Wish I could be out there, but unfortunately came down with a bad cold.

What I can do is applaud the many people who went today - to rally, to march, to stand on sidewalks and overpasses to cheer and support.

I want to give an especially thankful shout out to our many DU sisters and brothers who attended today.

You rock!

[Wounded Bear]

1. Have not heard of one that missed projections...

[suffragette]

2. Exactly. King 5 said 3 miles of marchers in Seattle!

[Wounded Bear]

3. Wow, I didn't know...

it has been encouraging to hear from some of the red states and turnout there, too.

[suffragette]

69. Seattle's been updated to 120,000 now.

Seeing that for several cities. Even initial numbers that were fantastic were lower than total turnout.

[PearliePoo2]

4. Over 50,000 people downtown Seattle!

fuck you donald!

[suffragette]

9. Miles and miles of women, men, and children.

Solidarity!

[Eleanors38]

16. 40,000 in Austin -- set record for protest march!

[suffragette]

22. Thank you! Added to OP. great to set a record there!

[Dulcinea]

61. 60,000 was the estimate in Atlanta.

And that was with severe thunderstorms all morning!

[suffragette]

65. Thanks for this! I'll update in OP.

[sagetea]

5. Over 5,000 in Boise, Idaho

Good on them!

[LAS14]

14. This gives me hope for the initiative to become a presence in every red state! nt

[uponit7771]

101. whoa

[killbotfactory]

6. Marched with my 8yo daughter today

It's important to get it on record that not all of humanity has lost its goddamned mind.

[suffragette]

10. Thank you! I love the generations marching together.

[littlemissmartypants]

7. Thanks for this suffragette.

Following on line today from Narobi to North Carolina it's been truly remarkable.

[suffragette]

11. You're welcome. We might not have been able to go, but I'm damned well going to still

Be as supportive as I can.

"From Nairobi to North Carolina ..." Beautiful!

[littlemissmartypants]

13. The drone footage from Atlanta is amazing.

I caught screen shots of it on the NBC feed. I wish I was smart enough to know how to share it. Right now I am deliriously happy after more than six hours of web surfing, "women's march" and it's been a historic day worldwide. The scope and magnitude of the support is mind boggling. I really hope someone aggregates the data and tells the truth about the totals. Very encouraging to see from afar.

[suffragette]

25. Do you know attendance members for Atlanta? Yes, it is encouraging to see this today!

[littlemissmartypants]

30. Estimated 15,000 by the time it reached the Capitol.

[suffragette]

33. Thank you! Added to OP. What a wonderful picture!

[Dulcinea]

127. 60,000 according to WSB-TV. eom

[suffragette]

134. The one thing in common is so many more showed up everywhere than anticipated.

I've never seen so many numbers being adjusted UPWARDS for marches as I have today.
Usually it's the opposite as police or municipalities follow up with numbers lower than organizer's counts.
The enthusiasm and urgency of having these today is truly undeniable.
I'll update Atlanta.
Thanks!

[SamKnause]

12. Thank you to all who are participating !!!

[suffragette]

26. Yes, heartily share that feeling!

[jodymarie aimee]

15. over 75,000 here in Madison

you know, we used to be a radical hub, until the pig Walker took over.

[suffragette]

18. Thanks jodymarie. I added to OP. it's tragic how Koch minions have taken over once proud

Cities and states.

[fishwax]

24. this is quite crazy. never seen anything like it.

[suffragette]

38. It is wonderful to see.

So bummed I could not go today, but glad I can come to DU to still share the vibe.

[smirkymonkey]

27. Bravo to all who marched!

I was planning to attend the Boston march today but blew out my knee last night and am here w/ it elevated and on ice. But watching and cheering from the sidelines!

[suffragette]

39. I empathize with you, smirky. I was so looking forward to going.

But I am glad we have DU so we can still gather together in support.

Btw, if you have a bag of frozen peas, they make a great ice pack since they conform to your body and don't have any sharp edges.

[smirkymonkey]

107. Are you hurt too? If so I am sorry.

I slipped on a path last night and my knee popped out - I have a bad knee, many ski accidents and many surgeries - it popped back in but very swollen and sore. I am using frozen veggies as ice packs. They work great! Thank you for your concern!

[suffragette]

115. No, but I have a bad cold. Just hoping it won't last long or get worse.

Frozen veggies are best ice pack. Had many a sprained ankle and used them.
Hope you feel better soon.

[smirkymonkey]

126. You too!

[LAS14]

28. Anyone know about Wyoming?

I started Googling red states. There were marches in Cheyenne and Casper, pictures but no counts. Also in Jackson Hole, but I guess that doesn't really count as red....

[Qanisqineq]

31. There were marches in ND,too

Bismarck, Fargo, and Grand Forks.

[meadowlark5]

29. I live in Colorado and the march well exceeded what they were expecting

Expectations were around 40,000 and this is from a local news article:

Police have stated that 100,000 have been verified as being in Denver but people on the ground estimate it to be closer to 200,000.

[suffragette]

34. Thank you! Added to OP. Wow, that is impressive!

[littlemissmartypants]

32. Pittsburgh 10 to 15 thousand estimated.

The numbers are mind boggling.

Chicago ( Thanks Obama. )

250,000

?quality=85&strip=all&w=640

43. Thanks! Added Pittsburgh. Already had Chicago up. Public spaces full of people. Love it!

[Qanisqineq]

[suffragette]

48. I'm seeing much higher numbers, up to 100,000, being reported elsewhere.

[littlemissmartypants]

51. I don't doubt that. I think we're seeing some shoddy

Reporting. No shock there. The final analysis will be spectacular if someone does the due diligence to research it. It wold definitely make someone a rocking women's studies thesis.

[suffragette]

54. It would be a great thesis.

Here's one of the reports.

http://portlandtribune.com/pt/9-news/341302-221594-womens-march-fills-waterfront-park

Organizers of Saturday's Portland Women's March estimated that nearly 100,000 people showed up at Tom McCall Waterfront Park Saturday in a steady rain for the national movement that is expected to attract millions across the country.
~~~
The rally included an hour of speeches and then a nearly 2-mile march through downtown. Portland police said so many people attended the event that the front of the march wound through the 44-block route and returned to Waterfront Park before the end of the march had moved. TriMet's downtown service was disrupted several times because of the size of the crowd.

[suffragette]

58. Just saw an update on Seattle to 120,000. Even earlier estimates today were low.

https://mobile.twitter.com/komonews/status/822919938255962112?p=v

Wow! The Seattle Police Department estimates at least 120,000 in attendance at today's Woman's March. More info: bit.ly/2jM7d90 pic.twitter.com/mwDmXDSNnx

[llmart]

42. Any estimates from Cleveland???

I am so psyched!

[littlemissmartypants]

46. Estimated 5,000+ for Cleveland.

Pictures look like more

53. St. Petersburg (FL, not Russia) 25,000

http://www.democraticunderground.com/10028510301

So did they have a march in St. Pete, Russia?????

[suffragette]

[NotThisTime]

55. Local Boston News updating news to 150K - most ever seen in generations if ever per Police

No arrests, no problems. Love living here.

[suffragette]

60. Thanks! Updated in OP. Also updated Seattle to 120,000. Amazing day.

[The Polack MSgt]

56. 20k in St Louis Missouri

An estimated number but the local Fox channel says 11-15 thousand so 20+ is a reasonable guess.

I will update when I get a better count

[suffragette]

187. Thanks! I added to OP.

[Tree-Hugger]

57. This is awesome news!

Thank you for reporting.

I hear Philadelphia had a YUGE turnout. I was unable to attend - and I am bummed - but a bunch of my friends went. Suburban rail lines going into the city were at max capacity for several runs.

My friends took a photo of my face with them so I was there in Spirit, Flat Stanley style.

[suffragette]

63. I love that you and they did this. I remember a long time ago at DU when a kind DUer

made a sign of all of those of us across the country who wanted to be at a DC march but couldn't go.

[BumRushDaShow]

59. More than 50,000 in Philadelphia

http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/Womens-March-Philadelphia-Inauguration-Thousands-Donald-Trump--411418875.html

and many thousands more hopped down to D.C. to join that one since it's about a 3 hour drive (or a couple hours on Amtrak).

[suffragette]

68. Thanks! Added to OP. And good point about many going to DC from their city.

[BumRushDaShow]

80. Thanks for the tally!!

[suffragette]

117. Glad to do it. I just hope I haven't missed any posts.

[blue neen]

[suffragette]

70. Me, too.

[CanonRay]

64. 350-400 in Florence, Oregon

population about 7500.

[suffragette]

78. Thanks! That's a significant part of population there. Glad to add to OP!

[janx]

67. IT'S NOT OVER!

Are you aware of what is happening in D.C. right now?

People here act as if it's over. I cannot believe what I'm seeing on live stream/Roku from NBC News!

[suffragette]

73. Just tuned into this. Am seeing video from many of today's marches. It's beautiful.

But tell me more about what was on when you posted.

[janx]

75. I am watching some live NBC stream that I'm getting through my Roku.

It has been going on for over an hour, since I turned it on. Loud, enthusiastic crowds, enormous crowds marching through the city! It's dark with reddish and green street lights.

I'll see if I can find it online via the computer.

The point is, this is by no means over!

[suffragette]

83. I turned on NBC news on Roku. I saw a bit of that flash by. Were they showing more of it earlier?

[janx]

87. Loads of it!

They seem to be showing it until the last of the marchers pass that location! They are so loud and enthusiastic--really fired up!

[llmart]

140. Not today....

or every day thereafter. This is just the beginning of making life for the Repukes and their idiotic leader, trump a living hell.

[BumRushDaShow]

76. I know their feed had moved to other cities earlier like Seattle

Am not sure if the street scene is D.C. or somewhere else (like NYC).

[janx]

81. I think I can see the end of the march now--flashing lights behind it.

But for the past hour or so, there was no end in sight.

[onetexan]

71. Thank you!!!

Due to a family emergency i couldn't attend march either. Seeing the numbers & pix of throngs of people is very inspiring & emboldening. I definitely will next time!
BTW is that number in LA correcT? WOW!!

[suffragette]

95. It's the number estimated by organizers. So many more attended than anticipated that they

Spilled down side streets.

http://touch.latimes.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-92388804/
The exact size of the protest was difficult to measure. Women’s march organizers put the number at 750,000.

The Los Angeles Police Department said in a statement that “well past” 100,000 people attended but did not provide a more precise number. One law enforcement source said officials found it difficult to measure the size because the demonstrators ended up marching down multiple streets.

Officials said it appeared to be the largest since a massive 2006 immigration march downtown. The LAPD estimated that march drew 500,000, but organizers insisted the number was higher.

Veteran activist Jorge Rodriguez, 64, who helped organize the 2006 demonstration, said he thought Saturday’s march appeared to be as large as the immigration event if not bigger.

[BBG]

72. Victoria, BC

2,000+ up here by our amateur count. Our northern neighbors are awesome.

[RBInMaine]

108. Where were these marches 3 fucking months ago? Glad to see it, but it was needed THEN!

[LAS14]

118. That's my question too. Given the comparisons between...

.... inauguration vs march turnout and 2009 vs 2017 TV ratings, WHERE WERE THESE VOTERS??????

[BumRushDaShow]

125. Remember - Hillary won the popular vote by almost 3,000,000

124. Local media says "more than 6,000" in Ann Arbor Michigan (Now it is 11,000!!)

Hey OP - see the reply to this - it is 11,000 now!

[Barack_America]

131. Now estimated over 11,000.

I was there. I think it's going to end up over 20,000. Not bad for a city of 115,000.

It was massive. Here's a video of where it started, before it started, with people still steaming in from all directions (I was still stuck in traffic at this point).

I couldn't go - I'm working a 12 hr day today, but I saw lots of pics and some video and I believe it. Unreal. I was at a few anti-war marches in A2 and one was estimated at 3,000 and I knew this looked a lot bigger.

But I plan to keep adding as many as possible. I wonder of there is any limit to the edits we're allowed.

[suffragette]

180. This is inspirational. It was started because a few women looked online and couldn't find

A march for Fort Worth. They thought only a few people would show up.
Many more clearly did. Glad to add to OP and thanks.

http://www.wfaa.com/news/local/fort-worth-womens-march/388597938

Leah Suasnovar remembers searching online for a women's march in Fort Worth and not seeing one. It was then she decided, along with a few other women, to start a march themselves. Suasnovar admits she had no experience doing it and had to learn on-the-fly.

~~~
"I'm overwhelmed because I thought it would be me and 20 of my friends walking down the street. I think it feels validating," said Leah.

A more than one-mile march will begin at the Tarrant County Courthouse and move up and down Main and Houston Streets. Organizers say it is for every cross-section of culture. Permits for the event were granted in the nick of time on Thursday.

"It's time for everyone to come together and say we're going to listen to each other and we are here together and we are all mothers and we care of about our children's education," said Ashley Paz, another organizer.

[Horse with no Name]

181. I didn't know that! Thank you.

A friend of mine went and took great pictures!

177. Los Angeles 750,000!!! SoCal rocks! Peaceful, great vibe, so jammed we could hardly move

My area, Santa Barbara, sent 11 charter busses, and I saw more contingents from Ventura. I saw a group who came from Nevada. This is a BFD.

I had SB group signs to follow, and my friend and I made sure to stay in sight of them as we worked our way along the route, buffeted on all sides like molecules in Brownian Motion. Because of this I ran into at least half a dozen friends of mine, all old campaigners from the BushCheney years. We have work to do, and we are ready.

There were a lot of great signs, but my favorite was: "I Can't Believe I am Still Protesting This Shit."

It was a fantastic experience. Onward!

[suffragette]

186. Thanks so much for sharing your experience of the day. Santa Barbara is beautiful.

11 charter buses! Wow, you guys had a convoy just from your hometown.

[E.A.B.]

179. San Diego: 30K-40K

The San Diego Union-Tribune (main establishment newspaper) quotes a "police supervisor" putting the crowd between 30,000 and 40,000.

Another article in the same paper says "perhaps" three thousand in the Escondido march. (Escondido is basically a suburb at a distance from San Diego.)

Both articles talk about how the marches were larger than expected. And there was intermittent rain, and San Diegans are terrible about what the rest of you folks consider normal weather...

There was supposed to be a protest also at Rep. Darrell Issa's office (in North County), but I don't know if that actually happened.

It's stunning and hopeful how far above expectations the actual numbers have been.

[dragonlady]

211. Total of the numbers on this list as of Sunday at 2:45 EST is 3,624,134

This calculation uses the lower number wherever a range is given, and many other locations could be added, so the exact number at the marches--which we can never know--is probably much higher.

[suffragette]

212. Wow! Thanks for doing this. Yes, this list still only has a portion of the many marches that took

place.

I think it's important that we acknowledge the all.

[Pacifist Patriot]

213. Melbourne, FL drew 100ish for Iraq war protests...

Over 500 yesterday on the Eau Gallie Causeway. Would have been more, but quite a few of us went over to Orlando or to DC. That's not a bad number for a red district.

[suffragette]

215. Thanks! Added to OP. Good point about it being a red district and how many joined other marches.

That's also the case for many other cities. Glad these voices are being heard. Thank you for standing up!

214. 10,000+ in Reno, NV (biggest protest in Reno history!)
