary Clinton in the general election and I was one of those people.
