Here are numbers from 100 of the 600-700 cities involved in today’s Women’s March opposing Trumpism. (Sources vary from police to organizer estimates to media estimates.)

What they all seem to have in common—as we're all aware by now—is that more people—typically FAR MORE—showed up than expected. In addition to the 500,000 to 680,000 in D.C., the 400,000 in NYC and the 250,000 in Chicago, there are these:

100,000+ in Denver (Denver Post)
60,000 in Atlanta  (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)
40,000-50,000 in Austin, Texas (Austin American-Statesman)
750,000 in Los Angeles (Los Angeles Times)
100,000 in Portland, Oregon (The Oregonian)
5-10,000 in Augusta, Maine: (police estimate and organizers’ estimate} 600+ in Augusta, Georgia (WRDW)
15,000 in Cleveland: (Cleveland.com)
90,000-100,000 in Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota: (St. Paul Pioneer Press)
20,000 in Houston: (Houston.com)
75,000-100,000 in Madison, Wisconsin: (Channel 3000)
5-8,000 in Dallas (Dallas Morning News)
10-15,000 in Santa Fe, New Mexico (Santa Fe New Mexican)

Please add numbers from where you marched today and I will add them to this list.

Now, all we need to do to convert the millions who showed up today into an ongoing effort to topple Trump, Trumpism and the politics that put this fascist crew into office.

... and so on.

All of the above are high population density areas and traditionally "Blue" in voting. And yet ... completely pathetic turn out.

Hard hats don't wear no pink hats.

Ahem, though I agree these hard hat areas are less predisposed to wear pink hats, let's remember that one church in Grand Rapids, Michigan sent 7 bus loads to Washington.  Even my town (which was featured on Fox News as the epicenter of Trumpian Michigan, had large numbers of people that went to DC and/or Lansing.  Cleveland would be the same.  It is a straight shot to DC from Cleveland and thus a lot of people from Cleveland would opt to go to DC as opposed to march in Public Square.
