I've seen some analysis that thinks that the Naderites did not go to Kerry. That as a result of the "dirty tricks" by the Kerry campaign to keep Nader off the ballot in many states, the Naderites either voted for Bush out of anger or did not vote in the Presidential race at all.
No way to know, but it could be that the efforts to keep Nader off the ballot backfired.
