Tonights Bernie Sanders rally in Seattle, Washington is one of the biggest ones to date.
The Vermont senator will be speaking to a capacity crowd at Key Arena in Seattle, to excite his base in Washington State before voters caucus on March 26. According to tweets from the scene, the overflow crowd watching Sanders speech on screens outside the stadium might be bigger than the crowd inside, where capacity is 17,854. Not long after Secret Service started letting Sanders supporters inside the venue, the campaign already started preparing overflow space.
And, of course, in true Sanders fashion, Bernie spoke to the thousands gathered outside the arena before going inside to the main event:

BERNIE
has had some live reporting going on at the Rally.
I heard KIRO say that they allowed 20K inside and that there were thousands outside watching on big screens. I know that most of the folks that I canvassed with yesterday were planning on heading to Key Arena today.

(3,160 posts)in the palm of hand now. It is remarkable to watch. I can only imagine the feeling of experiencing the power of such a mass of people in total harmony with each other, and led by Bernie.
