Hillary Clinton's Rally at ASU: Part Dance Party, Part Plea to Turn Arizona Blue
The New Times ^ | November 3, 2016 | Miriam Wasser

With the muted chants of a few protesters in the background — "Lock her up, lock her up" — at least 10,000 Hillary Clinton supporters packed into a field near Arizona State University's Sun Devil Fitness Complex Wednesday night and held a dance party while they waited for the candidate to arrive.

Unlike her competitor, Clinton's not known for holding huge rallies — the last time she came to Arizona back in March, she spoke to a few hundred people in a small high school gymnasium — but Wednesday night felt more like an outdoor concert than a political rally. With less than a week until Election Day, the Clinton campaign clearly isn't holding anything back. The venue was huge, the stage setup was colorful, the lights were big and bright, and a professional DJ was on hand to work up the crowd and get folks dancing.

....... The first attendees were admitted at about 3:30, and from that point on, the DJ blasted music — a playlist that included hits from Journey, Rihanna, and K'naan — and encouraged the crowd to dance.

... Clinton... came onstage.... wearing her photogenic mouth-wide-open smile.

We remember the ASU Calendar girls.

Is this the one where they had a long ramp with arm rails on both sides instead of 3 steps to get her on the stage

Funny; I recall the Fire Chief estimated Hillary’s crowd at under 6,000 (even with Farell performing) and Trump’s crowd more than double that.

I bet they were serving beer too. Heck, serve free beer at a college kid event and you can 10K to show up in a matter of minutes.

“Clinton’s not known for holding huge rallies”

As though she could, but just chooses not to.

The article says 10,000 attended. Were they passing out free drugs or something?

Maybe a Freeper that knows how to estimate crowd size from the wide angle video shots can prove or refute the 10,000 figure. The video I saw showed quite a few people. Also did not appear they were passing out free beers though.

That's what you get when a charlatan fakes happiness.

“Clinton, who is often said to be a little robotic on the stump, delivered a fiery speech. Her voice was hoarse — this was her fifth event of the day,” a pool reporter traveling with her campaign told the New Times.

That’s a huge lie, it was her only event of the day. She may have stopped at some polling stations, but no other event.

Who writes this tripe? The NYT lost almost $100 million by printing mouth manure like this.
