It'll be interesting to see how moderate Alabamians reconcile the dominating mantras of "Anyone but Trump" with "Anyone but Clinton." Which fear will prevail?

Donald Trump won Alabama by a landslide. He won every county in the state. But still, his victory is a little deceiving. He continues to repulse a significant portion of his party. And only 29.6 percent of voters in Alabama - in either party - voted for Donald Trump. Interestingly, Hillary Clinton's and Bernie Sanders' combined total (386,056) was greater than Trump's total of 371,715 votes. In fact, 30.78 percent of voters in yesterday's combined primaries supported the two Democratic candidates.

However, turnout was greater for Republicans in general. 856,123 Republicans turned out for the primary in Alabama versus 397,890 for Democrats.

Because Alabama is an open primary state, part of the low turnout on the Democratic side could be attributed to crossover voters. Democrats may have filled out Republican ballots because they're more comfortable facing Trump than Marco Rubio in a general election (or because the old man at the polls assumed they were Republican and just handed them that ballot and they felt too awkward correcting him).

The total voting number will certainly change in November. For comparison, 1,255,925 Alabamians voted for Mitt Romney in 2012 and 795,696 Alabamians voted for Barack Obama. Turnout for the primaries was roughly half the general election turnout for 2012 - 2,051,621 voters on Election Day 2012 vs. 1,254,013 total voters in this week's Alabama primaries.

If we can expect a similar turnout in November, the GOP was much closer to maximizing its turnout during the primary than the Democrats, whose primary turnout was nearly half of their 2012 general election turnout.

That discrepancy likely reflects the "Anyone but Trump" campaign that motivated moderate Republicans and, probably, some Democrats to crossover and vote in the Republican primary this year.

Trump is polarizing enough that a not-insubstantial number of moderate Republicans may be willing to bite the bullet and vote for a candidate like Clinton, but it would require deprogramming decades of anti-Clinton bias.

With that in mind, let's have some fun with the primary numbers. This is an imperfect exercise, of course.

For Democrats to even come within striking distance in Alabama, they'd need an unprecedented number of Republicans to jump ship to block Trump, throw their vote away on a write-in candidate or simply stay home. If we assume that everyone who voted yesterday votes in November and - implausibly - that anyone who did not vote yesterday also does not vote in November, then the Democrats would need to flip 229,117 Republican primary voters for Clinton to beat Trump by a single vote.

Let's say for the sake of argument that all Alabama John Kasich and Jeb Bush supporters are ideologically closer to Clinton than they are to Trump. This is not unreasonable, given the statements denouncing Trump by Kasich supporters like Gov. Robert Bentley. The two candidates combined for a mere 41,914 votes. If they all went to Clinton, she would still need to find 187,203 votes to win.

For the remaining candidates, it's a little trickier. I think we can reasonably assume that Republicans that voted for dropout candidates like Mike Huckabee, Rand Paul, Lindsey Graham, Carly Fiorina see something in Donald Trump that gives them pause. Whether it is because Trump is insufficiently religious, insufficiently conservative, or abundantly misogynistic, for some reason these voters are throwing their votes away rather than supporting Trump, Ted Cruz or Rubio. It's unlikely that they'd find common ground with Hillary Clinton but, for the sake of this exercise, let's argue they'd rather vote for her than for Trump. If we combine all the votes for candidates that have dropped out - as well as uncommitted votes - that's a swing of 18,523 votes.

Clinton would still need to pull 168,680 votes from the Cruz, Rubio and Carson camps - or roughly 40 percent of their 427,916 combined vote total.

(Side note: with Carson potentially dropping out of the race this week, I am anticipating that his supporters may divide evenly among Trump, Cruz and Rubio for the remainder of the race).

It's likely that much of the "Anybody but Trump" crowd voted for Marco Rubio during Tuesday's primary election; he was being billed by GOP insiders as the most palatable alternative. But even in the unlikely scenario that Clinton won all 159,799 Rubio votes, she'd need to pull in 9,000 of the more conservative Cruz and Carson supporters.

What'd be more plausible - though, again, still incredibly unlikely - is that Bentley, Rep. Mo Brooks and others spearhead a massive "Anybody but Trump" movement and Clinton pulls 30 to 50 percent from each individual candidate's support base. And, voila, there you have it, Alabama votes blue for the first time since Jimmy Carter won the state in 1976.

This probably (definitely) isn't going to happen. Clinton's unpopularity with Republican voters in Alabama is overwhelming; turnout will be different in November than it was in March; and down-ballot Alabama Republicans have compelling interests to fall in line and support the eventual nominee. But it's a testament to how polarizing Donald Trump is that it's even conceivable that it could happen. A 230,000 vote swing is massive but the path is there - particularly given that Democratic turnout will likely be higher in the fall.

So take heart, Anybody-But-Trumpeters, if enough of you stay home, vote for Clinton, or write in Nick Saban, you'll still have a chance to pull off in the general election what you spectacularly failed to do in the primary.
