I don't think that they would vote at all.

I don't know the exact numbers, but lots of Sanders supporters are young, and even Sanders has admitted that he can only win Iowa (and, presumably, other states) if those college-age supporters show up to vote.

And, let's be honest, most of those young supporters are best known for slacktivism and only caring and being involved if they think that their candidate can win. Once their candidate appears to be a dead duck, they'll run away from the political process as well---unless, I guess, Hillary starts promising free college tuition and guaranteed 4.0 GPAs to all as well.
