in the power structure within Texas, one just need to take a look at the local coverage. National coverage was much greater than the few minutes it received on the local broadcast news and their respective websites. There is a change coming to Texas and it will be led by Texas women.'

The population of Texas is 26 million. That crowd was less than two hundredths of one percent of the state.

You can drive 8 hours and still be in Texas , so many people simply don't have the time (or gas money) to travel there. That many people showing up is significant. It's not something we see down here.
