They had over 20,000 people sign up to attend on their Facebook page. While they knew that wouldn't happen, they expected between 2k and 5k
I would guess it was 2,000 but I don't know for sure. Haven't seen an official count.
This rally was for liberal, progressive, people sick of the bullshit in our new oligarchy. They support Sanders, played a recent speech and the head of his Veterans Affairs for his campaign, Tyson Manker, was the keynote speaker. He was FABULOUS too.
They're short by almost $4,000 to pay for the event. If you can chip in even a few dollars, I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

(17,997 posts)Events like this cost a fortune to put on. And these guys poured their hearts, souls, sweat, tears and money into it. I know them and they're motivated to change the world for the better.
